     Libguestfs can now handle > 25 disks, in all APIs, tools and tests.
 
+    Several libguestfs APIs were reimplemented so they no longer suffer
+    from any protocol limits. The reimplemented APIs are: guestfs_cat,
+    guestfs_find, guestfs_read_file, guestfs_read_lines, guestfs_write,
+    guestfs_write_append, guestfs_lstatlist, guestfs_lxattrlist,
+    guestfs_readlinklist, guestfs_ls.

     guestfish touch 'win:c:\new_file' now works as expected.
 
-    rsync and ssh commands are now availble in virt-rescue.
+    guestfish has a new --network option, which enables the user network in
+    libguestfs.
+
+    rsync and ssh commands are now availble in virt-rescue. In addition,
+    rsync can be used through the API for doing incremental copies.
 
     virt-sparsify uses qcow2 v3 for increased efficiency.

     In Ruby, optional arguments hash is optional.
