+      <p>ZFSguru is a multifunctional server appliance with a strong
+	emphasis on storage. ZFSguru began as simple web-interface
+	frontend to ZFS, but has since grown into a &os; derivative
+	with its own infrastructure.  The scope of the project has
+	also grown with the inclusion of add-on packages that add
+	functionality beyond the traditional NAS functionality found
+	in similar product like FreeNAS and NAS4Free.  ZFSguru aims to
+	be a true multifunctional server appliance that is extremely
+	easy to set up and can unite both novice and more experienced
+	users in a single user interface. The modular nature of the
+	project combats the danger of bloat, whilst still allowing
+	extended functionality to be easily deployed.</p>
+
+      <p>The ZFSguru project is nearing the release of version 0.3, a
+	major milestone for the project.  In this new version, major
+	work has been done on fundamentals.  An overview:</p>
+
+      <ul>
+	<li>New build infrastructure allows for frequent releases of
+	  system images and services in a semi-automated way.</li>
+
+	<li>New GuruDB database allows for a growing number of system
+	  images and servers, and provides good caching to accelerate
+	  pages.</li>
+
+	<li>Redesigned installation procedure, and addition of new
+	  distributions Root-on-RAM and Root-on-Media aside from the
+	  already supported Root-on-ZFS.</li>
+
+	<li>Both LiveCD and USB images will be provided.  The USB
+	  image also has UEFI boot support working alongside the
+	  regular MBR boot support so both are available.</li>
+
+	<li>Many overhauled libraries and additions to the web
+	  interface.</li>
+
+	<li>Many improvements to services, such as the new Gnome 3
+	  graphical environment.</li>
+      </ul>
+
+      <p>ZFSguru version 0.3 will be released on the first of
+	August.</p>
