+Changes Prior to 1.4.0 release
+ - Document fact that creating a raid5 array really creates a
+ degraded array with a spare.
+ - Add "spares=" tag to config file and generate it wit --detail and
+ --examine
+ - Add "SparesMissing" event when --monitor first sees an array and
+ it doesn't have the enough spare devices.
+ - Add --update=summaries for --assemble to update summary
+ information in superblock, and correct other inconsistancies in
+ the superblock.
+ - Add --test option to --detail to set a meaningful exit status.
+
+Changes Prior to 1.3.0 release
+ - Make 'size' and unsigned long in Create to allow creation of
+ larger arrays.
+ - Explicitly flag spare devices as 'spare' in --detail and --examine
+ output. Previously they simply had no flags lists.
+ - Make MailCmd (for monitor) configurable in Makefile, and default
+ to "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t". Also split out the warning related
+ flags into CWFLAGS for easier build configurability.
+ - Minor bugfix in Manage code.
+ - --monitor now notices and reports degraded arrays at startup using
+ "DegradedArray" event, and also has a --oneshot option to only
+ report DegradedArrays, and then exit.
+ - Small man-page clarification w.r.t. raid levels and raid4 in
+ particular.
+ - Disallow creation of arrays with only one device as this is
+ probably a mistake. --force will override this check.
+ - Correct some misleading documentation in the "mdadm --create --help"
+ message.
+ - Ignore chunksize if raid1 or multipath.
+ - Explicit statement in man page that raid-disks cannot be changed
+ after array is created.
+ - Improve message when attempting to start an array with
+ insufficient devices. Instead of required the array to be full,
+ we only require it has as many active devices as last time.

Changes Prior to 1.2.0 release
- Fix bug where --daemonise required an argument.
- In --assemble --verbose, print appropriate message if device is
