Are you planning on doing a new release soon?

I'm also wondering if you could give some color commentary on how
often you plan on bumping the shared version library numbers?  The
reason why I ask is because there is a Debian package which depends on
libf2fs and libf2fs-format, android-libf2fs-utils.  It appears to be
part of the Android SDK.

I was about to send the Debian maintainer of android-libf2fs-utils
package a ping asking him or her to relink against the latest so
versions --- libf2fs.so.5 and libf2fs-format.so.4.  But if the next
release is going to involve a bump of the so versions again, I'll hold
off requesting a rebuild of the package.

And if the shared libraries are going to be regularly bumped due to
incompatible ABI changes, should I recommend the andorid-f2fs-utils to
statically link instead of link against the f2fs shared libraries?

(I haven't bumped the e2fsprogs so versions in over a decade, but
that's because I had carefully designed the interfaces to allow for
backwards compatibility as we added new features to the file system.
I didn't know if that was part of your plan for f2fs-tools)

Thanks!!
