-Changes between versions 0.4b22 and 0.4b23 (released ????????????)
-==================================================================
+Changes between versions 0.4b23 and 0.4b24 (released September 12, 2001)
+========================================================================
+
+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).
+
+6.	Added bzip2 compression to dump/restore (use option -j level 
+	to select it). Note that you will need a restore version
+	>= 0.4b24 in order to restore a bzip2 compressed dump.
+	The same warning as for the zlib compression applies:
+	the tape format of a bzip2 dump is not compatible with the
+	original BSD tape format.
+
+7.	Fixed a overflow problem in dump corrupting the dump when
+	very large files were encountered. Thanks to Vladimir Nadvornik 
+	for the bug report.
+
+8.	Added a ioctl(BLKFLSBUF) in dump which should flush the
+	kernel buffer/page cache before starting the dump, helping
+	a bit those who use dump on mounted filesystems. Thanks to
+	John Yu <jky@it.bu.edu> and to Theodore T'so <tytso@mit.edu>
+	for this suggestion.
+
+9.	Updated the RPM spec file following the RedHat changes 
+	(dynamically linked binaries now in /usr/sbin etc).
+
+10.	Added a patch from Helmut Jarausch <jarausch@igpm.rwth-aachen.de>
+	which enables restore to recognise multi volume compressed dumps
+	done on CD. Included his scripts for dump (which pipe the dump
+	output directly into cdrecord) and restore. There is now 
+	possible to to backups to CD on the fly!

 6.	Changed the -B option of dump to limit the size of 
 	_compressed_ output per volume if compression is on.

 7.	Fixed a bug in reading the operator typed file/tape path for
 	the next volume in restore.
