+* link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-1962[KUDU-1962]
+  Fixed a NullPointerException in the Java client in the case that the Kudu master

+* link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-1607[KUDU-1607]
+  Fixed a case in which a tablet replica on a tablet server could retain blocks
+  of data which prevented it from being fully deleted.
+
+* link:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-1933[KUDU-1933]
+  Fixed an issue in which a tablet server would crash and fail to restart after
+  a single tablet received more than two billion write operations. Upgrading to
+  Kudu 1.3.1 or later will allow a server which previously experienced this
+  issue to restart.

+  Fixed an issue in which the tablet server would delete an incorrect set of
+  data blocks after an aborted attempt to copy a tablet from another server.
+  This would produce data loss in unrelated tablets.
