+==============
+
+The Netatalk development team is proud to announce version 3.0.3 of
+the Netatalk File Sharing suite. This is the latest update to the 3.0
+release series. All users are encouraged to upgrade their systems to 3.0.3.
+
+Netatalk is a freely-available Open Source AFP fileserver.
+A *NIX/*BSD system running Netatalk is capable of serving many Macintosh
+clients simultaneously as an AppleShare file server (AFP).
+
+The suite contains:
+
+* netatalk - the main server service controller
+* afpd - the AFP file server daemin
+* cnid_metad - the CNID database multiplexing daemon
+* cnid_dbd - the CNID database daemon serving CNIDs for AFP volumes
+* various supporting programs and utilities
+
+Summary of major new features and enhancements in 3.0
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* New ini style configuration file afp.conf which replaces all previous
+ configuration files
+* New default AppleDouble backend using filesystem Extended Attributes,
+ conversion from AppleDouble v2 is done automatically on access
+* New service controller process "netatalk" responsible for starting and
+ restarting afpd and cnid_metad as necessary
+* AppleTalk support has been removed
+* Coherent cross-platform locking with Solaris CIFS server
+
+Please make sure to read the upgrading section in the Netatalk online
+manual before trying to upgrade your system to 3.0!

+
+Changes in 3.0.2
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+* NEW: afpd: Put file extension type/creator mapping back in which had
+ been removed in 3.0.
+* NEW: afpd: new option 'ad domain'. From FR #66.
+* FIX: volumes and home share with symlinks in the path
+* FIX: Copying packages to a Netatalk share could fail, bug #469
+* FIX: Reloading volumes from config file was broken. Fixes bug #474.

+ server. symlinks may point outside of the AFP volume, currently
+ afpd doesn't do any checks for "wide symlinks".
