 Version 2.02.54 -
 =====================================
+  Remember to clear 'global lock held during cache refresh' state after use.
   Use udev flags support in LVM.
   Delay announcing mirror monitoring to syslog until initialisation succeeded.
   Handle metadata with unknown segment types more gracefully.
