<H3><A NAME="stop"></A>EDK II FAT-Driver News</H3>
<P>The EDK II FAT-Driver development team is pleased to announce a
new <B>&quot;Enhanced&quot;</B> FAT-Driver. This project will now be
used to develop and maintain both drivers. From this point on, the
original FAT-Driver will be referred to as <B>FAT-Driver</B> while
the new driver will go by the <B>Enhanced-FAT-Driver</B> name. Both
drivers will be using the same Project Tracer and each have their own
<B>module</B> name when creating/modifying TASKs or ENHANCEMENTs. The
enhanced-fat-driver is also published under the same license as the
fat-driver2. To view more specific information about the
enhanced-fat-driver, go to the <A HREF="#Enhanced_Fat_Driver">Enhanced-FAT-Driver</A>
section.

When making your decision, remember that the Enhanced FAT-Driver is backward compatible with the original FAT-Driver.
It also has a sector allocation mechanism that can make it easier to recover deleted files.
</p> -->What
does this mean to you?</H4>
<P>The source code will be housed in the same repository so there is
no need to checkout multiple projects to work on these drivers. The
Project Tracker configuration is setup to allow for concurrent
DEFECT, ENHANCEMENT and TASK management for both projects. The only
real concern for you is to figure out which driver to use when.
