-rsync changes since last release
-
-  ENHANCEMENTS:
-
-    * The --delete-after option now implies --delete.  (Wayne Davison)
-
-    * The --suffix option can now be used with --backup-dir.  (Michael
-      Zimmerman)
-
-    * Combining "::" syntax with the -rsh/-e option now uses the
-      specified remote-shell as a transport to talk to a (newly-spawned)
-      server-daemon.  This allows someone to use daemon features, such
-      as modules, over a secure protocol, such as ssh.  (JD Paul)
-
-    * The rsync:// syntax for daemon connections is now accepted in the
-      destination field.
-
-    * If the file name given to --include-from or --exclude-from is "-",
-      rsync will read from standard input.  (J.W. Schultz)
-
-    * New option --link-dest which is like --compare-dest except that
-      unchanged files are hard-linked in to the destination directory.
-      (J.W. Schultz)
-
-    * Don't report an error if an excluded file disappears during an
-      rsync run.  (Eugene Chupriyanov and Bo Kersey)
-
-    * Added .svn to --cvs-exclude list to support subversion.  (Jon
-      Middleton)
-
-    * Properly support IPv6 addresses in the rsyncd.conf "hosts allow"
-      and "hosts deny" fields.  (Hideaki Yoshifuji)
-
-    * Changed exclude file handling to permit DOS or MAC style line
-      terminations.  (J.W. Schultz)
-
-    * Ignore errors from chmod when -p/-a/--preserve-perms is not set.
-      (Dave Dykstra)
+NEWS for rsync 2.6.6 (UNRELEASED)
+Protocol: 29 (unchanged)
+Changes since 2.6.5:
 
   BUG FIXES:
-  
-    * Fix "forward name lookup failed" errors on AIX 4.3.3.  (John
-      L. Allen, Martin Pool)
 
-    * Generate each file's rolling-checksum data as we send it, not
-      in a separate (memory-eating) pass before hand.  This prevents
-      timeout errors on really large files. (Stefan Nehlsen)
+    - 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).
 
-    * Fix compilation on Tru64.  (Albert Chin, Zoong Pham)
-
-    * Better handling of some client-server errors.  (Martin Pool)
-
-    * Fixed a crash that would occur when sending a list of files that
-      contains a duplicate name (if it sorts to the end of the file
-      list) and using --delete.  (Wayne Davison)
-
-    * Fixed the file-name duplicate-removal code when dealing with multiple
-      dups in a row. (Wayne Davison)
-
-    * Fixed a bug that caused rsync to lose the exit status of its child
-      processes and sometimes return an exit code of 0 instead of showing
-      an error.  (David R. Staples, Dave Dykstra)
-
-    * Fixed bug in --copy-unsafe-links that caused it to be completely
-      broken.  (Dave Dykstra)
-
-    * Prevent infinite recursion in cleanup code under certain circumstances.
-      (Sviatoslav Sviridov and Marc Espie)
-
-    * Fixed a bug that prevented rsync from creating intervening directories
-      when --relative-paths/-R is set.  (Craig Barratt)
-
-    * Prevent "Connection reset by peer" messages from Cygwin. (Randy O'Meara)
-
-  INTERNAL:
-
-    * Many code cleanups and improved internal documentation.  (Martin 
-      Pool, Nelson Beebe)
-
-    * Portability fixes. (Dave Dykstra and Wayne Davison)
+  ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    * More test cases.  (Martin Pool)
+    - Made the "max verbosity" setting in the rsyncd.conf file settable on a
+      per-module basis (which now matches the documentation).
 
-    * Some test-case fixes.  (Brian Poole, Wayne Davison)
+  BUILD CHANGES:
 
-    * Updated included popt to the latest vendor drop, version 1.6.4.
-      (Jos Backus)
+    - 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).
 
-    * Updated config.guess and config.sub to latest versions; this
-      means rsync should build on more platforms.  (Paul Green)
+    - Added a test to the test suite, itemized.test, that tests the output of
+      -i (log-format w/%i) and some double-verbose messages.
