I am pleased to announce the release of GNU ddrescue 1.7.

GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool.

The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ddrescue/ddrescue.html.

The sources can be dowloaded from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/ddrescue/ or
from your favorite GNU mirror.

The md5sum is:
e4c226892f2f2e01c58197c9435cd611  ddrescue-1.7.tar.bz2

This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by
appending ".sig" to the URL.

Changes in version 1.7:

* This version skips very fast over damaged areas.

* This version maintains the logfile minimized at all times, improving efficiency.

* The error count now shows the number of error areas found, irrespective of their sizes.

* When splitting, this version jumps to the next non-split area after two consecutive errors have been encountered in the current one.

* Target "check" has been added to Makefile.

* The new option "--retrim" has been added.


Please send bug reports and suggestions to [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU ddrescue author and maintainer.
