I hope gparted 0.4.2 or greater is included in Jaunty. Supporting ext4 installations, but not ext4 partition management reflects a severe lack of polish.

Eric,

There was just a previous response posted to the mailing list from Colin 
Watson that this is on his list along with a feature freeze exectpion 
request as well.
The "problem" is that Mr. Watson has a lot on his plate and is getting 
there as quickly as possible.
