News
This is the place to find news, I've put up this
page to allow me to put up updates and/or information about things that
are happening with the LVM Petition web page.
- Wed Sep 8 05:43:56 CDT 1999:
- Added the News - section.
- Today I sent off an
e-mail
to Linus, informing him of our effort to gather signatures from
people who have an interest in getting LVM into the Linux kernel.
- Heinz informed
us/me that Stephen Tweedie, Ted Ts'o and Hans Reiser, all had
shown their support by signing.
- Feel free to reload the page every once in a while - but there is
no need to do so every minute - the page(s) don't get that much
traffic :) If you are the person connecting from the IP
212.169.168.245, I ask kindly that you reduce the interval at
which you poll the petition page, to something more sedate, like
every 5 minutes... Thank you.

- Concern about being able to snarf the e-mail adresses from the
petition page was voiced yesterday, and I've made appropriate
changes.
- Tue Feb 22 12:48:35 CST 2000:
- Today I recieved a post
on the Linux-LVM Mailing list mentioning that LVM had made it
into the 2.3.47
Linux kernel. This is a big day for us all LVM'ers out there... :)
- I also went though and fixed all the (broken) links to the posts
from the linux-lvm mailing list - apparently Mike re-did the
archives, and I was unaware of this change... All should be well
now.
- Wed Sep 11 09:09:11 CDT 2002:
- This will probably be the very last news update on here. This
petition is expired - LVM did finally make it into the linux
kernel, and everybody's happy. Enjoy, people. :)
