+arg, puts the node name inside the `info' function call.
+
+*** New face `info-xref-visited' distinguishes visited nodes from unvisited
+and a new option `Info-fontify-visited-nodes' to control this.
+
+*** A numeric prefix argument of `info' selects an Info buffer
+with the number appended to the `*info*' buffer name (e.g. "*info*<2>").
+
+*** Info now hides node names in menus and cross references by default.
+
+If you prefer the old behavior, you can set the new user option
+`Info-hide-note-references' to nil.
+
+*** The default value for `Info-scroll-prefer-subnodes' is now nil.
+
+** Emacs server changes

+*** You can have several Emacs servers on the same machine.

+       % emacs --eval '(setq server-name "bar")' -f server-start &
+       % emacsclient -s foo file1
+       % emacsclient -s bar file2
+
+*** The `emacsclient' command understands the options `--eval' and
+`--display' which tell Emacs respectively to evaluate the given Lisp
+expression and to use the given display when visiting files.
+
+*** User option `server-mode' can be used to start a server process.
+
+** Locate changes
+
+*** By default, reverting the *Locate* buffer now just runs the last
+`locate' command back over again without offering to update the locate
+database (which normally only works if you have root privileges).  If
+you prefer the old behavior, set the new customizable option
+`locate-update-when-revert' to t.
+
+** Desktop package
+
+*** Desktop saving is now a minor mode, `desktop-save-mode'.
+
+*** The variable `desktop-enable' is obsolete.
+
+Customize `desktop-save-mode' to enable desktop saving.
+
+*** Buffers are saved in the desktop file in the same order as that in the
+buffer list.
+
+*** The desktop package can be customized to restore only some buffers
+immediately, remaining buffers are restored lazily (when Emacs is
+idle).
+
+*** New command line option --no-desktop
+
+*** New commands:
+  - desktop-revert reverts to the last loaded desktop.
+  - desktop-change-dir kills current desktop and loads a new.
+  - desktop-save-in-desktop-dir saves desktop in the directory from which
+    it was loaded.
+  - desktop-lazy-complete runs the desktop load to completion.
+  - desktop-lazy-abort aborts lazy loading of the desktop.
+
+*** New customizable variables:
+  - desktop-save. Determines whether the desktop should be saved when it is
+    killed.
+  - desktop-file-name-format. Format in which desktop file names should be 
saved.
+  - desktop-path. List of directories in which to lookup the desktop file.
+  - desktop-locals-to-save. List of local variables to save.
+  - desktop-globals-to-clear. List of global variables that `desktop-clear' 
will clear.
+  - desktop-clear-preserve-buffers-regexp. Regexp identifying buffers that 
`desktop-clear'
+    should not delete.
+  - desktop-restore-eager. Number of buffers to restore immediately. Remaining 
buffers are
+    restored lazily (when Emacs is idle).
+  - desktop-lazy-verbose. Verbose reporting of lazily created buffers.
+  - desktop-lazy-idle-delay. Idle delay before starting to create buffers.
+
+*** New hooks:
+  - desktop-after-read-hook run after a desktop is loaded.
+  - desktop-no-desktop-file-hook run when no desktop file is found.
+
+** Recentf changes
+
+The recent file list is now automatically cleaned up when recentf mode is
+enabled.  The new option `recentf-auto-cleanup' controls when to do
+automatic cleanup.
+
+The ten most recent files can be quickly opened by using the shortcut
+keys 1 to 9, and 0, when the recent list is displayed in a buffer via
+the `recentf-open-files', or `recentf-open-more-files' commands.
+
+The `recentf-keep' option replaces `recentf-keep-non-readable-files-p'
+and provides a more general mechanism to customize which file names to
+keep in the recent list.
+
+With the more advanced option `recentf-filename-handlers', you can
+specify functions that successively transform recent file names.  For
+example, if set to `file-truename' plus `abbreviate-file-name', the
+same file will not be in the recent list with different symbolic
+links, and the file name will be abbreviated.
+
+To follow naming convention, `recentf-menu-append-commands-flag'
+replaces the misnamed option `recentf-menu-append-commands-p'.  The
+old name remains available as alias, but has been marked obsolete.
+
+** Auto-Revert changes
+
+*** You can now use Auto Revert mode to `tail' a file.
+
+If point is at the end of a file buffer before reverting, Auto Revert
+mode keeps it at the end after reverting.  Similarly if point is
+displayed at the end of a file buffer in any window, it stays at
+the end of the buffer in that window.  This allows to tail a file:
+just put point at the end of the buffer and it stays there.  This
+rule applies to file buffers.  For non-file buffers, the behavior can
+be mode dependent.
+
+If you are sure that the file will only change by growing at the end,
+then you can tail the file more efficiently by using the new minor
+mode Auto Revert Tail mode.  The function `auto-revert-tail-mode'
+toggles this mode.
+
+*** Auto Revert mode is now more careful to avoid excessive reverts and
+other potential problems when deciding which non-file buffers to
+revert.  This matters especially if Global Auto Revert mode is enabled
+and `global-auto-revert-non-file-buffers' is non-nil.  Auto Revert
+mode only reverts a non-file buffer if the buffer has a non-nil
+`revert-buffer-function' and a non-nil `buffer-stale-function', which
+decides whether the buffer should be reverted.  Currently, this means
+that auto reverting works for Dired buffers (although this may not
+work properly on all operating systems) and for the Buffer Menu.
+
+*** If the new user option `auto-revert-check-vc-info' is non-nil, Auto
+Revert mode reliably updates version control info (such as the version
+control number in the mode line), in all version controlled buffers in
+which it is active.  If the option is nil, the default, then this info
+only gets updated whenever the buffer gets reverted.

