Dear WinDRBD community, We just released WinDRBD 1.2.8. The major change in this version is that the Linux crypto framework was imported into WinDRBD. This means that (currently) crc32c, sha1 and hmac(sha1) are available for crypto algorithms. Also, more crypto algorithms can be added easily, since the Linux kernel's crypto code is now also part of the WinDRBD source code. This eliminates the need for ugly patches in LINSTOR, which is why we did the release now. In addition an endless loop when updating WinDRBD was fixed. Once again please join us at the LINBIT community meeting on March 12 where we have exciting news about the future of WinDRBD to share.
