+This is a BETA release, as such it's not guaranteed to work perfectly any
+problems let me know, they'll be sorted out in the next Beta release. At the
+point at which people stop complaining the non-beta release will be let out.
+
+FSP Development Battle plan:
+============================
+* for next 2.8 Stable version (will be called 2.8.2)
+- add FSP Rename command
+- add FSP change password command
+- add FSP info command
+- go out this version as soon as possible. 2.8.1b3 and lower are buggy.
+* for next point Stable version 2.8.3
+- add native symbolic link support
+- add FSP command for changing owners
+- add FSP command for listing directory owners
+
+FSP V2.8.1 Beta version Notes:
+------------------------------
+
+This is intended to be an interim release - with bugs-fixed and some
+enhancements (password file protection) Once it is out I intend for a
+discussion about the next release (FSP 3) to begin in earnest. The next major
+release should be 2.9.0 with the the code moving over to ANSI and POSIX
+compliance and first testing of new protocol. New protocol should have
+relieable authentification and data encryption. Work name FSP 3 protocol is
+secure-FSP.  New protocol definition will not be frozen until 3.0 comes out.
+
+If you have modifications which you feel fit neatly into this release then
+please send them in. If suitable they will be incorporated into the next Beta
+release and ultimately into the final release.
+
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This version is fully backwards compatible with 2.7.1 and 2.8.1 both from the
+client and the server viewpoints. Bar one thing, the reversed IP problem with
+restricted host lists has now been fixed, so if you've deliberately reversed
+the IP numbers in that list to get around the bug you should now put them back
+in the correct order again.
+
+Another point worth noting is that the next release will go to ANSI-C. If you
+have a problem with this then now is the time to let me know. I don't forsee
+any portability problems since I would expect that ANSI-C compliant compilers
+are available for all platforms by now. This move will aid both maintenance and
+any future use of C++ for Application Programming Interfaces.
+
+If you successfully build this distribution on a machine/OS/compiler
+combination which isn't listed in the MACHINES file then please drop me a line
+telling me that you've done it and what (if any) changes were required.
