| Theodore Ts'o | 24757fa | 1997-04-29 17:39:27 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 4 | If the version string in the file version.h contains the |
| Theodore Ts'o | c786fec | 2000-07-27 21:06:07 +0000 | [diff] [blame^] | 5 | string "pre-", or "WIP" then this package must be distributed |
| 6 | in source form only. You can give a copy of the binary for |
| 7 | e2fsck to help a friend recover his or her filesystem, as the |
| 8 | need arises. However, "pre" or "WIP" indicates that this |
| 9 | release is under development, and available for ALPHA testing. |
| 10 | So for your protection as much as mine, I'd rather not have it |
| 11 | appear in a some distribution --- especially not a CD-ROM |
| 12 | distribution! |

| 15 | http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net. If you need to make a distribution, |
| 16 | that's the one you should use. If there is some reason why you'd like |
| 17 | a more recent version that is still in ALPHA testing for your |
| 18 | distribution, please contact me (tytso@mit.edu), and we can see if we |
| 19 | can't come to an arrangement. The release schedules for this package |
| 20 | are flexible, if you give me enough lead time. |
