 1. Quick usage instructions:
 ===========================
 
-  - Grab updated e2fsprogs from
-    ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/e2fsprogs-interim/
-    This is a patchset on top of e2fsprogs-1.39, which can be found at
+  - Compile and install the latest version of e2fsprogs (as of this
+    writing version 1.41) from:
+
+    http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=2406
+	
+	or
+
     ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/e2fsprogs/
 
-  - It's still mke2fs -j /dev/hda1
+	or grab the latest git repository from:
+
+    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/ext2/e2fsprogs.git
+
+  - Create a new filesystem using the ext4dev filesystem type:
+
+    	# mke2fs -t ext4dev /dev/hda1
+
+    Or configure an existing ext3 filesystem to support extents and set
+    the test_fs flag to indicate that it's ok for an in-development
+    filesystem to touch this filesystem:
 
-  - mount /dev/hda1 /wherever -t ext4dev
+	# tune2fs -O extents -E test_fs /dev/hda1
 
-  - To enable extents,
+    If the filesystem was created with 128 byte inodes, it can be
+    converted to use 256 byte for greater efficiency via:
 
-	mount /dev/hda1 /wherever -t ext4dev -o extents
+        # tune2fs -I 256 /dev/hda1
 
-  - The filesystem is compatible with the ext3 driver until you add a file
-    which has extents (ie: `mount -o extents', then create a file).
+    (Note: we currently do not have tools to convert an ext4dev
+    filesystem back to ext3; so please do not do try this on production
+    filesystems.)
 
-    NOTE: The "extents" mount flag is temporary.  It will soon go away and
-    extents will be enabled by the "-o extents" flag to mke2fs or tune2fs
+  - Mounting:
+
+	# mount -t ext4dev /dev/hda1 /wherever
 
   - When comparing performance with other filesystems, remember that
-    ext3/4 by default offers higher data integrity guarantees than most.  So
-    when comparing with a metadata-only journalling filesystem, use `mount -o
-    data=writeback'.  And you might as well use `mount -o nobh' too along
-    with it.  Making the journal larger than the mke2fs default often helps
-    performance with metadata-intensive workloads.

 2. Features
 ===========
 
 2.1 Currently available
 
-* ability to use filesystems > 16TB
+* ability to use filesystems > 16TB (e2fsprogs support not available yet)
 * extent format reduces metadata overhead (RAM, IO for access, transactions)
 * extent format more robust in face of on-disk corruption due to magics,
 * internal redunancy in tree
-
-2.1 Previously available, soon to be enabled by default by "mkefs.ext4":
-
-* dir_index and resize inode will be on by default
-* large inodes will be used by default for fast EAs, nsec timestamps, etc
+* improved file allocation (multi-block alloc)
+* fix 32000 subdirectory limit
+* nsec timestamps for mtime, atime, ctime, create time
+* inode version field on disk (NFSv4, Lustre)
+* reduced e2fsck time via uninit_bg feature
+* journal checksumming for robustness, performance
+* persistent file preallocation (e.g for streaming media, databases)
+* ability to pack bitmaps and inode tables into larger virtual groups via the
+  flex_bg feature
+* large file support
+* Inode allocation using large virtual block groups via flex_bg
+* delayed allocation
+* large block (up to pagesize) support
+* efficent new ordered mode in JBD2 and ext4(avoid using buffer head to force
+  the ordering)
 
 2.2 Candidate features for future inclusion
 
-There are several under discussion, whether they all make it in is
-partly a function of how much time everyone has to work on them:
+* Online defrag (patches available but not well tested)
+* reduced mke2fs time via lazy itable initialization in conjuction with
+  the uninit_bg feature (capability to do this is available in e2fsprogs
+  but a kernel thread to do lazy zeroing of unused inode table blocks
+  after filesystem is first mounted is required for safety)
 
-* improved file allocation (multi-block alloc, delayed alloc; basically done)
-* fix 32000 subdirectory limit (patch exists, needs some e2fsck work)
-* nsec timestamps for mtime, atime, ctime, create time (patch exists,
-  needs some e2fsck work)
-* inode version field on disk (NFSv4, Lustre; prototype exists)
-* reduced mke2fs/e2fsck time via uninitialized groups (prototype exists)
-* journal checksumming for robustness, performance (prototype exists)
-* persistent file preallocation (e.g for streaming media, databases)
+There are several others under discussion, whether they all make it in is
+partly a function of how much time everyone has to work on them. Features like
+metadata checksumming have been discussed and planned for a bit but no patches
+exist yet so I'm not sure they're in the near-term roadmap.
 
-Features like metadata checksumming have been discussed and planned for
-a bit but no patches exist yet so I'm not sure they're in the near-term
-roadmap.
+The big performance win will come with mballoc, delalloc and flex_bg
+grouping of bitmaps and inode tables.  Some test results available here:
 
-The big performance win will come with mballoc and delalloc.  CFS has
-been using mballoc for a few years already with Lustre, and IBM + Bull
-did a lot of benchmarking on it.  The reason it isn't in the first set of
-patches is partly a manageability issue, and partly because it doesn't
-directly affect the on-disk format (outside of much better allocation)
-so it isn't critical to get into the first round of changes.  I believe
-Alex is working on a new set of patches right now.
