+udev 132
+========
+
+Fix segfault if compiled without optimization and dbg() does not get
+compiled out and uses variables which are not available.
+
+udev 131
+========
+Bugfixes. (And maybe new bugs. :))
+
+The rule matching engine got converted from a rule list to a token
+array which reduced the in-memory rules representation of a full
+featured distros with thousends of udev rules from 1.2MB to 0.12 MB.
+Limits like 5 ENV and ATTR matches, and one single instance for most
+other keys per rule are gone.
+
+The NAME assignment is no longer special cased. If later rules assign
+a NAME value again, the former value will be overwritten. As usual
+for most other keys, the NAME value can be protected by doing a final
+assignment with NAME:="<value>".
+
+All udev code now uses libudev, which is also exported. The library
+is still under development, marked as experimental, and its interface
+may change as long as the DeviceKit integration is not finished.
+
+Many thanks to Alan Jenkins for his continuous help, and finding and
+optimizing some of the computing expensive parts.
+
+udev 130
+========
+Bugfixes.
+
+Kernel devices and device nodes are connected now by reverse indizes in
+/sys and /dev. A device number retrieved by a stat() or similar, the
+kernel device directory can be found by looking up:
+  /sys/dev/{block,char}/<maj>:<min>
+and the device node of the same device by looking up:
+  /dev/{block,char}/<maj>:<min>
+
+udev 129
+========
+Fix recently introduced bug, which caused a compilation without large
+file support, where vol_id does not recognize raid signatures at the end
+of a volume.
+
+Firewire disks now create both, by-id/scsi-* and by-id/ieee-* links.
+Seems some kernel versions prevent the creation of the ieee-* links,
+so people used the scsi-* link which disappeared now.
+
+More libudev work. Almost all udevadm functionality comes from libudev
+now.
+
+udevadm trigger has a new option --type, which allows to trigger events
+for "devices", for "subsystems", or "failed" devices. The old option
+--retry-failed" still works, but is no longer mentioned in the man page.
+
+udev 128
+========
+Bugfixes.
+
+The udevadm info --device-id-of-file= output has changed to use
+the obvious format. Possible current users should use the --export
+option which is not affected.
+
+The old udev commands symlinks to udevadm are not installed, if
+these symlinks are used, a warning is printed.
+
 udev 127
 ========
 Bugfixes.
 
+Optical drive's media is no longer probed for raid signatures,
+reading the end of the device causes some devices to malfunction.
+Also the offset of the last session found is used now to probe
+for the filesystem.
+
+The volume_id library got a major version number update to 1,
+some deprecated functions are removed.
+
+A shared library "libudev" gets installed now to provide access
+to udev device information. DeviceKit, the successor of HAL, will
+need this library to access the udev database and search sysfs for
+devices.
+The library is currently in an experimental state, also the API is
+expected to change, as long as the DeviceKit integration is not
+finished.
+
 udev 126
 ========
 We use ./configure now. See INSTALL for details. Current
