Today, we released the first beta of LSB 3.2. If all goes well, this will hopefully be the only beta.
We’ve been working on 3.2 for a while, and we’re really excited about it. We’ve added quite a few interfaces, based on feedback from application vendors and others. There are whole new sections: printing support, Perl and Python, FreeType, Qt 4, and trial use support (our new name for “optional”) for Xrender, Xft, and the ALSA API.

A while back, I posted a set of instructions on how to test a Linux distribution for LSB compliance. With the 3.1 update, testing has gotten a lot easier.

OK, I’ve been busy, which is why I haven’t said much recently. But in case you haven’t noticed, my old employer, the Free Standards Group, has merged with another open-source consortium (Open Source Development Labs, or OSDL) to form the Linux Foundation. I’ve survived the merger, and am still doing most of what I was doing before.
