Web page news is out of date about versions

[gdt]

I noticed on repology.org that pkgsrc was out of date, and the version listed as current does not show up at http://coda.cs.cmu.edu/news.html but yet there is a tag on github (but not a release).

(Probably I have fallen off the list by entropy, or maybe I unsubscribed, but in any case I have not tried to run coda lately. I'll see about updating the pkgsrc package.)

Right, I see newer tags but no releases and they're not on the FTP site.

I figured any links to the ftp site were gone at this point, but it looks like some of the 20+ year old documentation still is referencing ftp.coda.cs.cmu.edu in various places.

More recent downloads are at http://coda.cs.cmu.edu/coda/

A lot of the releases were adding somewhat experimental features,
Coda-7 series was all about supported very large objects and some experimental plan9 server support as an alternative to the existing kernel module.
Coda-8 added helper processes which wrap the original UDP based RPC protocols in TLS tunnels.
Coda-8.1, I believe mostly added support for disconnected operation and reintegration on non-replicated volumes.
The point releases mostly fix various things that broke.

Thanks, would be nice to update the website. Also it is http only and that gets a (somewhat valid) Big Scary Warning.

Great to hear about TLS tunnels.

Thanks for the update. Is rpc2 always just in the coda tarball now? It's not distributed separately?
