+Changes in CTDB 2.5.3
+=====================
+
+User-visible changes
+--------------------
+
+* New configuration variable CTDB_NATGW_STATIC_ROUTES allows NAT
+ gateway feature to create static host/network routes instead of
+ default routes. See the documentation. Use with care.
+
+Important bug fixes
+-------------------
+
+* ctdbd no longer crashes when tickles are processed after reloading
+ the nodes file.
+
+* "ctdb reloadips" works as expected because the DEL_PUBLIC_IP control
+ now waits until public IP addresses are released before returning.
+
+Important internal changes
+--------------------------
+
+* Vacuuming performance has been improved.
+
+* Record locking now compares records based on their hashes to avoid
+ scheduling multiple requests for records on the same hashchain.
+
+* An internal timeout for revoking read-only record relegations has
+ been changed from hard-coded 5 seconds to the value of the
+ ControlTimeout tunable. This makes it less likely that ctdbd will
+ abort.
+
+* Many test improvements and additions.
