This release introduces exfat-utils -- a set of utilities for exFAT file
system: dumpexfat, exfatfsck, mkexfatfs, exfatlabel.

Changes in fuse-exfat between 0.9.3 and 0.9.4:
* Fixed "Invalid argument" error while mounting a volume from a disk
with sector size greater than 512 bytes.
* Wait for all data to be flushed to disk on unmount.
* Kernel cache is no longer flushed on open. This can slightly improve
read performance by avoiding extra read requests from kernel to user-space.
* Allow to unmount volumes as user (fusermount -u) if they were mounted
from the very same user [Tino Lange].
* Errors and warnings are now duplicated to syslog.

Packages for Fedora 14 are available right now.
Packages for Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10 will be available soon in the PPA
<https://launchpad.net/~relan/+archive/exfat>.
