-0.97.1

+0.97.2

 ------

-This is a bugfix release recommended for all users. Please refer to the

-ChangeLog file for details.

+ClamAV 0.97.2 fixes problems with the bytecode engine, Safebrowsing detection,

+hash matcher, and other minor issues. Please see the ChangeLog file for

+details.

+

+*** Announcement ***

+

+The ClamAV project is launching a new service called "Third Party web

+interface". It will allow selected individuals/organizations to publish

+ClamAV Virus Databases (CVD) through the ClamAV mirror network.

+

+If you choose to publish your signatures through our Third Party

+web interface you will benefit from the following:

+

+- before publishing the signatures, we will test them for

+  false positives against our false positive file collection.

+- before publishing the signatures, we'll verify that the latest two major

+  versions of ClamAV can load them correctly.

+- the signatures will be digitally signed and packaged into a single

+  .cvd compressed file.

+- there will be no ".UNOFFICIAL" suffix in the detection names.

+- a custom prefix will be added to the detection names, identifying the

+  organization which published the signature.

+- updates will be distributed both as full CVD files and cdiff

+  incremental updates. Users will benefit from lower network traffic.

+- the .cvd and .cdiff files will be distributed through the

+  ClamAV mirror network.

+- the service should result in faster remediation of false positives.

+- ClamAV users will be able to download the third party databases

+  using freshclam, by adding a single line to freshclam.conf, what

+  should make signature maintenance significantly easier.

+

+The service is still in beta, you are welcome to contact Luca Gibelli

+<luca*clamav.net> if you intend to join the beta program.

+

+We especially welcome those who already distribute their own unofficial

+signatures to join. A list of databases distributed by the new service

+will be available at http://www.clamav.net/download/cvd/3rdparty

+

+We will be happy to answer any questions you might have.
