2since 2.2.0: server-to-server relay is possible
3
4 -- this implies that problems will arise if your server is misconfigured
5 to connect to itself (SetExportSeverity is explicitely set
6 to a threshold different from 'none', and the logserver is set to
7 localhost). The server may deadlock in this case.

10
11since 2.1.0: update and daemon mode can be combined
12
13 -- this implies that '-t update' will start a daemon process if running as
14 daemon is the default specified in the config file. use '--foreground'
15 to avoid starting a daemon process

18
19from 1.7.x to 1.8.x: client/server encryption protocol has been enhanced
20
21 -- 1.7.x clients can connect to a 1.8.x server
22
23 -- 1.8.x clients can only connect to a 1.7.x server, if they
24 are built with --enable-encrypt=1

28from 1.6.x to 1.7.x: things to watch out for
29
30 -- the log server drops root privileges after startup; it needs a logfile
31 directory with write access for the unprivileged user now
32
33 -- the PID file does not double as lock for the log file anymore; the
34 log file has its own lock now (same path, with .lock appended)
35
36 -- by default, the HTML status page of the server is in the log directory
37 now; this allows to make the data directory read-only for the server
