	spotted by Terje Oseberg
	
2004-09-13  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Make requests non-interruptible so race with FORGET is avoided.
	This is only a temporary solution
	
2004-09-09  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix bug in case two FORGETs for the same node are executed in
	the wrong order.  Bug spotted and endured for months by Franco
	Broi, and logfile for solution provided by Terje Oseberg

2004-09-01  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Add -D_REENTRANT to the compile flags
 
2004-08-16  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Change release method to be non-interruptible.  Fixes bug

	* Released 1.3
	
2004-07-08  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* When performing create or remove operation, refresh the parent's
	attributes on next revalidate, as i_nlink (and maybe size/time)
	could be inacurate.

2004-07-06  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Make RELEASE method synchronous.  This fixes an abort in libfuse
	if FORGET was received earlier than the last RELEASE (bug found
	with the LTP test-suite)

	* Fix file corruption in case of bigread option. (bug found with
	LTP)

	* Minor fix in read:  print debug info even if read size is zero

2004-07-04  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Fix kernel hang on mkfifo under 2.4 kernels (spotted and patch
	by Mattias Wadman)

	* Fix file offset wrap around at 4G when doing large reads

	* Change passing fuse include dir to 2.6 kernel make system more
	robust (hopefully fixes problems seen on SuSE 9.1)

	* Fix deadlock between page writeback completion and truncate
	(bug found by Valient Gough with the fsx-linux utility)


2004-06-22  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Released 1.2
	
2004-06-22  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

2004-04-09  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

2004-02-12  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Released 1.1
	
2004-01-29  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Properly check if the inode exists in fuse_invalidate
	
2004-01-27  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Added -q option for fusermount

	* fuse_unmount() now uses -q option of fusermount, so no error is
	printed if the cause of the program exit is that the filesystem
	has already been unmounted

	* Fix i_nlink correctness after rmdir/unlink

2004-01-26  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Released 1.1-pre2

	* Write all pending data before a RELEASE operation

	* Replaced fusermount option '-d xxx' with '-n xxx' so it doesn't
	get confused with '-d' of fuse_main() (sorry about this change)

	* New fusermount option '-l' which enables big reads.  Big reads
	are now disabled by default.

	* fuse_main() can accept fusermount arguments after a '--'

2004-01-19  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Support for exporting filesystem over NFS (see README.NFS)

2004-01-14  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Support non-blocking writepage on 2.6.  This makes FUSE behave
	much more nicely in low-memory situations

	* Fix 32-bit dev handling in getattr and mknod for 2.6 kernels.
	(Note: the mknod method does not yet use 32bit device number)

	  python development practice

2003-12-11  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>

	* Add file locking for mount/unmount (based on patch by Valient
	Gough)

2003-12-11  David McNab <david@rebirthing.co.nz>

	* Python filesystem - was broken with python2.3, now fixed:
	   - changed PyTuple_* calls to PySequence_*, because os.lstat
	     is no longer returning a pure tuple
	   - changed PyInt_Check() calls to also call PyLong_Check,
	     to cover for cases (eg os.lstat) where longs are returned
	   - Added support for file 'release' handling, which IMO is
	     essential since this signals to a FS that writes to a file
	     are complete (and therefore the file can now be disposed of
	     meaningfully at the python filesystem's discretion)
	   - Added '__init__' handler to base Fuse class, which allows
	     your Python class to know the mountpoint and mount args,
	     as attributes myfs.mountpoint, myfs.optlist, myfs.optdict
	
	* General:
	   - added 'mount.fuse' script (in util/ dir), which is meant to be
	     symlinked from /sbin, and which allows FUSE filesystems to
	     be mounted with the 'mount' command, and listed in fstab;
	     also, mount arguments get passed to your filesystem


2003-11-04  Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
