+Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 2.0-devel-2 DEVELOPMENT RELEASE - A tool for managing Soft RAID under Linux
+
+
+I am pleased to announce the availability of
+ mdadm version 2.0-devel-2
+It is available at
+ http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/source/mdadm/
+and
+ http://www.{countrycode}.kernel.org/pub/linux/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 2.0-devel-2 is a development release that quit possible has
+ bugs. It released in the hope of getting wider testing.
+ It adds support for version-1 superblock which allow more that 28 devices
+ in an array (among other things) and for bitmap-based-write-intent-logging
+ which can improve resync speed after an unclean shutdown.
+
+This release contains assorted fixes and forward-ports from 1.12.0
+
+Development of mdadm is sponsored by CSE@UNSW:
+ The School of Computer Science and Engineering
+at
+ The University of New South Wales
