-* Added server message for queuing a single host based on patch
-  submitted by Joe Digilio.
+* Modified bin/BackupPC_dump to fix the case of a single partial
+  backup followed by a successful incremental resulting in a full
+  backup of level 1, rather than level 0.  Reported by Jeff
+  Kosowsky.
+
+* Fixed BackupPC::PoolWrite to always create the parent directory.
+  This fixed a case with rsync/rsyncd where a file like "-i" in the
+  top-level directory sorts before ".", which meant the directory
+  creation is after the file creation.  Also PoolWrite errors now
+  increment xferError count.  Reported by Jeff Kosowsky.
+
+* BackupPC now gives a more useful error message if BackupPC_nightly
+  takes more than 24 hours (ie: when the next one is meant to
+  start).  Reported by Tony Schreiner.
+
+* Added more options to server backup command: rather than just forcing
+  an incremental or full backup, a regular (auto) backup can be queued
+  (ie: do nothing/incr/full based on schedule), as well as doing just
+  an incremental or full or nothing based on the client schedule.
+  Based on patches submitted by Joe Digilio.

+* Moved call to NmbLookupFindHostCmd in BackupPC_dump to after the
+  check of whether a backup needs to be done.  This makes wakeonlan
+  work correctly, rather than waking up the client every WakeupSchedule.
+  Reported by David Lasker.

+* Improved settings for compression and compext in BackupPC_archiveStart
+  based on compression type, as proposed by Paul Dugas.  compext is now

+  more easy customization of RsyncArgs on a per-client basis.
+  Proposed (with patch) by Raman Gupta.
+
