I am very happy to announce the initial release of GNU fdisk. This
release is numbered 0.9, marking its closeness to production stability
while still emphasizing that it hasn't been tested by a large audience
yet.
Description
===========
GNU fdisk aims to replace various UNIX operating
systems' legacy partitioning tools with libparted-based ones that mimic
the interface of those tools.
Currently implemented are alternatives to the following programs:
o util-linux ``fdisk''
o util-linux ``cfdisk''
The latter one thanks to Milko Krachounov, who worked on it as Google
Summer of Code project. The original author of the util-linux
``fdisk'' clone is Harley D. Eades.
