+Changes Prior to 1.10.0 release
+ - Fix bug with --config=partitions
+ - Open sub-devices with O_EXCL to detect if already in use
+
+Changes Prior to 1.9.0 release
+ - Fix rpm build problem (stray %)
+ - Minor manpage updates
+ - Change "dirty" status to "active" as it was confusing people.
+ - --assemble --auto recognises 'standard' name and insists on using
+ the appropriate major/minor number for them.
+ - Remove underscore from partition names, so partitions of
+ "foo" are "foo1", "foo2" etc (unchanged) and partitions of
+ "f00" are "f00p1", "f00p2" etc rather than "f00_p1"...
+ - Use "major", "minor", "makedev" macros instead of
+ "MAJOR", "MINOR", "MKDEV" so that large device numbers work
+ on 2.6 (providing you have glibc 2.3.3 or later).
+ - Add some missing closes of open file descriptors.
+ - Reread /proc/partition for every array assembled when using
+ it to find devices, rather than only once.
+ - Make "mdadm -Ss" stop stacked devices properly, by reversing the
+ order in which arrays are stopped.
+ - Improve some error messages.
+ - Allow device name to appear before first option, so e.g.
+ mdadm /dev/md0 -A /dev/sd[ab]
+ works.
+ - Assume '-Q' if just a device is given, rather than being silent.
