+NOT RELEASED YET
+Changes in lyskomd 1.8.0 (Release date 1995-11-??)
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+* WARNING: This release of lyskomd contains an incompatible change in
+  the database format.  Once lyskomd 1.8.0 saves the database you
+  cannot revert to older versions of 1.7.1.  This is because a
+  Conf-type now is 8 bits long.  The protocol is, of course, backwards
+  compatible, so you do not need to upgrade the clients to be able to
+  run lyskomd 1.8.0.  Just make sure you save a copy of your database.
+
+* If configured with --with-gnu-malloc lyskomd will use the GNU malloc
+  package instead of the system-supplied malloc.  GNU malloc is
+  included in the distribution.
+
+* The asynchronous message async_rejected_connection is now sent at
+  most once per minute.
+
+* Lyskomd 1.8.0 implements protocol A level 8.  See doc/prot-A.txt for
+  information about the new features it contains.
+
+* You can now specify where lyskomd should dump core (if that should
+  ever happen) using the "Core directory" parameter.
+
+* Can now handle 1500000 texts and 4765 persons/conferences.
+
+* Text garbing can now be turned off completely from the config file.
+
+* dbck -t now dumps a list of all existing text numbers to stdout.
+
+* Some minor portability fixes.  Some bug fixes.  See the various
+  ChangeLogs for details.
