+Version 8.2.1 [v8-stable] 2014-04-17
+- permits to build against json-c 0.12
+  Unfortunately, json-c had an ABI breakage, so this is necessary. Note
+  that versions prior to 0.12 had security issues (CVE-2013-6370,
+  CVE-2013-6371) and so it is desirable to link against the new version.
+  Thanks to Thomas D. for the patch. Note that at least some distros
+  have fixed the security issue in older versions of json-c, so this
+  seems to apply mostly when building from sources.
+- doc is no longer shipped as part of the rsyslog tarball
+  Instead, the rsyslog-doc project creates its own tarball. This is the
+  result of a mailing list discussion after the 8.2.0 release with a
+  tarball-in-tarball approach, which was disliked by almost all distro
+  maintainers. This move also has the advantage of de-coupling the
+  release cycles of both projects a bit (which turned out to be a bit
+  problematic in practice).
+- bugfix: mmutf8fix did not detect two invalid sequences
+  Thanks to Axel Rau for the patch.
