+       * dns/zone.py (from_xfr): dns.zone.from_xfr() now takes a
+         'check_origin' parameter which defaults to True.  If set to
+         False, then dnspython will not make origin checks on the zone.
+         Thanks to Carlos Perez for the report.
+
        * dns/rdtypes/ANY/SSHFP.py (SSHFP.from_text): Allow whitespace in
          the text string.  Thanks to Jan Andres for the report and the
          patch.
