* Noteworthy changes in release ?.? (????-??-??) [?]
+** Bug fixes
+
+ Fix numerous small leaks in both the library and the UI.
+
+** Changes in behavior
+
+ Remove all FS-related (file system-related) sub-commands; these commands
+ are no longer recognized because they were all dependent on parted "knowing"
+ too much about file system: mkpartfs, mkfs, cp, move, check, resize.
+ This change removes not just the user interface bits, but also the
+ library functions and nearly all of the underlying FS-munging code.
+ The code embedded in Parted by which it knew about those file systems
+ was so old, unmaintainable and buggy that while seemingly drastic,
+ this change is like removing a gangrenous toe.
+
+ Here is the list of removed functions:
+
+ ped_file_system_clobber
+ ped_file_system_open
+ ped_file_system_create
+ ped_file_system_close
+ ped_file_system_check
+ ped_file_system_copy
+ ped_file_system_resize
+ ped_file_system_get_create_constraint
+ ped_file_system_get_resize_constraint
+ ped_file_system_get_copy_constraint
+
+ This change also removes the corresponding function members
+ from "struct _PedFileSystemOps":
+
+ clobber open create close check copy resize get_create_constraint
+ get_resize_constraint get_copy_constraint
+
* Noteworthy changes in release 2.4 (2011-05-18) [stable]
