Unionfs 1.0.14 has just been released. The next version of unionfs that will be released will be 1.1.0. This release will signify a split in the 2.4 and 2.6 source tree. We will continue to deal with security issues under Linux 2.4, but feature enhancements and future development will be focused on 2.6 only. Others can continue to fix bugs and problems on the 1.0 branch for 2.4, and we will be glad to apply any patches they put forth, but want to focus our resources on stabilizing the 1.1 branch (for 2.6).

* Unionfs 1.0.14
Features:
- Dropped unmaintained setattr,diropaque,delete=first and mount flags
- Updated unionfs.4 to reflect default mount modes
- You can use the root of the Union to remove branches with unionctl
- Use official Debian packaging files.
- Linux 2.6.13 support.

Bug fixes:
- Fixed several dentry refcount bug introduced by new deletion framework.
- Fixed uninitialized fd_set in the query ioctl.
- Branch reference counting now works across insertion and removal of branches.
 This prevents the branch counts from getting "confused".
- Handle "/" as a branch in unionctl.
- Removed static buffer for debug prints in favor of vprintk.
- NFS silly renames avoided during several cases.
- Attempting a write lock causes a copyup, so that the underying flock will
 work.
- Cleaned up mount option parsing.
- Improved link counting for directories.
