-Changes between versions 0.4b21 and 0.4b22 (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).
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b22 and 0.4b23 (released July 20, 2001)
+===================================================================
+
+1.     Fixed a buffer overflow in restore/tape.c. Patch provided by
+       Marcus Meissner (Caldera International Security Dept.).
+
+2.     Implement the Sun rmt extended protocol. Patch submitted
+       by Ian Gordon <iangordon@users.sourceforge.net>.
+
+3.     Check for the e2fsprogs header <ext2fs/ext2_fs.h> instead of 
+       the linux kernel header. This ensures that dump always has the
+       latest version of this file. Patch submitted by
+       Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>.
+
+4.     Report any filesystem present in either /etc/fstab with a 
+       positive passno or /etc/dumpdates in dump -w output.
+       Patch submitted by Andreas Dilger <adilger@turbolinux.com>.
+
+5.     Fixed the looping problem in dump introduced in the 
+       previous version.
+
+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>. 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.
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b21 and 0.4b22 (released May 12, 2001)
+==================================================================
 
 1.     Made dump report the number of blocks dumped per volume.

        3 file descriptors per dump process (and there is one dump
        process per tape).
 
+11.    Fixed dump large file system support, by explicit use of
+       open64/lseek64/etc functions (explicit use needed because 
+       e2fsprogs libraries don't behave well when compiled with 
+       FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64).
