LiS 2.18.2 was released January 4, 2006.

The OpenSS7 Project's most recent release of LiS 2.18.2 is now
available.  It includes libraries, documentation and all the
things that you need to run STREAMS for OpenSS7 SS7 packages
and other LiS based products.  The release is available as a
tarball, SRPM and a set of RPMs.  See the OpenSS7 Project
download page http://www.openss7.org/download.html for the
autoconf tarballs.  See the OpenSS7 Project STREAMS package page
http://www.openss7.org/streams_pkg.html for the tarballs, SRPMs
and RPMs.

This release suppresses versioning of LiS exported symbols and
restores to a large degree binary compatibility of interface
functions with LiS 2.18.0; it corrects a few minor errors in the
build process, corrects the install-strip target, adds memory
versions of io wrappers, lis_printk pataches placed on
linux-streams list, HP patches, modifications to putq, putbq,
insq, appq; and dejagnu patches.

Also, this release includes the pipe performance programs and
POSIX conformance test suite used with Linux Fast-STREAMS used
for comparison testing between LiS and Linux Fast-STREAMS.
These programs were used to generate the comparison performance
test results http://www.openss7.org/streams_perf.html and
conformance test results.  http://www.openss7.org/streams_pics.html

This the the OpenSS7 Project's second, and likely last,
LiS-2.18.0-based release of LiS.  The release includes all of
the improvements previously applied to the LiS-2.16.18 releases.
The OpenSS7 Project will be replacing LiS with Linux
Fast-STREAMS in all further production releases.

See the ChangeLog and NEWS in the release for more information.
Also, see the doc/manual/LiS.pdf manual in the release (also
available online at http://www.openss7.org/LiS_manual.html ).
