+Database audit support
+----------------------
+
+Changes to the Samba AD's sam.ldb database are now logged to Samba's debug log
+under the "dsdb_audit" debug class and "dsdb_json_audit" for JSON formatted log
+entries.
+
+Transaction commits and roll backs are now logged to Samba's debug logs under
+the "dsdb_transaction_audit" debug class and "dsdb_transaction_json_audit" for
+JSON formatted log entries.
+
+Password change audit support
+-----------------------------
+
+Password changes in the AD DC are now logged to Samba's debug logs under the
+"dsdb_password_audit" debug class and "dsdb_password_json_audit" for JSON
+formatted log entries.
+
+Group membership change audit support
+-------------------------------------
+
+Group membership changes on the AD DC are now logged to
+Samba's debug log under the "dsdb_group_audit" debug class and
+"dsdb_group_json_audit" for JSON formatted log entries.
+
+Log Authentication duration
+---------------------------
+
+For NTLM and Kerberos KDC authentication, the authentication duration is now
+logged. Note that the duration is only included in the JSON formatted log
+entries.
+
+New Experimental LMDB LDB backend
+---------------------------------
+
+A new experimental LDB backend using LMBD is now available. This allows
+databases larger than 4Gb (Currently the limit is set to 6Gb, but this will be
+increased in a future release). To enable lmdb, provision or join a domain using
+the --backend-store=mdb option.
+
+This requires that a version of lmdb greater than 0.9.16 is installed and that
+samba has not been built with the --without-ldb-lmdb option.
+
+Please note this is an experimental feature and is not recommended for
+production deployments.
