   BUG FIXES:
 
-    - Made hard-links work with symlinks and devices again.
-
-    - If a device-file/special-file changes permissions, rsync now updates the
-      permissions without recreating the file.
-
-    - 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.
-
-    - Reject the combination of --inplace and --sparse since the sparse-output
-      algorithm doesn't work when overwriting existing data.
-
-    - Fixed the directory name in the error that is output when pop_dir()
-      fails.
-
-    - Really fixed the parsing of a "!" entry in .cvsignore files this time.
-
-    - If the generator gets a stat() error on a file, output it (this used to
-      require at least -vv for the error to be seen).
-
-    - If waitpid() fails or the child rsync didn't exit cleanly, we now handle
-      the exit status properly and generate a better error.

   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files
-      that are longer on the source than the destination (this includes new
-      files).
-
-    - Added the --min-size=SIZE option to exclude small files from the
-      transfer.
-
-    - Added the --compress-level option to allow you to set how aggressive
-      rsync's compression should be (the option implies --compress).
-
-    - Enhanced the parsing of the SIZE value for --min-size and --max-size.
-
-    - 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. 
-
-    - When using the --relative option, you can now insert a dot dir in
-      the source path to indicate where the replication of the source dirs
-      should start.  For example, if you specify a source path of
-      rsync://host/module/foo/bar/./baz/dir with -R, rsync would only
-      replicate the "baz/dir" part of the source path (note: a trailing
-      dot dir is unaffected unless it also has a trailing slash).
-
-    - Added some new --no-FOO options that make it easier to override
-      unwanted implied or default options.  For example, "-a --no-o" (aka
-      "--archive --no-owner") can be used to turn off the preservation of
-      file ownership that is implied by -a.
-
-    - Allow the --temp-dir option to be specified when starting a daemon,
-      which sets the default temporary directory for incoming files.
-
-    - If --delete is combined with --dirs without --recursive, rsync will
-      now delete in any directory whose content is being synchronized.
-
-    - The file-count stats that are output by --progress were improved to
-      better indicate what the numbers mean.  For instance, the output:
-      "(xfer#5, to-check=8383/9999)" indicates that this was transferred
-      file #5, and we still need to check 8383 files out of 9999 total.
-
-    - Some minor documentation improvements.
-
-    - Updated some diffs in the patches dir.
-
-  INTERNAL:
-
-    - 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.
-
-    - If a va_copy macro is defined, lib/snprintf.c will use it when defining
-      the VA_COPY macro.
-
-    - Reduced the amount of stack memory needed for each level of directory
-      recursion by nearly MAXPATHLEN bytes.
+    - ...
 
   DEVELOPER RELATED:
 
-    - Several diffs in the patches dir now use the proper --enable-FOO
-      configure option instead of --with-FOO to turn on the inclusion of
-      the newly patched feature.
-
+    - Updated config.guess and config.sub to their 2006-02-23 version.
