       never indicates that the socket is writable for it to be notified about
       the EOF.  (This can happen when using stunnel).
 
+    - Fixed a problem with the file-reading code where a failed read (such as
+      that caused by a bad sector) would make rsync think that the file's
+      read-position was left after the failed read's data.
+
+    - 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 or by
+      init).
+
+    - If rsync cannot honor the --delete option, we output an error and exit
+      instead of silently ignoring the option.
+
   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    - The support/rsyncstats script has an improved line-parsing regex that is
-      easier to read and also allows it to parse syslog-generated lines.
+    - 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 rsyncstats script in "support" has an improved line-parsing regex
+      that is easier to read and also makes it to parse syslog-generated lines.
+
+    - A new script in "support": file-attr-restore, can be used to restore the
+      attributes of a file-set (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).
