Eric,

Any information on specific changes since the 1.0x releases? I know about
the ACL/EA interface changes, and obviously there has been lots of bug
fixes, but what about other changes, like performance enhancements, etc? I
know the changes will be in the Changelog in the tarball, but I'm on a
Windows machine; can't easily grab those. :-(