+
+*** In skeleton.el, `-' marks the `skeleton-point' without interregion 
interaction.
+
+`@' has reverted to only setting `skeleton-positions' and no longer
+sets `skeleton-point'.  Skeletons which used @ to mark
+`skeleton-point' independent of `_' should now use `-' instead.  The
+updated `skeleton-insert' docstring explains these new features along
+with other details of skeleton construction.
+
+*** The variables `skeleton-transformation', `skeleton-filter', and
+`skeleton-pair-filter' have been renamed to
+`skeleton-transformation-function', `skeleton-filter-function', and
+`skeleton-pair-filter-function'.  The old names are still available
+as aliases.

+
+*** SGML mode has indentation and supports XML syntax.
+The new variable `sgml-xml-mode' tells SGML mode to use XML syntax.
+When this option is enabled, SGML tags are inserted in XML style,
+i.e., there is always a closing tag.
+By default, its setting is inferred on a buffer-by-buffer basis
+from the file name or buffer contents.
+
+*** The variable `sgml-transformation' has been renamed to
+`sgml-transformation-function'.  The old name is still available as
+alias.
+
+*** `xml-mode' is now an alias for `sgml-mode', which has XML support.

+command-line options to feed to TeX, and `tex-start-commands' which should hold
+TeX commands to use at startup.

+** RefTeX mode changes
+
+*** Changes to RefTeX's table of contents
+
+The new command keys "<" and ">" in the TOC buffer promote/demote the
+section at point or all sections in the current region, with full
+support for multifile documents.
+
+The new command `reftex-toc-recenter' (`C-c -') shows the current
+section in the TOC buffer without selecting the TOC window.
+Recentering can happen automatically in idle time when the option
+`reftex-auto-recenter-toc' is turned on.  The highlight in the TOC
+buffer stays when the focus moves to a different window.  A dedicated
+frame can show the TOC with the current section always automatically
+highlighted.  The frame is created and deleted from the toc buffer
+with the `d' key.
+
+The toc window can be split off horizontally instead of vertically.
+See new option `reftex-toc-split-windows-horizontally'.
+
+Labels can be renamed globally from the table of contents using the
+key `M-%'.
+
+The new command `reftex-goto-label' jumps directly to a label
+location.
+
+*** Changes related to citations and BibTeX database files
+
+Commands that insert a citation now prompt for optional arguments when
+called with a prefix argument.  Related new options are
+`reftex-cite-prompt-optional-args' and `reftex-cite-cleanup-optional-args'.
+
+The new command `reftex-create-bibtex-file' creates a BibTeX database
+with all entries referenced in the current document.  The keys "e" and
+"E" allow to produce a BibTeX database file from entries marked in a
+citation selection buffer.
+
+The command `reftex-citation' uses the word in the buffer before the
+cursor as a default search string.
+
+The support for chapterbib has been improved.  Different chapters can
+now use BibTeX or an explicit `thebibliography' environment.
+
+The macros which specify the bibliography file (like \bibliography)
+can be configured with the new option `reftex-bibliography-commands'.
+
+Support for jurabib has been added.
+
+*** Global index matched may be verified with a user function.
+
+During global indexing, a user function can verify an index match.
+See new option `reftex-index-verify-function'.
+
+*** Parsing documents with many labels can be sped up.
 
-** Changes in Makefile mode
+Operating in a document with thousands of labels can be sped up
+considerably by allowing RefTeX to derive the type of a label directly
+from the label prefix like `eq:' or `fig:'.  The option
+`reftex-trust-label-prefix' needs to be configured in order to enable
+this feature.  While the speed-up is significant, this may reduce the
+quality of the context offered by RefTeX to describe a label.
 
-*** Makefile mode has submodes for automake, gmake, makepp, BSD make and imake.
+*** Miscellaneous changes
 
-The former two couldn't be differentiated before, and the latter three
-are new.  Font-locking is robust now and offers new customizable
-faces.
+The macros which input a file in LaTeX (like \input, \include) can be
+configured in the new option `reftex-include-file-commands'.
 
-*** The variable `makefile-query-one-target-method' has been renamed
-to `makefile-query-one-target-method-function'.  The old name is still
-available as alias.
+RefTeX supports global incremental search.
 
-** In Outline mode, `hide-body' no longer hides lines at the top
-of the file that precede the first header line.

