   BUG FIXES:
 
-    - A crash bug was fixed when a daemon had its "path" set to "/", did
-      not have chroot enabled, and used some anchored excludes in the
-      rsyncd.conf file.
-
-    - Fixed a case where the generator might try to tweak the write
-      permissions of a read-only directory in list-only mode.
-
-    - If --compare-dest or --link-dest uses a locally-copied file as the
-      basis for an updated version, log this better when --verbose or -i
-      is in effect.
-
-    - Fixed the accidental disabling of --backup during the --delete-after
-      processing.
-
-    - Restored the ability to use the --address option in client mode (in
-      addition to its use in daemon mode).
-
-    - Make sure that some temporary progress information from the delete
-      processing does not get left on the screen when it is followed by a
-      newline.
-
-    - When --existing skips a directory with extra verbosity, don't refer
-      to it as a "file".
+    - Changed the way --progress overwrites its prior output in order to make
+      it nearly impossible for the progress to get overwritten by an error.
 
   ENHANCEMENTS:
 
-    - Added the --only-write-batch=FILE option that may be used (instead
-      of --write-batch=FILE) to create a batch file without doing any
-      actual updating of the destination.
-
-    - Changed the outputting of "safe" filenames to use backslash-escaped
-      characters rather than '?'s.  Any non-printable character is output
-      using octal (e.g. "\n" -> "\012"), and backslash is output as "\\".
-
-    - Improved the auth-errors that are logged by the daemon to include
-      some information on why the authorization failed (wrong user,
-      password mismatch, etc.).  (The client-visible message is unchanged.)
-
-    - Improved the client's handling of an "@ERROR" from a daemon so that
-      it does not complain about an unexpectedly closed socket (since we
-      really did expect the socket to close).
-
-  INTERNAL:
+    - Added the --remote-option=OPT (-M OPT) command-line option that is useful
+      for things like sending a remote --log-file=FILE or --fake-super option.
 
-    - Rsync now calls setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "").
+    - Added the --info=FLAGS and --debug=FLAGS options to allow finer-grained
+      control over what is output.  Added an extra type of --progress output
+      using --info=progress2.
 
-  BUILD CHANGES:
+    - Added the "%C" escape to the log-output handling, which will output the
+      MD5 checksum of any transferred file, or all files if --checksum was
+      specified (when protocol 30 or above is in effect).
 
-    - Fixed a bug in the SUPPORT{,_HARD}_LINKS defines which prevented
-      rsync from being built without symlink or hard-link support.
+  DEVELOPER RELATED:
 
-    - You can use --disable-locale to turn off any use of setlocale().
+    - Added more conditional debug output.
 
-    - Configure now disables the use of mkstemp() under HP-UX (since they
-      refuse to fix its broken handling of large files).
+    - Really big numbers are now output using our own big-num routine rather
+      than casting them to a double and using a %.0f conversion.
 
-    - Configure now explicitly checks for the lseek64() function so that
-      the code can use HAVE_LSEEK64 instead of inferring lseek64()'s
-      presence based on the presence of the off64_t type.
+    - The pool_alloc library has received some minor improvements in alignment
+      handling.
