-Changes between versions 0.4b22 and 0.4b23 (released ????????????)
-==================================================================
+Changes between versions 0.4b23 and 0.4b24 (released ?????????????)
+===================================================================
+
+1. Fixed the permissions of a newly created QFA file by dump.
+
+2. Cleaned up the source of dump (the external variables
+ definition was a complete mess, making possible to have
+ objects overlap).
+
+3. Fixed restore to use the full tape volume path when doing
+ a compare (since it changes the working directory to the
+ filesystem being compared in the process).
+
+4. Added the -q option to dump which makes dump abort
+ whenever it needs operator attention. It should be
+ easier to use dump in scripts with this option.
+
+5. Detect the use of incompatible options to dump and
+ refuse them (like -a and -B options together).

1. Fixed a buffer overflow in restore/tape.c. Patch provided by
Marcus Meissner (Caldera International Security Dept.).
6. Changed the -B option of dump to limit the size of
_compressed_ output per volume if compression is on.
Patch contributed by Helmut Jarausch
- <jarausch@igpm.rwth-aachen.de>.
+ <jarausch@igpm.rwth-aachen.de>. Note however that, since
+ it is impossible to predict the size of the compressed
+ data before doing the compression, the -B limit is a bit
+ conservative.
+
+7. Fixed a bug in reading the operator typed file/tape path for
+ the next volume in restore.
+
+8. Implemented a "-F script" option to restore which permits the
+ user to specify a script which will be launched at the
+ beginning of each tape, useful for automatic programming of
+ tape changers for example. See the restore man page for the
+ script parameters and return codes.
+
+9. Small fix for the QFA routines provided by Uwe Gohlke
+ <uwe@ugsoft.de>, and some recommendations for QFA uses in
+ the man pages.
+
+10. Fixed the multivolume restoring where making a mistake
+ to the 'Mount next tape' prompt caused several blocks to
+ be lost.
+
+11. Enhanced the -e option of dump to take as a parameter a
+ comma separated list of inode numbers.
+
+12. Added the -E option to dump which specify a file containing
+ inode numbers to exclude from the dump.
+
+13. Fixed the compressed multi-volume dump + restore.
