-E2fsprogs 1.33-WIP (March 30, 2003)
+E2fsprogs 1.33-WIP (April 14, 2003)
 ===================================
 
+Added a new utility program, logsave, which captures the output of a
+command in a log file, even if the containing directory hasn't been
+mounted yet (in which case the it saves the output in memory until it
+can write out the logfile).  This is useful for capturing the
+output of fsck during the boot sequence.
+
+Fixed some portability problems that were causing problems under
+the Cygwin32 environment.
+
+Mke2fs now interprets a negative number to the -b option as a minimum
+block size.
+
+Fixed a bug in mke2fs which was incorrectly checking the argument to
+the -g option if the default block size was used.  (Addresses Debian
+bug #188319)
+
+Fsck now explicitly ignores tmpfs and devpts, and it will complain if
+it can not find filesystem checkers for jfs, reseirfs, and xfs.
+
+E2fsck now updates the global free block and inode counters from the
+block group specific counters quietly.  This is needed for an
+experimental patch which eliminates locking the entire filesystem when
+allocating blocks or inodes; if the filesystem is not unmounted
+cleanly, the global counts may not be accurate.
+
+Imported bug fixes to the EVMS plugin from the EVMS 2.0 tree.  (EVMS
+2.0 is not yet supported; this only pulled in the bug fixes: fixed
+possible hangs caused by bugs in calling waitpid, and not setting the
+pipe to non-blocking mode; also fixed a file descriptor leak; made
+sure all functions call log entry/exit functions.)
+
+Badblocks now flushes its output file as bad blocks are discovered.
+
+The uuid library is now more paranoid about assuming the correctness
+of the /dev/random device; it mixes in a stream of bytes from
+random/srandom, just in case.
