+We have released Bacula Version 5.2.10 to Source Forge
+
+General:
+--------
+The 5.2.10 version is a significant bug fix release including
+our first cut of AFS support.
+
+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+Please note that with this version of Bacula, during the install
+of the shared libraries from the src/cats, src/lib, and src/findlib
+directories, any old Bacula libraries in the installation
+destination directory will be removed. This should not cause
+any problems and at least keeps the installation library cleaner.
+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+
+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+For packagers, if you change options, naming, and the way
+we link our shared object files, as at least one of you does,
+you are creating a situation where the user may not be able
+to run multiple versions of Bacula on the same machine, which
+is often very useful, and in addition, you create a configuration
+that the project cannot properly support.
+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+
+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+If you are upgrading from a version older than 5.2.9, please
+read all the old ReleaseNotes of all versions released
+after the version you are upgrading from. There area
+many important notices sumarized here, and we do not
+repeat them each bug fix release.
+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+
+Compatibility:
+--------------
+ As always, both the Director and Storage daemon must be upgraded at
+ the same time.
+
+ Older 5.0.x and 3.0.x File Daemons are compatible with the 5.2.9
+ Director and Storage daemons. There should be no need to upgrade older File
+ Daemons.
+
+Major changes since 5.2.9:
+- IPv6 networking should work correctly now
+- SQL Counter problems resolved
+- Bat hanging after running a number of jobs
+- dbcheck rw_writelock problem
