+- The server subcommand "task" has been deprecated. It still works,
+ but prints nothing. It will be removed in the next major release.

+- It is now possible to switch to a different afs database by changing
+ the server configuration and sending SIGHUP to the server process.
+- New server options: --listen--address, --http-listen-address and
+ --dccp-listen-address. These options restrict the set of listening
+ addresses of the TCP and DCCP sockets of the server process.
