Thanks for the summary. I posted (I think) short announcements to the list
about them, but I _really_ ought to put them into a ChangeLog in the source,
which is probably a very good idea.

Right, this I discussed Oliver before modifying it. The dead code removal is
not that urgent, I will have to check it some time though.

Cool, this would be helpful.

This was because back then, not everyone wanted to build with STONITH; there
was also VACM etc around, and the FailSafe RPMs provided by SGI were build
without STONITH. These days, I guess everyone builds with STONITH, so it ought
to be folded back in.

Hrm, I will have to check this; this probably ought to go in.
