-                   Release Notes for Samba 3.6.0pre1
-			     July 28, 2010

+Release Announcements

+This is the first preview release of Samba 4.4.  This is *not*
 intended for production environments and is designed for testing
 purposes only.  Please report any defects via the Samba bug reporting
 system at https://bugzilla.samba.org/.
 
+Samba 4.4 will be the next version of the Samba suite.
 
-Major enhancements in Samba 3.6.0 include:
 
+UPGRADING
+=========
 
-SMB2 support
-------------
+Nothing special.
 
+NEW FEATURES
+============
 
-Internal Winbind passdb changes
--------------------------------
+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.
 
-Winbind has been changed to use the internal samr and lsa rpc pipe to get
-local user and group information instead of calling passdb functions. The
-reason is to use more of our infrastructure and test this infrastructure by
-using it. With this approach more code in Winbind is shared.
+WINS nsswitch module
+====================
 
+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.
