-Changes between versions 0.4b23 and 0.4b24 (released ?????????????)
-===================================================================
+Changes between versions 0.4b24 and 0.4b25 (released November 17, 2001)
+=======================================================================
+
+1.     Added a mini howto from Patrick Walsh in the examples 
+       directory.
+
+2.     Minor man pages syntax corrections. Thanks to
+       Chris Danis <screechco@home.com> for reporting the bugs.
+
+3.     Added a script from David B. Peterson <dave@toppledwagon.com>
+       to the examples section. It features dumping several
+       filesystems to a remote tape drive upon ssh.
+
+4.     Added a patch provided by Richard Jones <rich@annexia.org>
+       which allows BRADEMAX (number of read errors tolerated by
+       dump) to be adjusted using the -I option.
+
+5.     Fixed a bug which disabled doing "restore -C -f -". Thanks
+        to Clemens Stiglechner <a9401816@unet.univie.ac.at> for the
+       patch.
+
+6.     Add the -l option to restore to specify if, when doing a
+        remote restore, the file used to access the backup is a
+       regular file (the defaults being a tape drive). Restore needs
+       to know this information when reading a remote compressed 
+       dump. Previously, this information was autodetected, but
+       the autodetection code fails (with ioctl: Inappropriate ioctl 
+       for device) when using a non Linux remote box. Thanks to 
+       many users and especially to Eros Albertazzi 
+       <eros@lamel.bo.cnr.it> for reporting this.
+
+7.     Found a workaroung for the dump deadlock problem (3 childs 
+       stuck in pause(), father in read()). The workaround seems
+       to work for me and several beta-testers. If it doesn't work
+       for you, please report back.
+
+8.     Updated the RPM spec file (BuildPrereq, URL etc).
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b23 and 0.4b24 (released September 12, 2001)
+========================================================================
 
 1.     Fixed the permissions of a newly created QFA file by dump.
