+2004-03-06 multipath-tools-0.1.1
+	* include dlist.h in multipath main.c (PM Hahn)
+	* typo in hotplug script (PM Hahn)
+	* pass -9 opt to gzip for manpages (PM Hahn)
+2004-03-05 multipath-tools-0.1.0
+	* add the group_by_tur policy
+	* add the multipathd daemon for pathchecking & DM hot-reconfig
+	* multipath doesn't run twice
+	* massive cleanups, and code restructuring
+	* Avoid Kernel Bug when passing too small a buffer in do_inq()
+	* Sync with 2.6.3-udm4 target synthax (no more PG prio)
+2004-02-21 multipath-018
+	* From the Debian SID inclusion review (Philipp Matthias Hahn)
+		* use DESTDIR install prefix in the Makefile
+		* add man pages for devmap_name & multipath
+		* correct libsysfs.h includes
+		* fork the hotplug script in its own shell
+	* Sync with the kernel device mapper code as of 2.6.3-udm3
+	  ie. Remove the test interval parameter and its uses
+	* Remove superfluous scsi parameter passed from hotplug
+	* Add the man pages to the [un]install targets
+2004-02-17 multipath-017
+	* remove the restrictive -f flag.
+	  Introduce a more generic "-m iopolicy" one.
+	* remove useless "int with_sysfs" in env struct 
+2004-02-04 multipath-016
+	* add a GROUP_BY_SERIAL flag. This should be useful for
+	  controlers that activate they spare paths on simple IO
+	  submition with a penalty. The StorageWorks HW defaults to
+	  this mode, even if the MULTIBUS mode is OK.
+	* remove unused sg_err.c
+	* big restructuring : split devinfo.c from main.c. Export :
+		* void basename (char *, char *);
+		* int get_serial (int, char *);
+		* int get_lun_strings (char *, char *, char *, char *);
+		* int get_evpd_wwid(char *, char *);
+		* long get_disk_size (char *);
+	* stop passing struct env as param
+	* add devmap_name proggy for udev to name devmaps as per their
+	  internal DM name and not only by their sysfs enum name (dm-*)
+	  The corresponding udev.rules line is :
+	  KERNEL="dm-[0-9]*", PROGRAM="/sbin/devmap_name %M %m", NAME="%k", SYMLINK="%c"
+	* remove make_dm_node fn & call. Rely on udev for this.
+	* don't rely on the linux symlink in the udev/klibc dir since
+	  udev build doesn't use it anymore. This corrects build breakage
+2004-01-19 multipath-013
+	* update the DM target synthax to the 2.6.0-udm5 style
+2003-12-29 multipath-012
+	* check hotplug event refers to a block device; if not exit early
+	* refresh doc
+	* add the uninstall target in Makefile
+2003-12-22 multipath-010
+	* tweak the install target in Makefile
+	* stop passing fds as argument : this change enable a strict
+	  segregation of ugly 2.4 code
+	* sysfs version of get_lun_strings()
+	* be careful about the return of get_unique_id() since errors 
+	  formerly caught up by if(open()) in the caller fn are now returned
+	  by get_unique_id()
+	* send get_serial() in unused.c
+	* introduce dm-simplecmd for RESUME & SUSPEND requests
+	* split add_map() in setup_map() & dm-addmap()
+	* setup_map() correctly submits "SUSPEND-RELOAD-RESUME or CREATE"
+	  sequences instead of the bogus "RELOAD or CREATE"
+	* don't print .sg_dev if equal to .dev (2.6) in print_path()
+	* since the kernel code handles defective paths, remove all
+	  code to cope with them :
+		* move do_tur() to unused.c
+		* remove .state from path struct
+		* remove .state settings & conditionals
+	* add a cmdline switch to force maps to failover mode,
+	  ie 1 path per priority group
+	* add default policies to the whitelist array (spread io ==
+	  MULTIBUS / io forced to 1 path == FAILOVER)
+	* move get_disk_size() call out of add_map() to coalesce()
+	* comment tricky coalesce() fn
+	* bogus unsused.c file renamed to unused.c
+2003-12-20 multipath-010
+	* big ChangeLog update
+	* start to give a little control over target params :
+	  introduce cmdline arg -i to control polling interval
+	* cope with hotplug-style calling convention :
+	  ie "multipath scsi $DEVPATH" ... to avoid messing with
+	  online maps not concerned by an event
+	* example hotplug agent to drop in /etc/hotplug.d/scsi
+	* revert the run & resched patch : unless someone proves me
+	  wrong, this was overdesigned
+	* move commented out functions in unused.c
+	* update multipath target params to "udm[23] style"
+	* mp target now supports nr_path == 1, so do we
+	* add gratuitous free()
+	* push version forward
+2003-12-15 multipath-009
+	* Make the HW-specific get_unique_id switch pretty
+	* Prepare to field-test by whitelisting all known fibre array,
+	  try to fetch WWID from the standard EVPD 0x83 off 8 for everyone
+	* configure the multipath target with round-robin path selector and
+	  conservative default for a start (udm1 style) :
+	  yes it makes this release the firstreally useful one.
+	* temporarily disable map creation for single path device
+	  due to current restrictive defaults in the kernel target.
+	  Sistina should work it out.
+	* correct the strncmp logic in blacklist function.
+	* update the Makefiles to autodetect libgcc.a & gcc includes
+	  "ulibc-style". Factorisation of udevdirs & others niceties
+	* drop a hint about absent /dev/sd? on failed open()
+	* implement a reschedule flag in /var/run.
+	  Last thing the prog do before exit is check if a call to multipath
+	  was done (but canceled by /var/run/multipath.run check) during its
+	  execution. If so restart themain loop.
+	* implement a blacklist of sysfs bdev to not bother with for now
+	  (hd,md, dm, sr, scd, ram, raw).
+	  This avoid sending SG_IO to unappropiate devices.
+	* Adds a /var/run/multipath.run handling to avoid simultaneous runs.
+	* Remove a commented-out "printf"
+	* drop a libdevmapper copy in extras/multipath;
+	  maybe discussions w/Sistina folks will bring a better solution in the future.
+	* drop a putchar usage in libdevmapper to compile cleanly with klibc
+	* drop another such usage of my own in main.c
+	* massage the Makefile to compile libdevmapper against klibc
+	* use "ld" to produce the binary rather than "gcc -static"
+	* stop being stupid w/ uneeded major, minor & dev in main.c:dm_mk_node()
+	* reverse to creating striped target for now because the multipath target
+	  is more hairy than expected initialy
+	* push the version code to 009 to be in synch w/ udev
+2003-11-27 multipath-007
+	* removes sg_err.[ch] deps
+	* makes sure the core code play nice with klibc
+	* port the sysfs calls to dlist helpers
+	* links against udev's sysfs (need libsysfs.a & dlist.a)
+	* finally define DM_TARGET as "multipath" as Joe posted the code today (not tested yet)
+	* push version forward (do you want it in sync with udev version?)
+2003-11-19
+	* merged in udev-006 tree
+2003-09-18  Christophe Varoqui <christophe.varoqui@free.fr>
+	* multipath 0.0.1 released.
+	* Initial release.
