Here are the topics that have been cooking.  Commits prefixed
with '-' are only in 'pu' while commits prefixed with '+' are
in 'next'.  The topics list the commits in reverse chronological
order.

* tt/mkfs-types (Tue Feb 19 08:32:58 2008 -0500) 1 commit
 - New mke2fs types parsing --- IN PROGRESS

	Eric is working on the documentation and reworking the way we
	handle the command parsing.

* tt/64bit-bitmaps (Mon Feb 18 23:54:53 2008 -0500) 1 commit
 - Initial design for 64-bit bitmaps

	Not touched.

* js/flex-bg (Wed Feb 13 20:47:50 2008 -0600) 1 commit
 - e2fsprogs: New bitmap and inode table allocation for FLEX_BG v2

	Next on my list to audit.

* js/uninit (Sun Oct 21 21:04:24 2007 -0500) 11 commits
 + Add m_uninit test case
 + Add new m_lazy test case
 + Make e2fsck uninit block group aware
 + Make debugfs uninit block group aware
 + Make resize2fs uninit block group aware
 + Make dumpe2fs uninit block group aware
 + Make tune2fs uninit block group aware
 + Add support for creating filesystems using uninit block group
 + Rename feature name from gdt_checksum to uninit_groups
 + Add uninit block group support to various libext2fs functions
 + Add initial checksum support for the gdt_checksum/uninit_group
   feature

	Merged into next.  At this point e2fsck on the 'next' branch
	should be able to deal with any valid ext4 filesystem; if it
	doesn't, that's a bug.

* ak/undo-mgr (Mon Aug 13 15:56:26 2007 +0530) 6 commits
 - e2fsprogs: Add test case for undoe2fs
 - e2fsprogs: Fix the resize inode test case
 - e2fsprogs: Support for large inode migration.
 - e2fsprogs: Make mke2fs use undo I/O manager.
 - e2fsprogs: Add undoe2fs
 - e2fsprogs: Add undo I/O manager

	Unchanged from last time.

        The test cases are missing an expected file.

        Also, we need to chage "mke2fs use undo I/O manager" so it
        only does it if the uninit group patch is enabled.
