Are there any plans in the near future to enable growing RAID-6 arrays by 
adding more disks into them?

I have a 15x500GB - drive unit and I need to add another 15 drives into 
it... Hindsight is telling me that maybe I should have put LVM on top of 
the RAID-6, however, the usable 6TB it yields should have been enough for 
anyone...

Cheers,

Gordon
