Notable changes include updates for newer Linux kernels (including 2.6.25),
Solaris 11 client support updates, and updated MacOS X support, a fix for
a potential fileserver deadlock, as well as improvements to the host tracking
in the fileserver and updates to ubik to prevent database truncation when
network links between database servers are unreliable. Since the previous
version there are fixes to the Linux client support as well as additional
resource cleanup.
Please assist the gatekeepers by deploying this release and providing positive
or negative feedback. Bug reports should be filed to
openafs-bugs@openafs.org . Reports of success should be sent to

This release candidate was brought to you by beer and bacon: 2 great
tastes that taste great together.
