I've a problem with the development of LVM.
It seems that you (Sistina guys) are sorry that LVM 1.0 is delayed. You
SHOULD'NT!
By definition Open-Source/free software don't have deadlines! They are
released when they are GOOD, not when marketing wants to! That's why it's
better than M$ software.
See Linux 2.4, delayed ten of times. No problem Linus, make Linux good and
it's enough for me!

So, continue your good work until LVM 1.0 is READY, not until people are
happy that you release it.

Thanks a lot for your work on LVM and bye
