Ardent zlib cognoscenti,

zlib 1.3 has been released. You can find it here:

and here:

This release was motivated by the latest versions of Clang outright rejecting the venerable K&R-style function definitions, due to their planned removal in the yet-to-be-issued C23 standard. zlib 1.3 has no support for building with K&R, pre-ANSI function definitions. zlib 1.3 also has several bug fixes and other improvements, which are detailed in the ChangeLog.

Mark
