Hi,

I just released hal 0.4.1 yesterday! Changes from 0.4.0 to 0.4.1

- Make $(binpath)/hal-device-manager a real executable instead of a
  symlink to better work with strict SELinux (Colin Walters)
- Change default storage policy such that SCSI optical drives are being 
  added to e.g. /etc/fstab
- Refine PCMCIA socket location to better work with strict SELinux
  (from Dan Walsh)
- Make configure.in require libcap development headers (Tim Müller)
- Change default storage policy to not add fixed non-hotpluggable disks
  to e.g. /etc/fstab (as ATARAID detection is not yet complete)
- Support PCMCIA 16-bit network devices (Dan Williams)
- Change default storage policy to use 'auto' for filesystem instead of
  'udf,iso9660'
- Probe ext3 filesystems before NTFS filesystems
- Highpoint ATARAID detection (Kay Sievers)
- Fixup detection of Orinico 802.11 devices (Dan Williams)
- Portuguese translations (Pedro Morais)
- Hungarian translations (Laszlo Dvornik)
- Russian translations (Leonid Kanter)
- Clarify fstab-sync man page
- Fix crash in fstab-sync when no options are given
- Change default storage policy to allow legacy floppy disks
- Fixup order of mount options in libhal-storage as mount depend on that
- Handle missing hotplug events
- Change default storage policy to not never use UUID
- Don't use O_NONBLOCK in volume_id when reading data block devices
- fix fstab-sync clean

CVS have been branched. Bugfixes and translation updates goes on the
hal-0_4-stable-branch while new development occurs on HEAD.

Cheers,
David
