+Since 1.3.77:
+  * Correct deadlock condition in cm_EndCallbackGrantingCall which can
+    be triggered if the volume referenced by the cm_scache_t object is
+    offline.
+
+  * The AFS Service needs to respond to SERVICE_ACCEPT_SHUTDOWN messages
+    in addition to SERVICE_ACCEPT_STOP.
+
+  * Move RPC shutdown until after the SMB and RX shutdown procedures 
+    complete.  Block until RPC shutdown is complete.
+
+  * Modify afslogon.dll (integrated logon) to wait for service if its
+    state is START_PENDING.  If the timeout period occurs, reset to 
+    the retry interval and not the sleep interval.
+
+  * When renewing the server list for a cell obtained via DNS AFSDB
+    records, the cm_cell_t entry must be removed from the list of all 
+    cells.  Otherwise, the list of cells will be corrupted.
+ 
+  * In the dcache and scache modules, use the cm_scache_t dataVersion
+    instead of the cm_fakeDirVersion.  
+
+  * Synchronize fs.c with the unix version.
+
+  * The variable used to determine whether a file or virtual memory
+    mapped cache is used was not properly initialized to a default
+    value. If the registry setting "NonPersistentCaching" was not
+    set, the choice would be random.   Properly initialized to be
+    "file".
+
+  * The memory mapped view was never unmapped before closing the file
+    at service shutdown.  This is now properly cleaned up.
+
+  * Default location of Cache file is now %TEMP%\AFSCache

+
+  * A bug affecting new installations of 1.3.75/76 would result in
+    the creating of incorrect mountpoints in the freelance root.afs 
+    volume for the default cell.
+
+    If "fs \\afs\all\<cellname>" lists a volume name of "root" instead
+    of "root.cell", you have been affected by the bug.  To correct the
+    problem, execute the following commands:

+          fs mkmount \\afs\all\.<cellname> root.cell <cellname> -rw
+
+Since 1.3.75:
+
+  * A bug has been fixed in the auto-generation of Freelance root.afs
+    symlinks which produced random entries in the \\AFS\all directory.
+
+  * Support has been added for multi-homed servers
+
 Since 1.3.74:
+  * Added a new registry value, "StoreAnsiFilenames", which can be used
+    to force the use of ANSI character sets instead of OEM Code Pages.
+    This feature is useful when users require the ability to create 
+    filenames with 8-bit characters and need to access the files from
+    both Latin-1 based Unix systems as well as from Windows.
+
+    Activation of this feature will prevent access to files stored with
+    8-bit OEM characters.
+
+  * Shutdown all SMB threads in a synchronized manner when stopping the 
+    service.
+ 
   * There is currently a maximum cache size of 1.3GB.  The limit is imposed
     by the largest contiguous block of unused memory within the 2GB process
     space which can be assigned to the memory mapped file.  Unfortunately,
