Stability improvements: The new release fixes a number of bugs (see the issue tracker) and significantly improves the overall stability of TaPaSCo. We have also extended our CI pipeline to make sure that in the future we catch bugs as early as possible.
We provide archives containing packages for the TaPaSCo runtime as well as the kernel module for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Fedora Workstation 30 for download here. Check out the CI pipeline artifacts for binaries for even more OS versions (Ubuntu & Fedora).
