+Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 1.2.0 - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux
+
+
+I am pleased to announce the availability of 
+   mdadm version 1.2.0
+It is available at
+   http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/source/mdadm/
+and
+   http://www.{countrycode}.kernel.org/pub/utils/raid/mdadm/
+
+as a source tar-ball and (at the first site) as an SRPM, and as an RPM for i386.
+
+mdadm is a tool for creating, managing and monitoring
+device arrays using the "md" driver in Linux, also
+known as Software RAID arrays.
+
+Release 1.2.0 is a bug-fix release over 1.1.0.
+
+    -   Fix bug where --daemonise required an argument.
+    -   In --assemble --verbose, print appropriate message if device is
+        not in devices= list
+    -   Updated mdadm.conf.5 to reflect fact that device= takes wildcards
+    -   Typos:  componenet -> component
+    -   Reduce size of "--help" message put excess into "--help-options"
+    -   Fix bug introduced when MD_SB_DISKS dependancy removed, and which
+        caused spares not be assembled properly.
+    -   Print appropriate message if --monitor --scan decides not to
+	monitor anything.  
+
+
+Development of mdadm is sponsored by CSE@UNSW: 
+  The School of Computer Science and Engineering
+at
+  The University of New South Wales
