+The output of rrdtool dump has been adjusted to be simpler to parse by
+existing xml parsers.
+
+The restore core has been completely re-written yet again and is now relying
+on an incremental xml parser. This has the advantage that the memory
+consumtion while restoring xml files is only slighly larger than the
+resulting rrd file. Which is much less than the requirements of the 1.3.

+RRD Graphing functions (rrdtool graph)
+--------------------------------------
+by Martin Sperl
+
+* VDEF PERCENTNAN (a PRECENT that ignores NAN)
+
+* CDEF PREDICT and PREDICTSIGMA functions for on-the-fly
+ data prediction without the need to modify existing rrd files as it is
+ required for HoltWinters.
+
+* LibDBI integration provides a path to read data directly of a supported
+ SQL database into rrdtool graph.
+
+Miscellaneous Changes
+---------------------
+
+* graph legends can now be placed left, right or above the graph with the
+ new --legend-direction and --legend-positon placement options.
+ by Melchior Rabe
+
+* switched to using automake 1.11 which provides a 'silent' build process,
+ causing errors and warnings to stand out much more than before.
+ by Tobi Oetiker
+
+* switched from intltoolize to autopoint for the i18n configuration.
+ by Tobi Oetiker
