+- A security flaw in the CGI cookie mechanisms was discovered -- the
+ Mailman-issued cookies were easily spoofable, implying that
+ e.g. admin access to all Mailman lists via the web interface could
+ be compromised. This flaw has now been fixed.
+
+- Handling of SMTP errors has been improved.
+
+- Both "Mass Subscription" via web admin interface and bin/add_members
+ have been greatly sped up.
+
+- autoconf check for syslog has been revamped, and is now verified to
+ work on SCO OpenServer 5. If syslog can't be found, the C wrappers
+ will compile, but without any syslog calls.
+
+- Various other bug fixes.
