I am pleased to announce the availability of
   mdadm version 3.1.4

It is available at the usual places:
   countrycode=xx.
   http://www.${countrycode}kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
and via git at
   git://neil.brown.name/mdadm
   http://neil.brown.name/git?p=mdadm

This is a bugfix/stability release over 3.1.3.
3.1.3 had a couple of embarrasing regressions and a couple of other
issues surfaces which had easy fixes so I decided to make a 3.1.4
release after all.

Two fixes related to configs that aren't using udev:
   - Don't remove md devices which 'standard' names on --stop
   - Allow dev_open to work on read-only /dev
And fixed regressions:
   - Allow --incremental to add spares to an array
   - Accept --no-degraded as a deprecated option rather than
            throwing an error
   - Return correct success status when --incrmental assembling 
     a container which does not yet have enough devices.
   - Don't link mdadm with pthreads, only mdmon needs it.
   - Fix compiler warning due to bad use of snprintf

This release is believed to be stable and you should feel free to
upgrade to 3.1.4

It is expected that the next release will be 3.2 with a number of new
features.
