 Some major user-visible changes include:
 
-The default file server for EXISTING USERS has changed to s3fs.  To
-continue to use ntvfs, you must set in your smb.conf:
-
-    server services = +smb -s3fs
-    dcerpc endpoint servers = +winreg +srvsvc
-
-samba-tool dbcheck will now upgrade older databases that are missing
-GUIDs in the schema partition.  
-
-The 'samba-tool domain samba3upgrade' command is now called
-'samba-tool domain classicupgrade' and now creates users and groups
-with the posixAccount objectClass and uidNumber and gidNumber values.
-
-The new 'idmap_ldb:use rfc2307' parameter allows these values to be
-used instead of the idmap.ldb, where found in the directory.
-
-Work has continued to make Samba more portable to a wide variety of
-Unix-like systems, and to support --without-ad-dc on systems lacking a
-modern MIT krb5.
-
-Less visible, but very importantly, the work has continued in restructuring
-the smbd file server to implement SMB3.
-
-The TDB2 database library has been changed to ntdb, but will not be
-the default db layer for the 4.0 release.  We will continue to use tdb1.
+Samba now includes support for version 2.1 of the SMB protocol,
+the SMB2 version of Windows 7 and 2008R2, including dynamic
+reauthentication and support for multi-credit (large MTU).
+Consequently, Samba negotiates SMB 2.1 by default: The value "SMB2"
+for the configuration parameter "max protocol" has been changed to
+be an alias for SMB 2.1. Previously, the default SMB2 version of
+Samba was the original version 2.0 of SMB that was shipped with
+Windows Vista and 2008.
+
+Samba now offers basic experimental support for SMB3, the next version
+of the SMB protocol (formerly known as SMB 2.2) that will be available
+with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012. Negotiation of SMB3 can be
+activated by setting "max protocol" to "SMB3" in smb.conf.
