+* After creating an archive, tar exits with code 1 if some files were
+changed while being read.  Previous versions exited with code 2 (fatal
+error), and only if some files were truncated while being archived.
+
+* New option --mtime allows to set modification times for all archive
+members during creation. 
+
+* Bug fixes
+** Avoid running off file descriptors when using multiple -C options.
+** tar --index-file=FILE --file=- sent the archive to FILE, and
+the listing to stderr.

 ** New incremental snapshot file format keeps information about file names 
 as well as that about directories.
 
+** The --checkpoint option takes an optional argument specifying the number
+of records between the two successive checkpoints.   Optional dot
+starting the argument intructs tar to print dots instead of textual
+checkpoints. 
+
+** The --totals option can be used with any tar operation (previous versions
+understood it only with --create).  If an argument to this option is
+given, it specifies the signal upon delivery of which the statistics

+argument) can be given to in a single invocation of tar.
