+Changes Prior to 1.10.0 release
+    -   Fix bug with --config=partitions
+    -   Open sub-devices with O_EXCL to detect if already in use
+
 Changes Prior to 1.9.0 release
     -   Fix rpm build problem (stray %)
+    -   Minor manpage updates
+    -   Change "dirty" status to "active" as it was confusing people.
+    -   --assemble --auto recognises 'standard' name and insists on using
+        the appropriate major/minor number for them.
+    -   Remove underscore from partition names, so partitions of 
+       "foo" are "foo1", "foo2" etc (unchanged) and partitions of
+       "f00" are "f00p1", "f00p2" etc rather than "f00_p1"...
+    -   Use "major", "minor", "makedev" macros instead of 
+       "MAJOR", "MINOR", "MKDEV" so that large device numbers work
+       on 2.6 (providing you have glibc 2.3.3 or later).
+    -   Add some missing closes of open file descriptors.
+    -   Reread /proc/partition for every array assembled when using
+       it to find devices, rather than only once.
+    -   Make "mdadm -Ss" stop stacked devices properly, by reversing the
+       order in which arrays are stopped.
+    -   Improve some error messages.
+    -   Allow device name to appear before first option, so e.g.
+       mdadm /dev/md0 -A /dev/sd[ab]
+       works.
+    -   Assume '-Q' if just a device is given, rather than being silent.
 
 Changes Prior to 1.8.0 release
