There is a new minor release of fortify-headers, namely 3.0.2. Minor releases means no new features, only bug fixes and improvements, mainly about portability regarding weird compilers. Oh and also a lot more tests. There are only 16 commits since the last release, so I think we can skip the proper changelog for this one. Adoption-wise, Alpine Linux recently moved from 1.1 to 3.0.1, bringing FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 to all its users. The main goal is this release is to have fortify-header there, without any patches/fixes. We'll see how it goes. As is now usual, the release is available on github, and the tag has been pushed on 2f30 as well.
