+      <p>The new &os; in-kernel iSCSI stack was functionally complete in
+	&os; 10.0-RELEASE, but ongoing enhancements and bug fixes are
+	being committed to &os; <tt>head</tt>, with a plan to merge them
+	back to <tt>stable/10</tt> in time for &os; 10.1-RELEASE.</p>
+
+      <p>Many issues have been resolved, including very slow operation
+	with data digests enabled, bugs in persistent reservations which
+	impacted Hyper-V Failover Cluster, and a negotiation problem
+	affecting Dell Equallogic users.</p>
+
+      <p>There have also been numerous enhancements, such as support for
+	redirections, which are neccessary for some High Availability
+	setups, and the ability to modify session parameters in the
+	iscsictl utility.  Previously it was necessary to remove the
+	session and add it again.</p>
