* There is a new pppoatm plugin, by various authors, sent in by David
Woodhouse.
+* The multilink code has been substantially reworked. The first pppd
+ for a bundle still controls the ppp interface, but it doesn't exit
+ until all the links in the bundle have terminated. If the first
+ pppd is signalled to exit, it signals all the other pppds
+ controlling links in the bundle.
+
+* The TDB code has been updated to the latest version. This should
+ eliminate the problem that some people have seen where the database
+ file (/var/run/pppd.tdb) keeps on growing. Unfortunately, however,
+ the new code uses an incompatible database format. For this reason,
+ pppd now uses /var/run/pppd2.tdb as the database filename.
