 	    regression. Rob Holland and Roy Marples chased this one
 	    down.

+version 2.23
+	    Added a check to ensure that there cannot be more than one
+	    dhcp-host option for any one IP address, even if the
+	    addresses are assigned indirectly via a hostname and
+	    /etc/hosts.
+
+	    Include a "server identifier" in DHCPNAK replies, as
+	    required by RFC2131.
+
+	    Added method  support for DBus
+	    (http://www.freedesktop.org/Software/dbus)
+	    This is a superior way to re-configure dnsmasq on-the-fly
+	    with different upstream nameservers, as the host moves
+	    between networks. DBus support must be enabled in
+	    src/config.h and should be considered experimental at this
+	    point. See DBus-interface for the specification of the
+	    DBus method calls supported.
+
+	    Added information to the FAQ about setting the DNS domain
+	    in windows XP and Mac OS X, thanks to Rick Hull.
+
+	    Added sanity check to resolv.conf polling code to cope
+	    with backwards-moving clocks. Thanks to Leonardo Canducci
+	    for	help with this.
+
+	    Handle so-called "A-for-A" queries, which are queries for
+	    the address associated with a name which is already a
+	    dotted-quad address. These should be handled by the
+	    resolver code, but sometimes aren't and there's no point
+	    in forwarding them.
+
+	    Added "no-dhcp-interface" option to disable DHCP service
+            on an interface, whilst still providing DNS.
+
+	    Fix format-string problem - config file names get passed
+	    to fprintf as a format string, so % characters could cause
+	    crashes. Thanks to Rob Holland for sleuthing that one.
+
+	    Fixed multiple compiler warnings from gcc 4. Thanks to 
+	    Tim Cutts for the report.
+
+	    Send the hostname option on DHCP offer messages as well as
+	    DHCP ack messages. This is required by the Rio Digital 
+	    Audio Receiver. Thanks to Ron Frederick for the patch.
+ 
+            Add 'd' (for day) as a possible time multiplier in lease 
+	    time specifications. Thanks to Michael Deegan.
+
+	    Make quoting suppress recognition of IP addresses, so
+	    dhcp-option=66,1.2.3.4 now means something different to
+            dhcp-option=66,"1.2.3.4", which sets the option to a
+	    string value. Thanks to Brian Macauley for the bug report.
+
+	    Fixed the option parsing code to avoid segfaults from some
+	    invalid configurations. Thanks to Wookey for spotting that one.
+ 
+            Provide information about which compile-time options were 
+	    selected, both in the log at startup and as part of the output 
+            from dnsmasq --version. Thanks to Dirk Schenkewitz for 
+            the suggestion. 
+
+	    Fix pathalogical behaviour when a broken client keeps sending
+            DHCPDISCOVER messages repeatedly and fast. Because dealing with
+            each of these takes a few seconds, (because of the ping) then a 
+	    queue of DHCP packets could build up. Now, the results of a ping 
+            test are assumed to be valid for 30 seconds, so repeated waits are
+            not required. Thanks to Luca Landi for finding this.
+
+	    Allow DHCPINFORM requests without hardware address
+	    information. These are generated by some browsers, looking
+	    for proxy information. Thanks to Stanley Jaddoe for the
+	    bug report on that.
+
+	    Add support of the "client FQDN" DHCP option. If present,
+	    this is used to allow the client to tell dnsmasq its name,
+	    in preference to (mis)using the hostname option. See 
+              http://tools.ietf.org/wg/dhc/draft-ietf-dhc-fqdn-option/\
+                draft-ietf-dhc-fqdn-option-10.txt
+            for details of the draft spec.
+
+	    Added startup scripts for MacOS X Tiger/Panther to the 
+            contrib collection. Thanks to Tim Cutts.
+
+	    Tweak DHCP network selection so that clients which turn up
+	    on our network in REBINDING state and with a lease for a
+	    foreign network will get a NAK response. Thanks to Dan
+	    Shechter for work on this and an initial patch and thanks
+	    to Gyorgy Farkas for further testing.
+
+	    Fix DNS query forwarding for empty queries and forward
+	    queries even when the recursion-desired bit is clear. This
+	    allows "dig +trace" to work. Problem report from Uwe
+	    Gansert.
+
+	    Added "const" declarations where appropriate, thanks to
+	    Andreas Mohr for the patch.
+
+	    Added --bootp-dynamic option and associated
+	    functionality. Thanks to Josef Wolf for the suggestion.
