+# x.xx  
+	
+	* Try harder to determine IP version for sFlow samples.
+	*	Add IPFIX support
+		(contributed by Daniel Piekacz)
+	*	Add experimental NetFlow v5 support
+		(contributed by Charlie Allom)
+	*	Fix handling of 64-bit counters for NetFlow v9
+
+# v1.41	
+
+	* Generate v6 RRD DS in contrib/sync_ds.pl too
+		(spotted by Peter Hansen)
+
+	* sFlow: fix creation of new RRDs when multiple entries with the same
+		tag are present in the known links file
+		(spotted by Michal Buchtik)
+
+	* Add startup scripts for FreeBSD (contrib/freebsd)
+		(contributed by Michal Buchtik)
+
+	* Add support for setting the sampling rate per link in the
+		knownlinks file.
+
+# v1.40	
+
+	*	Add support for NetFlow v9 to netflow-asstatd.pl
+		(sponsored by Xplornet Communications Inc.)
+
+	*	Add support for IPv6 (for NetFlow v9 and sFlow). Note: existing
+		RRDs need to be upgraded (new data sources added for v6) for
+		this to work. Enable $showv6 in www/config.inc to see separate
+		graphs for IPv6.
+
+	*	Add support for 4-byte ASNs (NetFlow v9 and sFlow). Needs testing.
+
+	*	Add RRA for 1 month at 4 hour resolution to newly created RRD files.
+
+	*	Add links to PeeringDB and robtex
+		(suggested by Steve Glendinning)
+
+	*	Fix AS-SET lookup on systems where the whois command returns
+		additional lines.
+
+# v1.36	
+
+	*	Fix creation of new RRDs when multiple entries with the same
+		tag are present in the known links file
+		(spotted by Michel Moriniaux)
+
+	*	Add feature to inspect all ASes in an AS-SET (automatic whois	lookup).
+		(contributed by Nicolas Debrigode)
+
+	*	Updated asinfo.txt with data from whois.cymru.com.
+
+# v1.35	
+	
+	*	Allow hyphens in link names.	(contributed by Gareth Campling)
+
+	*	Smooth I/O burstiness and reduce overall IOPS requirements
+		by flushing only 10% of the cache every 25 seconds (instead
+		of the entire cache at once every 60 seconds).
+		(contributed by James A. T. Rice)
+
+# v1.34	
+	
+	*	Fix for NaN detection in rrd-extractstats.pl for
+		64-bit Perl versions
+		(contributed by Benjamin Schlageter)
+
+	*	Skip missing data sources in rrd-extractstats.pl to avoid
+		abort if new data sources are added but the RRDs are not
+		updated.
+
+# v1.33	
+	
+	*	Fix for multiple entries with the same tag in the
+		knownlinks file (e.g. for LACP)
+		(contributed by Michal Buchtik)
+
+	*	Added sync_ds.pl script to contrib directory, which can
+		synchronize the data sources of RRD files with the tags
+		defined in the knownlinks file
+		(contributed by Michal Buchtik)
+
+	*	sflow-asstatd.pl now uses the agent IP instead of the
+		UDP source address - this makes it behave properly when
+		a proxy is being used
+		(contributed by Michel Moriniaux)
+
+# v1.32   
+	
+	*	Fix add_ds.sh to support new directory structure
+		(contributed by Sergei Veltistov)
+
+	*	Fix PHP warnings and move $ntop to config.inc
+		(contributed by Michal Buchtik)
+
+# v1.31	
+	
+	*	Set memory_limit to 256 MB in PHP pages (suggested by Steve Colam
+		<steve@colam.co.uk>).
+
+	*	Allow NetFlow aggregation version 0 as well as 2 to make NetFlow 
+	exports from Juniper routers work (suggested by Thomas Mangin
+     	<thomas.mangin@exa-networks.co.uk>).
+
+	*	Updated asinfo.txt with data from whois.cymru.com.
+
+# v1.3	Changes by Steve Colam <steve@colam.co.uk>:
+			- ...-asstatd.pl now accepts parameters (UDP listen port,
+			  sampling rate etc.) on the command line
+
+			  ****************************************************
+			  * Mind the new command line syntax when upgrading! *
+			  * Change your start script accordingly...          *
