---+++ Planetlab 3.1 RC1
   Date: 19 May 2005
   Description: First release candidate in the 3.1 series. Add slice attributes support in Node Manager and update kernel to latest Fedora Core 2 update.
   * ipod-2.0-6.planetlab
      * Support both UDP and ICMP "pings of death"
   * kernel-2.6.10-1.771_FC2.1.1.planetlab
      * Upgrade to latest Fedora Core 2 update (1.771-FC2)
      * Upgrade to VServer patch 1.9.3.17
      * Upgrade to CKRM CPU controller version 9 rc1
      * Enable USB HCD and HID support
      * Enable additional SATA support
   * netflow-3.1-9.planetlab
      * check rc of "service mysql status" instead of presence of /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
      * try to repair corrupt tables before trying to compress them
      * fix bash syntax error if mysqld is not running
   * pl_mom-1.0-7.planetlab
      * Support per-slice daily bandwidth caps
   * pl_sshd-1.0-8.planetlab
      * replace automount script for ssh keys with a Python version
      * start pl_sshd after sshd so that it works the first time after an install (when it starts for the first time, sshd generates host keys)
   * resman-0.02-8.planetlab
      * Added knobs for minrate and maxrate
      * Changed init function to use tc's "change" function first, before trying to create (add) a new htb rule into the system.  This way 'bwlimit init' can be invoked at any time to change the bwcap on the system.
      * properly setting io shares values
      * Change CKRM mem controller config parameters (fixes the problem with dd)
      * Do not set memory guarantees per slice
      * increase numtask limit from 256 to 1024
      * CKRM E17 got rid of the 'target' special file.  The 'members' special file is now used in write mode in place of the 'target' file.  Check for the existence of the 'target' for backwards compatibility, otherwise use the 'members'.
   * sidewinder-0.8-1.planetlab
      * Note to Main.SteveMuir: please update with summary of changes between last release and this one
   * util-vserver-0.30-10.planetlab
      * Use getpwnam_r to work around problems with getpwnam on FC3 and Gentoo boxes. Fix suggested by Gao Chan from Tsinghua.
   * vnet-0.3-2.planetlab
      * fix /proc/scout/ports/summary handler to use seq_file
      * Remove support for 2.4 and unpatched (non-vserver) kernels
      * need netfilter_ipv4.h for IP_NF defs
      * 2.6.10 reverted back to old dst_output() prototype
