 CephFS distributed file system
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
-* cephfs-mirror...
+* The CephFS adds modifies on-RADOS metadata such that the new format is no
+  longer backwards compatible. It is not possible to downgrade a file system from
+  Pacific (or later) to an older release.
+
+* Multiple file systems in a single Ceph cluster is now stable. New Ceph clusters
+  enable support for multiple file systems by default. Existing clusters
+  must still set the "enable_multiple" flag on the fs. Please see the CephFS
+  documentation for more information.
+
+* A new ``mds_autoscaler`` plugin is available for automatically deploying
+  MDS daemons in response to changes to the ``max_mds`` configuration. Expect
+  further enhancements in the future to simplify MDS scaling.
+
+* cephfs-top is a new utility for looking at performance metrics from CephFS
+  clients. It is development preview quality and will have bugs. See the CephFS
+  documentation for more information.
+
+* A new ``snap_schedule`` module provides a command toolset for scheduling
+  snapshots on a CephFS file system.
+
+* First class NFS gateway support in Ceph is here! It's now possible to create
+  scale-out ("active-active") NFS gateway clusters that export CephFS using
+  a few commands. The gateways are deployed via cephadm (or Rook, in the future).
+
+* Multiple active MDS file system scrub is now stable. It is no longer necessary
+  to set ``max_mds`` to 1 and wait for non-zero ranks to stop. Scrub commands
+  can only be sent to rank 0: ``ceph tell mds.<fs_name>:0 scrub start /path ...``.
+
+* Ephemeral pinning -- policy based subtree pinning -- is considered stable.
+  ``mds_export_ephemeral_random`` and ``mds_export_ephemeral_distributed`` now
+  default to true.
+
+* A new cephfs-mirror daemon is available for mirror CephFS file systems to
+  remote Ceph cluster. See the CephFS documentation for details.
