GNU userv 1.0.0 is now released.
userv (pronounced `you-serve') is, in the words of the specification,
a Unix system facility to allow one program to invoke another
when only limited trust exists between them.
There is now also an associated package userv-utils, currently at
version 0.1. It contains a collection of miscellaneous userv
services, which can serve as examples and programs in their own right.
Note that the documentation and probably quality of these leave a lot
to be desired. Contributions of documentation, installation
instructions, improvements, etc, for userv-utils would be very
welcome.
For more information, including the on-line specification and the
distribution files, visit
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~ian/userv/
userv is also available via the GNU FTP site and its mirrors.
1.0.0 will be available there soon if it isn't already.
If you have queries, please join the userv-discuss mailing list in
preference to mailing the author. Thank you.
