Subject: [Announce] sg3_utils-1.34 available

sg3_utils is a package of command line utilities for sending
SCSI and some ATA commands to devices. This package targets
the linux kernel (lk) 3, 2.6 and lk 2.4 series. It also has
ports to FreeBSD, Tru64, Solaris, and Windows (cygwin and mingw).

This version adds sg_xcopy and sg_copy_results (contributed by
Hannes Reinecke). This version tracks various changes made by
www.t10.org since January 2012.
