-rsync 2.5.1 (sometime in 2001?)
+rsync 2.5.2 (???)
 
-  BUG FIXES: 
-   
-    * Fix for segfault in --daemon mode configuration parser by Paul
-      Mackerras.
+  SECURITY FIXES:
 
-    * Correct string<->address parsing for both IPv4 and 6.  Thankyou
-      to YOSHIFUJI Hideaki, SUMIKAWA Munechika and Jun-ichiro "itojun"
-      Hagino.
+    * Signedness security patch from Sebastian Krahmer
+      <krahmer@suse.de> -- in some cases we were not sufficiently
+      careful about reading integers from the network.
 
-    * Various fixes for IPv6 support by Dave Dykstra.
+  BUG FIXES:
 
-    * rsync.1 typo fix by Matt Kraai.
+    * Fix possible string mangling in log files.
 
-    * Test suite typo fixes by Tom Schmidt.
+    * Fix for setting local address of outgoing sockets.
 
-    * rsync.1 grammar and clarity improvements.  Thanks to Edward
-      Welbourne.
-
-    * Correction to ./configure tests for inet_ntop.  Thankyou to Jeff
-      Garzik.
+    * Better handling of hardlinks and devices on platforms with
+      64-bit dev_t or ino_t.
 
   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    * --progress and -P now show estimated data transfer rate (in a
-        multiple of bytes/s) and estimated time to completion.  Based
-        on a patch by Rik Faith.
-   
-    * --no-detach option, required to run as a W32 service and also
-        useful when running on Unix under daemontools, AIX's SRC, or a
-        debugger.  Thanks to Max Bowsher and Jos Backus.
+    * --statistics now shows memory heap usage on platforms that
+        support mallinfo().
 
-    * Clearer error messages for some conditions.
+    * "The Ted T'so school of program optimization": make progress
+      visible and people will think it's faster.  (With --progress,
+      rsync will show you how many files it has seen as it builds the
+      file_list, giving some indication that it has not hung.)
