Hi,

I figured something along these lines could be mentioned in the release notes:

"As of the Fedora 15 release, GFS2 supports the standard Linux quota facilities. In order to use this you will need to install the quota RPM. This is the preferred way to administer quotas on GFS2 and should be used for all new deployments of GFS2 using quotas. GFS2 used to require the gfs2_quota command to manage quotas but its use has been deprecated and it will be removed from future Fedora releases. For more information on how to use the generic quota tools with gfs2, please refer to the 'GFS2 Quota Management' section in the latest RHEL6 'Global File System 2' manual located here: http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/";

Thanks!
