I added notes about the changes I've made to 2.0.0. I put the change to
nmbd default behavior (appending to logs instead of overwriting them) into
the "Major Changes" section, but added a "Minor Changes" section for the
things that wouldn't affect the running of Samba itself (eg., the splay
tree for WINS and the change to DEBUG output).
