-
-Release 0.4.11
-
- *	Added async writes.
- *	Fixed bug where two rpciod's would be started when insmod'ing
-	both nfs.o and nfsd.o.
-
-Release 0.4.12
-
- *	Fixed compile problem after renaming some debug macros.
- *	Improved readdir cache, which can now hold up to 16 (configurable)
-	readdir replies.
- *	Fixed async write bug(s)
- *	client file locking now does at least lock/unlock without
-	crashing the machine
- *	Started to work on NFS swapping
- *	nfs_get_super no longer requires the file handle passed by
-	mount but does a straight xprt_create_proto().
- *	TCP reconnect should work now (not yet tested for long disconnect
-	periods, but it does work if you kill and restart nfsd).
-
-Release 0.4.13
-
- *	More writeback bugs removed.
- *	Added a modified (and ansified) tirpc rpcgen to get rid of all
-	the warnings in files generated from *.x descriptions. That old Sun
-	code is a real mess.
- *	Cleaned up nfsd export handling a bit. All syscalls now
-	take dev/ino rather than the pathname.
- *	Added sysctl interface to set/get debug flags (see tools/rpcdebug).
- *	Cleaned up Makefiles.
- *	(experimental) Gathered writes for nfsd (use the wdelay option in
-	/etc/exports).
- *	Fixed silly bug in nfs_readdir (the in-place decoding of readdir
-	replies requires a temporary buffer).
- *	Fixed readdir bug in nfsd (long directories were truncated).
-
-Release 0.4.14
-
- *	Upgraded to kernel 2.0.23
- *	Fixed bug in rpcdebug
- *	readdir still didn't work right in nfsd. Argh!
- *	nfsd would refuse to create symlinks with slashes in them:-)
- *	nfsd's RPC reply cache should now work again.
- *	Heavily modified rpc.statd for more robust callback/notify handling
-
-Release 0.4.17
-
- *	Upgraded to kernel 2.1.14
- *	Got lockd working with HPUX in most areas.
-
-Release 0.4.19
-
- *	RPC server UDP sockets now receive the sk_buff directly rather
-	than going through sock->ops->recvmsg.
-	Also got rid of all those cli/sti's and replaced them with
-	disable_bh/enable_bh calls.
- *	Fixed a bug in nfsd's handling of rename and friends.
-
-Release 0.4.20
-
- *	Some bugfixes, esp in the writeback code
- *	Avoid some unnecessary cli/sti pairs
- *	Added nhfsstone
-
-Release 0.4.21
-
- *	Minor bugfixes
- *	Moved to post-2.1.16 module handling code
-
-Release 0.4.22
-
- *	Fixed a bug that made rpcinfo -u host nlockmgr provoke a kernel
-	oops.
- *	Upgraded to mount-2.6b
- *	Added NFSv3 support to mountd and nfsd
- *	Made sure it compiles with glibc2.
