Ksh
Jul 20, 2023

ksh93u+m is the ksh93 reboot aims to develop bugfixes to the last stable release 93u+ 2012-08-01 of ksh93, formerly developed by AT&T Software Technology AST. This ksh 93u+m reboot now incorporates many of these bugfixes, plus patches from OpenSUSE, Red Hat, and Solaris, as well as many new fixes from the community.
Between 2017 and 2020 there was an ultimately unsuccessful attempt to breathe new life into the KornShell by extensively refactoring the last unstable AST beta version 93v-. While that ksh2020 effort is now abandoned and still has many critical bugs, it also had a lot of bugs fixed. More importantly, the AST issue tracker now contains a lot of documentation on how to fix those bugs, which made it possible to backport many of them to the last stable release instead.
The shells/ksh port tracks releases.
