[OpenAFS-announce] OpenAFS 1.3.78 released

[Derrick J Brashear]

OpenAFS 1.3.78 is now available for download from the openafs.org web
site.

For Windows, 1.3.77 is still the currently supported stable client.

For UNIX, 1.3.78 is a milestone in the 1.4 release cycle. Starting in 1.3.70, 
platforms with pthreads support provide a volserver which like the fileserver 
and butc backup system uses pthreads. Solaris versions 8 and above, AIX, IRIX, 
OpenBSD, Darwin, MacOS and Linux clients support large (>2gb) files, and 
provided fileservers have this option enabled. HP-UX may also support large 
files, but has not yet been verified. We hope sites which can do so will make 
use of 1.3.75 on their UNIX platforms and provide feedback to help us fix any 
remaining issues before 1.4 is released.

The UNIX client includes a number of updates, including many for Linux 2.6.
