-rsync 2.5.3 (not released yet)
+NEWS for rsync 2.6.7 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 29 (unchanged)
+Changes since 2.6.6:
+
+  BUG FIXES:
+
+    - If the user specifies a remote-host for both the source and destination,
+      we now output a syntax error rather than trying to open the destination
+      hostspec as a filename.
+
+    - When --inplace creates a new destination file, rsync now creates it with
+      permissions 0600 instead of 0000 -- this makes restarting possible when
+      the transfer gets interrupted in the middle of sending a new file.
 
   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    * Command to initiate connections is only shown with -vv, rather
-      than -v as in 2.5.2.  Output from plain -v is more similar to
-      what was historically used so as not to break scripts that try
-      to parse the output.
+    - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files
+      that are longer on the source than the destination (this includes new
+      files).
+
+    - If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the
+      preservation of attributes on symlinks.
+
+    - Added two config items to the rsyncd.conf parsing:  "pre-xfer exec"
+      and "post-xfer exec".  These allow a command to be specified on a
+      per-module basis that will be run before and/or after a daemon-mode
+      transfer. 
+
+  INTERNAL:
 
-    * Added --no-whole-file and --no-blocking-io options
+    - Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where
+      MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin).
 
+    - If io_printf() tries to format more data than fits in the buffer, exit
+      with an error instead of transmitting a truncated buffer.
