+2009-09-13, Version 4.8.0
+
+       * collectd: Two new data source types, “DERIVE” and “ABSOLUTE”, have
+         been added. “DERIVE” can be used for counters that are reset
+         occasionally. Thanks to Mariusz Gronczewski for implementing this.
+       * thresholds: The advanced threshold options “Percentage”, “Hits”, and
+         “Hysteresis” have been added. Thanks to Andrés J. Díaz for hit
+         patches.
+       * curl_json plugin: The new cURL-JSON plugin reads JSON files using
+         the cURL library and parses the contents according to user
+         specification. Among other things, this allows to read statistics
+         from a CouchDB instance. Thanks to Doug MacEachern for the patch.
+       * df plugin: Using the new “ReportByDevice” option the device rather
+         than the mount point can be used to identify partitions. Thanks to
+         Paul Sadauskas for the patch.
+       * dns plugin: The possibility to ignore numeric QTypes has been added.
+         Thanks to Mirko Buffoni for the patch.
+       * GenericJMX plugin: The new, Java-based GenericJMX plugin allows to
+         query arbitrary data from a Java process using the “Java Management
+         Extensions” (JMX).
+       * madwifi plugin: The new MadWifi plugin collects information about
+         Atheros wireless LAN chipsets from the MadWifi driver. Thanks to
+         Ondrej Zajicek for his patches.
+       * network plugin: The receive- and send-buffer-sizes have been made
+         configurable, allowing for bigger and smaller packets. Thanks to
+         Aman Gupta for the patch.
+       * olsr plugin: The new OLSR plugin queries routing information from
+         the “Optimized Link State Routing” daemon.
+       * rrdtool plugin: A new configuration option allows to define a random
+         write delay when writing RRD files. This spreads the load created by
+         writing RRD files more evenly. Thanks to Mariusz Gronczewski for the
+         patch.
+       * swap plugin: The possibility to collect swapped in/out pages has
+         been added to the Swap plugin. Thanks to Stefan Völkel for the
+         patch.
+       * tokyotyrant plugin: The new TokyoTyrant plugin reads the number of
+         records and file size from a running Tokyo Tyrant server. Thanks to
+         Paul Sadauskas for the patch.
+       * write_http plugin: The new Write HTTP plugin sends the values
+         collected by collectd to a web-server using HTTP POST requests.
+         Thanks to Paul Sadauskas for the patch.
+       * zfs_arc plugin: The new ZFS ARC plugin collects information about
+         the “Adaptive Replacement Cache” (ARC) of the “Zeta File-System”
+         (ZFS). Thanks to Anthony Dewhurst for the patch.
+       * empty_counter match: The new Empty Counter match matches value
+         lists, where at least one data source is of type COUNTER and the
+         counter value of all counter data sources is zero.
+
 2009-07-19, Version 4.7.2
        * Build system: Support for `DESTDIR' has been fixed in the Java
          bindings.
