 Nothing special.
 
-NEW FEATURES
-============
-
-Flush requests from SMB2/3 clients are handled asynchronously and do
-not block the processing of other requests. Note that 'strict sync'
-has to be set to 'yes' for Samba to honor flush requests from SMB
-clients.
 
-WINS nsswitch module
+NEW FEATURES/CHANGES
 ====================
 
-The WINS nsswitch module has been rewritten to address memory issues and to
-simplify the code. The module now uses libwbclient to do WINS queries. This
-means that winbind needs to be running in order to resolve WINS names using
-the nss_wins module. This does not affect smbd.
+Support for LDAP_SERVER_NOTIFICATION_OID
