+What's new:
+-----------
+
+- Cygwin now automatically populates the /dev directory with all
+ existing POSIX devices.
+
+- Add virtual /proc/PID/mountinfo file.
+
+- flock now additionally supports the following scenario, which requires
+ to propagate locks to the parent process:
+
+ (
+ flock -n 9 || exit 1
+ # ... commands executed under lock ...
+ } 9>/var/lock/mylockfile
+
+ Only propagation to the direct parent process is supported so far,
+ not to grand parents or sibling processes.
+
+- Add a "detect_bloda" setting for the CYGWIN environment variable to help
+ finding potential BLODAs.
