-rsync 2.4.7 (sometime in 2001, maybe :)
+NEWS for rsync 2.6.5 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 29 (unchanged)
+Changes since 2.6.4:
 
-  ANNOUNCEMENTS
-
-    * Martin Pool <mbp@samba.org> is now a co-maintainer.
-
-  NEW FEATURES
-
-    * Support for LSB-compliant packaging <http://www.linuxbase.org/>
-
-    * Shell wildcards are allowed in "auth users" lines.
-
-    * Merged UNC rsync+ patch to support creation of standalone patch
-      sets.  By Bert J. Dempsey and Debra Weiss, updated by Jos
-      Backus.  <http://www.ils.unc.edu/i2dsi/unc_rsync+.html>
-
-  ENHANCEMENTS
-
-    * Include/exclude cluestick: with -vv, print out whether files are
-      included or excluded and why.
-
-    * Many error messages have more friendly explanations and more
-      details.
-
-    * Manual page improvements plus scanty protocol documentation.
-
-    * When running as --daemon in the background and using a "log
-      file" rsyncd.conf directive, close the log file every time it is
-      open when going to sleep on the socket.  This allows the log
-      file to get cleaned out by another process.
-
-    * Change to using libpopt rather than getopt for processing
-      options.  This makes the code cleaner and the behaviour more
-      consistent across platforms.  popt is included and built if not
-      installed on the platform.
-
-    * More details in --version, including note about whether 64-bit
-      files, symlinks and hardlinks are supported.
-
-    * MD4 code may use less CPU cycles.
+  BUG FIXES:
 
-    * Use mkstemp on systems where it is secure.  If we use mktemp,
-      explain that we do it in a secure way.
+    - A crash bug was fixed when a daemon had its "path" set to "/", did
+      not have chroot enabled, and used some anchored excludes in the
+      config file.
 
-    * --whole-file is the default when source and target are on the
-        local machine.
+    - Fixed a case where the generator might try to tweak the write
+      permissions of a read-only directory in list-only mode.
 
-  BUG FIXES:
+    - If --compare-dest or --link-dest uses a locally-copied file as the
+      basis for an updated version, log this better when --verbose or -i
+      in in effect.
 
-    * Attempt to fix Large File Summit support on AIX.
+  ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    * Attempt to fix error handling lockup bug.
+    - Changed the outputting of "safe" filenames to use backslash-escaped
+      characters rather than '?'s.  Any non-printable character is output
+      using octal (e.g. "\n" -> "\012"), and backslash is output as "\\".
 
-    * Give a non-0 exit code if *any* of the files we have been asked
-      to transfer fail to transfer 
+  INTERNAL:
 
-    * Fix --cvs-exclude sigsegv bug.
+    - Rsync now calls setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "").
 
-    * Applied "simple nohang patch" from Wayne Davison.
+  BUILD CHANGES:
 
-    * Update to work with autoconf2.50 and 2.13.
+    - You can use --disable-locale to turn off any use of setlocale().
