<p>HAST development is progressing nicely. Mikolaj Golub who contributes
to HAST is now a &os; src committer. Some changes worth noting since
the last report:</p>
<ul>
<li>Compression of the data being sent over the network. This can
speed up especially synchronization process.</li>
<li>Optional checksuming for the data being send over the
network.</li>
<li>Capsicum sandboxing for secondary node and hastctl.</li>
<li>Chroot+setuid+setgid sandboxing for primary node.</li>
<li>Allow administrators to specify source IP address for
connections.</li>
<li>When changing role wait for a while for the other node to
switch from primary to secondary to avoid split-brain.</li>
<li>Many bug fixes.</li>

<p>A new &os; Handbook section covering the Highly Available
STorage, or HAST developed by Pawel Jakub Dawidek has been
recently added. In this section, you will learn what HAST is,
