+<h3>Rsync 2.6.3pre2 released</h3>
+
+<p><i style="color:#777777">September 21th, 2004</i>
+
+<p>Rsync version 2.6.3pre2 has been released.  It contains a few bug fixes and
+one minor new feature compared with 2.6.3pre1.  This release should be the last
+one prior to 2.6.3, so please give it a good workout.
+
+<p>See the <a href="/ftp/rsync/preview/rsync-2.6.3pre2-NEWS">release NEWS</a> for the
+details of what changed since 2.6.2.
+
+<p>The changes since 2.6.3pre1 are:
+
+<ul>
+
+<li> Fixed the combination of --inplace and --backup to work properly.
+Also optimized this combination to use the backup file as the basis
+file for a more optimal transfer.
+
+<li> Improved the combination of --keep-dirlinks and --delete so that only
+symlinks-to-directories on the receiver that match a real directory
+on the sender are treated as if they were a real directory.  This
+eliminates some weird delete behavior for symlinks that point inside
+the transferred hierarchy.
+
+<li> Also added support for the RSYNC_PARTIAL_DIR environment variable
+that, when found, transforms a regular --partial option (such as
+the convenient -P option) into one that also specifies a directory.
+
+<li> Added the ability to parse a literal IPv6 address in an "rsync:" URL
+(e.g. rsync://[2001:638:500:101::21]:873/module/dir).
+
+<li> The "backed up ..." message that is output when at least 2 --verbose
+options are specified is now the same both with and without the
+--backup-dir option.
+
+<li> The file-list that is output when at least 4 verbose options are
+specified reports the uid value on the sender even when rsync is
+not running as root (since we might be sending to a root receiver).
+
+<li> Fixed a typo in the RERR_VANISHED error message.
+
+<li> We once again allow --include/--exclude options to be specified on
+the server's command-line, even though rsync doesn't use this
+combination itself (since other software does).  The parsing of these
+options also ensures that a daemon transfer can't be told to use a
+file that was excluded in the module's config section.
+
+<li> We now reject the combination of --inplace with either --compare-dest
+or --link-dest (since the rsync protocol will need to be extended to
+tell the server when the generator is using an adjunct file as the
+basis-file and when it is using the destination file directly).
+
+<li> Fixed a bug that could cause a slow-to-connect rsync daemon to die
+with an error instead of waiting for the connection to finish.
+
+<li> Fixed a problem with --delete-after not happening if 2.6.3 was
+talking to an rsync older than 2.5.6 as the receiver.
+
+</ul>
