Subject: ANNOUNCE - mdadm 0.7.1



mdadm 0.7.1 is now available at

  http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/sources/mdadm/

There are even RPMs in an RPM subdirectory, thanks to some guidance
from Chris Siebenmann and others.

This is 0.7.1 instead of 0.8 because there are some half-finished
extensions.  In particular there are some very incomplete man pages,
which is some sense can be worse than none (It look unprofessional).

My main goal before I call it 1.0 is to make sure --follow works properly.
I also want to:
    add --query as discussed earlier on this list
    flesh out mdadm.conf.5 and md.4 man pages.
