-darkstat v3.0.540 and earlier defaulted to running in the foreground
-and had a "-d" commandline argument to get darkstat to daemonize,
-detach from the controlling terminal, and run in the background.
+Changes to defaults, most recent first:
-Since r540, the default has been inverted. darkstat will daemonize by
-default.
+- After v3.0.717, the user must specify a --chroot dir for chroot() to happen.
+ We don't set a default in the configure script anymore.
-Since r626, this behaviour can be suppressed with the "--debug"
-commandline argument, to force darkstat to stay in the foreground for
-debugging purposes.
+- After v3.0.708, --debug was split into --verbose and --no-daemon.
-The "-d" argument is no longer recognized, and will prevent darkstat
-from starting, so make sure you adjust any startup scripts you may have.
+- Since v3.0.694, darkstat is able to save its internal database into a file and
+ reload it on startup. The file format is, by design, incompatible with the
+ format from darkstat v2.
-After 3.0.708, --debug was split into --verbose and --no-daemon.
+- After v3.0.626, daemonizing can be suppressed with the "--debug" commandline
+ argument, to force darkstat to stay in the foreground for debugging purposes.
