       wildcards fails to match an absolute source arg, but only when --relative
       is in effect.
 
+    - Improved the I/O code for the generator to fix a potential hang when the
+      receiver gets an EOF on the socket but the generator's select() call
+      never indicates that the socket is writable for it to be notified about
+      the EOF.  (This can happen when using stunnel).
+
+    - Fixed a logging bug where the "log file" directive was not being honored
+      in a single-use daemon (one spawned by a remote-shell connection).
+
+    - If rsync cannot honor the --delete option, we output an error and exit
+      instead of silently ignoring the option.
+
   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
+    - In daemon mode, if rsync fails to bind to the requested port, the
+      error(s) returned by socket() and/or bind() are now logged.
+
+    - When we output a fatal error, we now output the version of rsync in the
+      message.
+
     - The support/rsyncstats script has an improved line-parsing regex that is
       easier to read and also allows it to parse syslog-generated lines.
 
+    - A new script, support/file-attr-restore, can be used to restore the
+      attributes of a fileset (the permissions, ownership, and group info)
+      taken from the cached output of a "find ARG... -ls" command.
+
   DEVELOPER RELATED:
 
+    - The acls.diff patch has been improved quite a bit, with more to come.
+
     - A new patch was added: log-file.diff.  This contains an early version of
       a future option, --log-file=FILE, that will allow any rsync to log its
-      actions to a file (which is only supported by a daemon at present).
+      actions to a file (something that only a daemon supports at present).
