rsync 3.4.4 released with regression fixes

Andrew Tridgell has announcedthe release of rsync 3.4.4 withfixes for the regressions introduced in the 3.4.3 release. He alsonotes there will be an rsync 3.5.0 soon, with many more securityupdates:

As part of the 3.5.0 release update I have created arsync-security@lists.samba.org mailing list for anyone who is willingto do testing of the 3.5.0 release. The idea is to try to reduce thechance of more regressions by expanding the set of testers of thisrelease. I have seeded it with people who were involved in past rsyncsecurity issues. If you want to join this list then the easiest waywould be for you to be vouched for by someone on thedistros@vs.openwall.org list or someone else I already trust.

My apologies for the regressions in the 3.4.3 release and I hope futuresecurity updates for rsync will have less issues. The greatly expanded testsuite in rsync 3.5 combined with the rsync-security mailing list shouldhelp.
