+What's new in Sudo 1.7.2?
+
+ * A new #includedir directive is available in sudoers. This can be
+ used to implement an /etc/sudo.d directory. Files in an includedir
+ are not edited by visudo unless they contain a syntax error.
+
+ * The -g option did not work properly when only setting the group
+ (and not the user). Also, in -l mode the wrong user was displayed
+ for sudoers entries where only the group was allowed to be set.
+
+ * Fixed a problem with the alias checking in visudo which
+ could prevent visudo from exiting.
+
+ * Sudo will now correctly parse the shell-style /etc/environment
+ file format used by pam_env on Linux.
+
+ * When doing password and group database lookups, sudo will only
+ cache an entry by name or by id, depending on how the entry was
+ looked up. Previously, sudo would cache by both name and id
+ from a single lookup, but this breaks sites that have multiple
+ password or group database names that map to the same uid or
+ gid.
+
+ * User and group names in sudoers may now be enclosed in double
+ quotes to avoid having to escape special characters.
+
+ * BSM audit fixes when changing to a non-root uid.
+
+ * Experimental non-Unix group support. Currently only works with
+ Quest Authorization Services and allows Active Directory groups
+ fixes for Minix-3.
+
+ * For Netscape/Mozilla-derived LDAP SDKs the certificate and key
+ paths may be specified as a directory or a file. However, version
+ 5.0 of the SDK only appears to support using a directory (despite
+ documentation to the contrary). If SSL client initialization
+ fails and the certificate or key paths look like they could be
+ default file name, strip off the last path element and try again.
+
+ * A setenv() compatibility fix for Linux systems, where a NULL
+ value is treated the same as an empty string and the variable
+ name is checked against the NULL pointer.
+
What's new in Sudo 1.7.1?
* A new Defaults option "pwfeedback" will cause sudo to provide visual
