-??    ??
+1.4.11 or 1.5 ??
+       Fix check_http regression in 1.4.10 where following redirects to
+         relative URLs on virtual hosts failed if both "-H" and "-I" were used
+       Add stratum thresholds support to check_ntp (feature request #1703823)
+
+1.4.10 28th September 2007
+       Fix check_http buffer overflow vulnerability when following HTTP redirects
+       check_http now explicitly asks HTTP/1.1 servers to close the connection
+         after completion of the response
+       Check_ldaps' guessing which secure method to use (starttls vs. ssl on connect)  
+         is now deprecated. See --help for further information.
+       Check_disk now calls stat() on all filesystems to check. (Old: only the ones selected using -p) 
+         A meaningful error message (eg "Stale NFS Handle") is printed if stat fails.
+       New check_disk option -L: Only check local filesystems, but call stat() on remote ones, too.
+         Thus accessibility of remote filesystems can be checked without any threshold comparison.
+       Check_disk's --help now prints some examples for the new features introduced in 1.4.8
+       New check_disk -i/-I option to ignore pathes/partitions based on regular expressions
+       New check_disk -A option to select all filesystems explicitly
+       WARNING: check_disk's -E option must now be passed before -p or -r/-R arguments
+         Passing -E after -p or -r results in UNKNOWN state, now
+         This is needed due to the new ignore feature
+       Fix check_disk bug when mixing case sensitive and case insensitive regex arguments
+       New check_dhcp -u/--unicast option for emulating a DHCP relay in order
+         to check DHCP servers on remote networks
+       New check_dhcp -m/--mac option which allows for specifying the MAC
+         address to use in the DHCP request
+       The check_dhcp -r and -s options now accept host names, too
+       Fix possible check_icmp bus errors on some (non-x86/AMD64) platforms
+       Fix check_smtp's handling of multiple-packet server responses
+       WARNING: Fix for negate which may break existing commands:
+         - stop evaluating command line options through shell twice 
+         - enforce a full path for the command to run
+       The "negate" utility can now remap custom states
+       Check_radius now supports radiusclient-ng
+       The (undocumented) positional parameter parsing which check_radius used
+         instead of getopt(3) if 8 arguments were given is no longer available
+       Check_by_ssh now supports multiline output
+       IPv6 support can now be disabled using ./configure --without-ipv6
+       Fix check_ntp now honor ntp flags
+
+1.4.9 4th June 2006
+       Inclusion of contrib/check_cluster2 as check_cluster with some improvements
+       New/improved -E/--skip-stderr and -S/--skip-stdout options for check_by_ssh
+       check_snmp now supports Counter64
+       Fix compilation of check_ldap, check_radius and check_pgsql
+       check_load can optionally divide by number of cpus
+       Fix check_time returning wrong OK when time is before the epoch on some arch
+       Make check_http output more consistent
+       Fix possible check_http segfaults when following HTTP redirects
+       check_snmp don't warn anymore if something is printed on stderr
+       Fix check_tcp segfault when multiple expect strings are given
+       New option for check_tcp: -A/--all to test if all given expect strings match
+
+1.4.8 11th April 2007
+       Respects --without-world-permissions for setuid plugins
+       check_disk extra options for regex matching of filesystems and grouping of filesystems
+       for collective thresholds
+       Better configure test for mysqlclient availability
+       Various check_ntp fixes
+
+1.4.7 29th March 2007
+       check_procs uses /usr/ucb/ps if available - fixes pst3 problems on Solaris
        Fixed MKINSTALLDIRS problem in po/
+       ./configure now detects if possible to compile check_mysql
+       Fixed broken HELO in check_smtp
+       check_icmp now allows to set a minimum number of hosts required for successs (-m)
+       check_icmp fix for *BSD when running for long time
+       check_ping times out 1 second quicker if host is unreachable
        Root plugins installed with world executable
        check_sybase from contrib now maintained in NagiosExchange
+       --with-nagios-user/group reinstated ./configure option
+       New --without-world-permissions ./configure option
