-    - Added --files-from, --no-relative, --no-implied-dirs, and --from0.
+    * Added --files-from, --no-relative, --no-implied-dirs, and --from0.

       Note that --from0 affects the line-ending character for all the
       --*-from options. (Wayne Davison)

+    * Length of csum2 is now per-file starting with protocol verison
+      27. (J.W. Schultz)
+
+    * Per-file dynamic block size is now sqrt(file length).
+      The per-file checksum size is determined according
+      to an algorythm provided by Donovan Baarda which
+      reduces the probability of rsync algorithm
+      corrupting data and falling back using the whole md4
+      checksums. (J.W. Schultz, Donovan Baarda)

-    - Fixed a crash bug when interacting with older rsync versions and
+    * for protocol version >= 27, mdfour_tail() is called when the
+      block size (including checksum_seed) is a multiple of 64.
+      Previously it was not called, giving the wrong MD4 checksum.
+      (Craig Barratt)
+  
+    * for protocol version >= 27, a 64 bit bit counter is used in
+      mdfour.c as required by the RFC.  Previously only a 32 bit bit
+      counter was used, causing incorrect MD4 file checksums for
+      file sizes >= 512MB - 4.  (Craig Barratt)
