+* New pppd options have been added:
+ - ifname, to set the name for the PPP interface device
+ - defaultroute-metric, to set the metric for the default route
+ - defaultroute6, to add an IPv6 default route (with nodefaultroute6
+ to prevent adding an IPv6 default route)
+ - up_sdnotify, to have pppd notify systemd when the link is up.
+
+* The rp-pppoe plugin has new options:
+ - host-uniq, to set the Host-Uniq value to send
+ - pppoe-padi-timeout, to set the timeout for discovery packets
+ - pppoe-padi-attempts, to set the number of discovery attempts.
+
+* Added the CLASS attribute in radius packets.
+
+* Sundry bug fixes.
+
+* Fixed warnings and issues found by static analysis.
+
+* Added Submitting-patches.md.
+
+
+What was new in ppp-2.4.7.
+**************************
+
+* Fixed a potential security issue in parsing option files (CVE-2014-3158).
+
+* There is a new "stop-bits" option, which takes an argument of 1 or 2,
+ indicating the number of stop bits to use for async serial ports.
+
+* Various bug fixes.
+
+
+What was new in ppp-2.4.6.
+**************************
+
+* Man page updates.
+
+* Several bug fixes.
+
+* Options files can now set and unset environment variables for
+ scripts.
+
+* The timeout for chat scripts can now be taken from an environment
+ variable.
+
+* There is a new option, master_detach, which allows pppd to detach
+ from the controlling terminal when it is the multilink bundle master
+ but its own link has terminated, even if the nodetach option has
+ been given.
+
+
+What was new in ppp-2.4.5.
+**************************
+
+* Under Linux, pppd can now operate in a mode where it doesn't request
+ the peer's IP address, as some peers refuse to supply an IP address.
+ Since Linux supports device routes as well as gateway routes, it's
+ possible to have no remote IP address assigned to the ppp interface
+ and still route traffic over it.
+
+* Pppd now works better with 3G modems that do strange things such as
+ sending IPCP Configure-Naks with the same values over and over again.
+
+* The PPP over L2TP plugin is included, which works with the pppol2tp
+ PPP channel code in the Linux kernel. This allows pppd to be used
+ to set up tunnels using the Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol.
+
+* A new 'enable-session' option has been added, which enables session
+ accounting via PAM or wtwp/wtmpx, as appropriate. See the pppd man
+ page for details.
+
+* Several bugs have been fixed.
+
+
+What was new in ppp-2.4.4.
+**************************
+
+* Pppd will now run /etc/ppp/ip-pre-up, if it exists, after creating
+ the ppp interface and configuring its IP addresses but before
+ bringing it up. This can be used, for example, for adding firewall
+ rules for the interface.
+
+* Lots of bugs fixed, particularly in the area of demand-dialled and
+ persistent connections.
+
+* The rp-pppoe plugin now accepts any interface name (that isn't an
+ existing pppd option name) without putting "nic-" on the front of
+ it, not just eth*, nas*, tap* and br*.
+
+
+What was new in ppp-2.4.3.
