-** Add checksum caching info and file format to the docs.
+* Added Dutch translation from Lieven Bridts, with tweaks from
+  Guus Houtzager.
+
+* Added PC-specific config file read in CGI/Archive.pm.  Patch
+  from Pete Wenzel.
+
+* Added non-zero exit code to BackupPC_zcat when uncompress fails.
+  Patch from Pete Wenzel.
+
+* Cosmetic changes to PC Summary and Log file language strings from
+  Pete Wenzel.
+
+* BackupPC::Lib tries to be more careful when renaming the backups
+  file to backups.old.  There have been reports of backups being
+  empty, perhaps when the BackupPC data file system fills up.
+  Now backups is not renamed to backups.old if backups is empty.
+
+* BackupPC now closes stderr and stdout before renaming and
+  re-opening the log file.
+
+* Pre/post backup/restore/archive commands now correctly set
+  "type" to either incr/full/restore/archive, and now cmdType
+  is the type of Pre/post backup/restore/archive command.
+
+* BackupPC_archive correctly terminates archive processes on
+  alarm or cancel.
+
+* Updates to BackupPC_stnd.css with absolute font sizes instead
+  of relative.
+
+* BackupPC_dump now makes sure that the $Conf{FullAgeMax} check
+  also ensures the full backup is older than the maximum age
+  expected from $Conf{FullPeriod}.

+
+* Fixed bug in rsync checksum caching code in BackupPC::Xfer::RsyncDigest.
+
+* BackupPC_zipCreate now ensures the earliest mtime is 1/1/1980,
+  since zip file formats don't support earlier dates.  Reported
+  by Dan Niles.
+
+* CGI restore via zip and tar now makes sure stderr is ignored
+  when BackupPC_tarCreate and BackupPC_zipCreate are run.
+  Previously any stderr output would get mixed in the archive,
+  corrupting it.  Reported by Dan Niles.

+* $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} and $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} now apply
+  to every share, rather than just the first, in the case where
+  they are arrays and there are multiple shares.  Suggested
+  by Andy Evans.

 
 * On the phase 2 retry pass with rsync, verify the cached checksums
   if checksum caching is turned on.  This will catch the case of
