+Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 2.3 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux
+
+I am pleased to announce the availability of
+ mdadm version 2.3
+
+It is available at the usual places:
+ http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/source/mdadm/
+and
+ http://www.{countrycode}.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
+
+mdadm is a tool for creating, managing and monitoring
+device arrays using the "md" driver in Linux, also
+known as Software RAID arrays.
+
+Release 2.3 fixes an assortment of bugs including the "--assemble --scan"
+crash. It also makes mdadm better at handling very large arrays.
+Finally, it adds some functionality to support some pending kernel
+features such as raid5 reshaping.
+
+Changelog Entries:
+ - Try /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf if /etc/mdadm.conf doesn't exist.
+ This provided compatability for Debian.
+ - Fixed for version-1 superblock:
+ report chunksize for raid6 and raid10
+ make sure device size used is a multiple of chunksize
+ - Fix "--assemble --scan" crash.
+ - Fix completely failure to create array on ppc64
+ - Fix memcmp in place of memcpy
+ - A few minor improvements to online help
+ - Clean up usage of 'long long' for used-size of devices, so
+ that it is possible to create a raid1 of 7TB devices!
+ - Make internal bitmaps work on 7TB raid1 arrays.
+ - Provide error message if --examine doesn't find any superblock.
+ - Report 'reshape' status in --examine - this depends on kernel
+ patches that are not yet finalised.
+ - Report bitmap status in --detail and --examine
+ - Default to v1 superblocks instead of v0.90 if the array
+ is too big for 0.90 to handle.
+ - Sort the output of "mdadm --detail --scan" so that it is
+ in a suitable order for assembling arrays. i.e. components come
+ before an array that they are part of.
+ - Print size of large reiserfs array properly went warning of
+ possible confilcts.
+
+Development of mdadm is sponsored by
+ SUSE Labs, Novell Inc.
