+Protocol: 30 (changed)
+Changes since 2.6.9:
 
   BUG FIXES:
 
-    - 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.
+    - Fixed the output of -ii when combined with one of the --*-dest options:
+      it now itemizes all the items, not just the changed ones.
 
-    - 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.
+    - Made the output of all file types consistent when using a --*-dest
+      option.  Prior versions used to output too many creation events for
+      matching items.
 
-  ENHANCEMENTS:
+    - The code that waits for a child pid now handles being interrupted by
+      a signal.  This fixes a problem with the pre-xfer exec function not
+      being able to get the exit status from the script.
+
+    - A negated filter rule now sends the negation option when sending the
+      filter rules.
 
-    - Added the --append option that makes rsync append data onto files
-      that are longer on the source than the destination (this includes new
-      files).
+  ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    - If lutimes() and/or lchmod() are around, use them to allow the
-      preservation of attributes on symlinks.
+    - Added the --delete-delay option, which is a more efficient way to
+      delete files at the end of the transfer without needing a separate
+      delete pass.
 
-    - 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. 
+    - You may specify --max-delete=0 to a 3.0.0 client as long as the
+      receiving side is at least version 3.0.0.  This means that you
+      can pull from an older rsync with this option, but pushing to an
+      older rsync will generate an error.  *Be sure to never specify a 0
+      value to an older rsync client, or it will be silently ignored.*
 
   INTERNAL:
 
-    - Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where
-      MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin).
+    - Added some isType() functions that make dealing with signed characters
+      easier without forcing variables via casts.
+
+    - Upgraded the included popt version to 1.10.2 and improved its use of
+      string-handling functions.
+
+    - Added missing prototypes for compatibility functions from the lib dir.
+
+    - Configure determines if iconv() has a const arg, allowing us to avoid a
+      compiler warning.
+
+    - Made the sending of some numbers more efficient for protocol 30.
+
+    - Improved the use of "const" on pointers.
+
+  DEVELOPER RELATED:
 
-    - If io_printf() tries to format more data than fits in the buffer, exit
-      with an error instead of transmitting a truncated buffer.
