   BUG FIXES:
 
@@ -12,6 +12,44 @@ Changes since 3.0.3:
     - Added the --remote-option=OPT (-M OPT) command-line option that is useful
       for things like sending a remote --log-file=FILE or --fake-super option.
 
+    - Added the --info=FLAGS and --debug=FLAGS options to allow finer-grained
+      control over what is output.  Added an extra type of --progress output
+      using --info=progress2.
+
+    - Output numbers in 3-digit groups by default (e.g. 1,234,567).  (See the
+      --human-readable option for a way to turn it off.)
+
+    - Added a "T" (terabyte) category to the --human-readable size suffixes.
+
+    - Enhanced the --stats output: 1) to mention how many files were created
+      (protocol >= 28), 2) to mention how many files were deleted (new for
+      protocol 31), and 3) to follow the file-count, created-count, and
+      deleted-count with a break-out list of each count by type.
+
+    - Added the --usermap/--groupmap/--chown options for manipulating file
+      ownership during the copy.
+
+    - Added the "%C" escape to the log-output handling, which will output the
+      MD5 checksum of any transferred file, or all files if --checksum was
+      specified (when protocol 30 or above is in effect).
+
+  EXTRAS:
+
+    - Added an "instant-rsyncd" script to the support directory, which makes
+      it easy to configure a simple rsync daemon in the current directory.
+
+    - Added the "mapfrom" and "mapto" scripts to the support directory, which
+      makes it easier to do user/group mapping in a local transfer based on
+      passwd/group files from another machine.
+
   DEVELOPER RELATED:
 
-    - ...
+    - Added more conditional debug output.
+
+    - Really big numbers are now output using our own big-num routine rather
+      than casting them to a double and using a %.0f conversion.
+
+    - The pool_alloc library has received some minor improvements in alignment
+      handling.
+
+    - Added init_stat_x() function to avoid duplication of acl/xattr init code.
