+<P>SuSE's security team audited uuidd and came up with a few minor
+issues.  None of them are serious given that uuidd runs setuid as a
+unprivileged user which has no special access other than libuuid
+directory, but it's good to get them fixed.</P>
+
+<P>One additional fix in ext2fs_swap_inode_full() needed for resize2fs to
+work correctly with in-inode extended attributes.</P>
+
+<P>Updated German, Czech, Dutch, French, Polish, Sweedish, and Vietnamese
+translations.</P>
+
+<P>Debugfs will avoid using a pager if the standard output is not a tty.</P>
+
+<P>Fix debugfs and tune2fs to correctly handle daylight savings time when
+parsing a time string.</P>
+
+<P>Fixed spelling mistakes, typos, and otherwise clarified man pages.</P>
+
+<P>Fix fsck completion bars when multiple filesystems were being checked
+in parallel.  (Addresses Debian Bug: #432865, Addresses Launchpad Bug:
+#203323, Addresses Sourceforge Bug: #1926023)</P>
+
+<P>Fix fsck so that progress information is sent back correctly when
+multiple filesystems are being check and the output of fsck is being
+redirected to a file descriptor.  Also, include the device name (w/o
+spaces) in the progress information sent back via a file descriptor.
+(Addresses Launchpad Bug: #203323, Addresses Sourceforge Bug:
+#1926023)</P>
+
+<P>Teach fsck to treat "ext4" and "ext4dev" as ext* filesystems.</P>
+
+<P>If logsave receives a SIGTERM or SIGINT signal, it will now pass that
+signal to its child process.</P>
+
+<P>Fix mke2fs's creation of are resize inode when there is a non-standard
+s_first_data_block setting.</P>
+
+<P>Fix bug in blkid when run by an unprivileged user; most devices were
+not reported correctly.  9Addresses Launchpad Bug: #220275)</P>
+
+<P>Mke2fs will not allow the logically incorect combination of
+resize_inode and meta_bg, which had previously caused mke2fs to create
+a corrupt fileystem.</P>
+
+<P>Fix fsck in German locales so that a 'j' means yes.
+(Addresses Sourceforge Bug: #1947683)</P>
+
+<h3>Programmer's notes:</h3>
+
+<P>Fixed various Debian packaging issues --- see debian/changelog for
+details.</P>
+
+<P>Update valgrind options in test_script to work with valgrind 3.2.3</P>
+
+<P>Update texinfo.tex to a much newer version from the FSF.</P>
+
+<P>Remove bashism for configure script and from the lib/ss Makefile.
+Addresses Sourceforge Bug: 1921969</P>
+
+<P>Fix some silently broken tests: m_no_opt, m_meta_bg, and m_raid_opt.</P>
+
+<P>Fix build system so that if texinfo is not installed, it won't print a
+(harmless) error message.</P>
