   BUG FIXES:
 
-    - The outputting of hard-linked files when verbosity was > 1 was not right:
-      without -i it would output the name of each hard-linked file as thought
-      it had been changed (it now outputs a "is hard linked" message for the
-      file); with -i it would could output all trailing dots for an unchanged
-      hard-link (it now changes those dots to spaces, as is done for other
-      unchanged files).
-
-    - When backing up a changed symlink or device, get rid of any old backup
-      item so that we don't get an already-exists error.
+    - 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.
 
   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    - Made the "max verbosity" setting in the rsyncd.conf file settable on a
-      per-module basis (which now matches the documentation).
+    - 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.
 
-  BUILD CHANGES:
+    - 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. 
 
-    - Made configure define NOBODY_USER (currently hard-wired to "nobody") and
-      NOBODY_GROUP (set to either "nobody" or "nogroup" depending on what we
-      find in the /etc/group file).
+  INTERNAL:
 
-    - Added a test to the test suite, itemized.test, that tests the output of
-      -i (log-format w/%i) and some double-verbose messages.
+    - 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.
