Comment 5 for bug 567928

Actually I agree the help could be improved, i.e. it could first clearly mention that it is only showing "major modes", or just append the help-options page. I am just a user like you, and the thing is mdadm could be considered unmaintained in ubuntu, just check the bugs and the version. So I'd suggest you contact the linux-raid list with text patches if you'd want to see changes. I really dislike that "invalid" state, too. But there seem to be nothing like "close" for housekeeping. We can add this to launchpad project "mdadm" but that is currently only a place to gather upstream bugs withing launchpad without really getting the info upstream (devs don's seem to use any bug tracker).
