The changes are as follows:

The usual mix of bugfixes and feature enhancements. There are fixes for a couple
of nasty TFTP bugs, so TFTP users should upgrade. Notable amongst the
enhancements is support for Linux conntrack. Dnsmasq can now copy conntrack
marks from incoming DNS queries to the upstream connections used to answer them.
This feature could be useful for bandwidth accounting, captive portals, and the
like. A similar feature has been implemented in Squid 2.2. There are also fixes
for large (thousands of leases) DHCP systems and DHCP via relay.

Project description:

Dnsmasq is a lightweight, easy to configure DNS
forwarder and DHCP server. It is designed to
provide DNS and (optionally) DHCP to a small
network. It can serve the names of local machines
which are not in the global DNS. The DHCP server
integrates with the DNS server and allows machines
with DHCP-allocated addresses to appear in the DNS
with names configured either in each host or in a
central configuration file. Dnsmasq supports
static and dynamic DHCP leases and BOOTP/TFTP for
network booting of diskless machines.
