+Changes in version 0.17:
-'chown' and 'chmod' are now called in the right order on extracion to
-preserve the S_ISUID and S_ISGID bits of executable files.
+The new option '--mtime' has been added.
-The return value of '--delete' when failing to delete a tar member not
-individually compressed has been fixed. It returned 0, but should be 2.

-The header <sys/sysmacros.h> is now #included unconditionally.
+Multi-threaded '-d, --diff' has been implemented. See chapters 'Internal
+structure of tarlz' and 'Limitations of parallel tar decoding' in the manual
+for details.

+Tarlz now reports an error if a file name is empty (tarlz -tf foo "") or if
+the archive is specified more than once.
+
+Tarlz now reports corruption or truncation of the last header in a
+multimenber file specifically instead of showing the generic message "Last
+member in input file is truncated or corrupt."
+
+The header <sys/sysmacros.h> is now not #included when compiling on BSD.
+
+The new chapter 'Internal structure of tarlz' has been added to the manual.
