+apt (1.6~alpha8) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium
+
+ APT now verifies that the date of Release files is not in the future. By
+ default, it may be 10 seconds in the future to allow for some clock drift.
+
+ Two new configuration options can be used to tweak the behavior:
+ Acquire::Check-Date
+ Acquire::Max-DateFuture
+
+ These can be overridden in sources.list entries using the check-date
+ and date-future-max options. Note that disabling check-date also
+ disables checks on valid-until: It is considered to mean that your
+ machine's time is not reliable.
