+    <h3><a name="linux_cifs_client_1.34">Improved Linux CIFS Client 1.34 Released</a></h3> 
+        
+    <div class="article">
+      <p>The 1.34 version of the CIFS client has been released. This version i
+         includes many improvements:</p>
+
+      <ul>
+        <li>NT 4 servers are now better supported.</li>
+        <li>A umount.cifs user mount helper has been added.</li>
+        <li>The cifs client can now optionally handle some of the reserved 
+            characters (such as colon) in filenames.</li>
+        <li>A key client file caching bug was fixed.</li>
+        <li>Stability under stress is much improved.</li>
+        <li>Memory allocations by the client have been significantly reduced in
+            the receive path, greatly improving (in some cases ten fold) 
+            performance under stress scenarios such as dbench.</li>
+      </ul>
+
+      <p>See the changelog fs/cifs/CHANGES and fs/cifs/README for additional 
+      details.</p>
+
+      <p>Download instructions, including replacement cifs files for a few 
+      common kernels, can be found at the 
+      <a href="http://linux-cifs.samba.org/">project page</a>.</p>
+
+      <p>This version has been submitted for inclusion in future Linux 
+      mainline kernels. </p>
