# Release verification — Lantern Terminal 0.6.0

11 November 2026. Adds the BBS Directory: the Synchronet BBS List (Telnet first, from the Kalgoorlie Retro BBS website) and the Telnet BBS Guide, downloaded on request, with Recent BBSes first, your own BBSes, search, connect in a BBS tab and Save as session.

- All 17 ctest suites pass on Linux. The new BBS Directory suite (35 checks) runs against a local web server and local stand-in BBSes: downloads with ETag and If-None-Match, merge rules (used and user entries never changed, new addresses offered, unused entries updated or removed, duplicates shown once), Recent order with the Kalgoorlie entry first, connecting to the listed address and port, the Telnet-or-SSH choice for SSH-only BBSes, Save as session at the top level, and the directory kept after a restart.
- The Windows build passed its BBS Directory checks under Wine on a private display (download, connect, files saved, Save as session).
- Tried against the real lists: 182 Synchronet BBSes (Telnet first) and 983 from the Telnet BBS Guide, merged in about 1.5 seconds; a second update reported both unchanged.
- A test build was used on a real Windows PC before release, including connecting to Vertrauen by Telnet from the directory.
- See TEST-RESULTS.md for the full list of checks, including those carried over from 0.5.0.
