+On 2009-10-21 I (Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>) cherry-picked a bunch of
+commits from the dbus4win-noncetcp branch of the dbus4win repository
+to (my clone of) dbus upstream's master branch.
+
+The dbus4win repository is at least currently at
+git://repo.or.cz/dbus4win.git
+
+I went through the commits done to the dbus4win-noncetcp branch since
+the dbus-1.2.14 tag, i.e. commit f719d454329a1a54ff2d569feaf10ceee7cead50.
+
+The following commits were left out because they either 0) were
+already upstream, 1) seemed broken, or 2) seemed pointless to me,
+especially if the commit message didn't say much. For each commit left
+out, below is three lines: its id, the first log comment line, and an
+explanation why I left it out.
