 experiment, or for sites that desperately need the new features.
 
             CHANGES FROM VERSION 2.0 BETA 1 PATCHLEVEL 9
 
+- Correct the hopelessly outdated information about Linux at the top
+  of the README - many apologies to the Linux people who have had to
+  read that nonsense for the past couple of snapshots and have been
+  confused or annoyed by it.   I simply hadn't read it recently, and
+  didn't realize how out-of-date it was.
+
+- Print a message if the client finds no broadcast interfaces to
+  configure.
+
+- Add support for use-lease-addr-for-default-route flag in server, so
+  that Windows machines can be made to ARP for all addresses.
+
+- Update README file to mention new Linux gotchas.
+
+- After finally understanding Brian Murrel's code (my fault, not his)
+  to get interface names from /proc/net/dev on Linux, fix what I broke
+  of his code and document it.
+
+- Use sendto rather than send for SOCK_PACKET sockets, because they
+  can't be connected, only bound.   :'(
+
+- Fix up SOCK_PACKET creation so that the kernel doesn't complain
+  about it.
+
+- Fix incorrect tests in linux client script:
+  [ $relmajor == 2 ] -> [ $relmajor -eq 2 ]
+
+- Make typedefs for u8, u16 and u32 types.   These are Linux kernel
+  internal data types which are unfortunately exposed in the linux
+  packetfilter header file.
+
+- Don't include <net/ethernet.h> in lpf.c - it defines things we're
+  already correctly defining elsewhere, and doesn't define any useful
+  new stuff.
+
 - Finally fix client PREINIT bug that causes interfaces not specified
   on the command line to be preinitialized.   If no interfaces are
   specified on the command line, all interfaces are still
