+Subject: ANNOUNCE: mdadm 4.0 - A tool for managing md Soft RAID under Linux
+
+I am pleased to announce the availability of
+ mdadm version 4.0
+
+It is available at the usual places:
+ http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
+and via git at
+ git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/mdadm/mdadm.git
+ http://git.kernel.org/cgit/utils/mdadm/
+
+The update in major version number primarily indicates this is a
+release by it's new maintainer. In addition it contains a large number
+of fixes in particular for IMSM RAID and clustered RAID support. In
+addition this release includes support for IMSM 4k sector drives,
+failfast and better documentation for journaled RAID.
+
+This is my first release of mdadm. Please thank Neil Brown for his
+previous work as maintainer and blame me for all the bugs I caused
+since taking over.
+
+Jes Sorensen, 2017-01-09
