Do you have any suggestions on where we could display this information?

A matrix of Volume and File limits across client and server versions.
 But really this matrix and changes to it should be in every release notes
of every release.   (or a pointer to where it lives)

If the only place this information is "archived" is in the mailing list
and buried in commit comments, the bar is WAY too high for new users.   (or
us old users!)

For our latest problem, I just need to confirm explicitly.  If we have
researchers that need to read/write to:

   - Volumes larger than 2TB
   - FILES larger than 2TB

Is there any combination of client/server versions that are safe for the
data.  (Both windows and nix clients)

Can we apply quotas on those volumes under any client versions?


 Thanks All
-Matt
