-Version 1.7.2-BETA:
- More compression performance improvements.
+Version 1.7.3-BETA:
+ The library now permits making in-memory changes to a WIMStruct backed
+ by a read-only WIM file.
- Fixes for setting short names on Windows.
+ Fixes for "WIMBoot" extraction mode (Windows only):
- Faster "WIMBoot" extraction on Windows.
+ When not using the WOF driver, extraction no longer fails if the
+ disk containing the WIM file has too many partitions.
- Updated dependent DLLs in Windows release. libxml2 is slimmed down.
+ When matching patterns in [PrepopulateList], all hard links of
+ each file are now considered.
+
+ The system registry files are now automatically treated as being
