Procps 2.0.8 27 Sep 2002
Procps is the package containing various system monitoring tools, like ps, top, vmstat, free, kill, sysctl, uptime and more. After a long period of inactivity procps maintenance is active again and suggestions, bugreports and patches are always welcome on the procps list.
The plan is to release a procps 2.1.0 around the time the 2.6.0 kernel comes out, with maybe one extra intermediary release between now and then. Various features and code cleanups are planned, the /proc changes in 2.5 are also sure to keep the procps maintainers busy...
You can download procps 2.0.8 from:

If you have feedback (or patches) for the procps team, feel free to mail us at:
