Hi everyone,

I've put up a beta2 release here:

http://ftp.gluster.com/pub/freeipmi/qa-release/freeipmi-0.8.0.beta2.tar.gz

Changes from beta 1:

I've modified the ipmi-sel output so there are only 2 levels of
verbosity (former level 1 verbosity is now default).

Fixed some output corner cases.

Added --tail to ipmi-sel.

Fixed a shared sensors corner case.

Al