-** Telnet now prompts you for a port number with C-u M-x telnet.
+*** The new command `bibtex-url' browses a URL for the BibTeX entry at
+point (bound to C-c C-l and mouse-2, RET on clickable fields).
 
-** The terminal emulation code in term.el has been improved; it can
-run most curses applications now.
+*** The new command `bibtex-entry-update' (bound to C-c C-u) updates
+an existing BibTeX entry by inserting fields that may occur but are not
+present.
 
-** M-x diff uses Diff mode instead of Compilation mode.
+*** New `bibtex-entry-format' option `required-fields', enabled by default.
 
-** Diff mode key bindings changed.
+*** `bibtex-maintain-sorted-entries' can take values `plain',
+`crossref', and `entry-class' which control the sorting scheme used
+for BibTeX entries.  `bibtex-sort-entry-class' controls the sorting
+scheme `entry-class'.  TAB completion for reference keys and
+automatic detection of duplicates does not require anymore that
+`bibtex-maintain-sorted-entries' is non-nil.
 
-These are the new bindings:
+*** The new command `bibtex-complete' completes word fragment before
+point according to context (bound to M-tab).
 
-C-c C-e   diff-ediff-patch  (old M-A)
-C-c C-n   diff-restrict-view   (old M-r)
-C-c C-r   diff-reverse-direction  (old M-R)
-C-c C-u   diff-context->unified   (old M-U)
-C-c C-w   diff-refine-hunk  (old C-c C-r)
+*** In BibTeX mode the command `fill-paragraph' (M-q) fills
+individual fields of a BibTeX entry.
 
-To convert unified to context format, use C-u C-c C-u.
-In addition, C-c C-u now operates on the region
-in Transient Mark mode when the mark is active.
+*** The new variable `bibtex-autofill-types' contains a list of entry
+types for which fields are filled automatically (if possible).
 
-** You can now customize `fill-nobreak-predicate' to control where
-filling can break lines.  The value is now normally a list of
-functions, but it can also be a single function, for compatibility.
+*** The new commands `bibtex-find-entry' and `bibtex-find-crossref'
+locate entries and crossref'd entries (bound to C-c C-s and C-c C-x).
+Crossref fields are clickable (bound to mouse-2, RET).
 
-Emacs provide two predicates, `fill-single-word-nobreak-p' and
-`fill-french-nobreak-p', for use as the value of
-`fill-nobreak-predicate'.
+*** The new variables `bibtex-files' and `bibtex-file-path' define a set
+of BibTeX files that are searched for entry keys.
 
-** M-x view-file and commands that use it now avoid interfering
-with special modes such as Tar mode.
+*** The new command `bibtex-validate-globally' checks for duplicate keys
+in multiple BibTeX files.
 
-** Commands `winner-redo' and `winner-undo', from winner.el, are now
-bound to C-c <left> and C-c <right>, respectively.  This is an
-incompatible change.
+*** If the new variable `bibtex-autoadd-commas' is non-nil,
+automatically add missing commas at end of BibTeX fields.
 
-** `global-whitespace-mode' is a new alias for `whitespace-global-mode'.
+*** The new command `bibtex-copy-summary-as-kill' pushes summary
+of BibTeX entry to kill ring (bound to C-c C-t).
 
-** M-x compare-windows now can automatically skip non-matching text to
-resync points in both windows.
+*** If the new variable `bibtex-parse-keys-fast' is non-nil,
+use fast but simplified algorithm for parsing BibTeX keys.
 
-** New user option `add-log-always-start-new-record'.
+*** The new variables bibtex-expand-strings and
+bibtex-autokey-expand-strings control the expansion of strings when
+extracting the content of a BibTeX field.
 
-When this option is enabled, M-x add-change-log-entry always
-starts a new record regardless of when the last record is.
+*** The variables `bibtex-autokey-name-case-convert' and
+`bibtex-autokey-titleword-case-convert' have been renamed to
+`bibtex-autokey-name-case-convert-function' and
+`bibtex-autokey-titleword-case-convert-function'.  The old names are
+still available as aliases.
 
-** PO translation files are decoded according to their MIME headers
-when Emacs visits them.
+** GUD changes
 
-** Info mode changes:
+*** The new package gdb-ui.el provides an enhanced graphical interface to
+GDB.  You can interact with GDB through the GUD buffer in the usual way, but
+there are also further buffers which control the execution and describe the
+state of your program.  It can separate the input/output of your program from
+that of GDB and watches expressions in the speedbar.  It also uses features of
+Emacs 21/22 such as the toolbar, and bitmaps in the fringe to indicate
+breakpoints.
 
-*** A numeric prefix argument of `info' selects an Info buffer
-with the number appended to the `*info*' buffer name (e.g. "*info*<2>").
+To use this package just type M-x gdb.  See the Emacs manual if you want the
+old behaviour.
 
-*** isearch in Info uses Info-search and searches through multiple nodes.
+*** GUD mode has its own tool bar for controlling execution of the inferior
+and other common debugger commands.
 
-Before leaving the initial Info node isearch fails once with the error
-message [initial node], and with subsequent C-s/C-r continues through
-other nodes.  When isearch fails for the rest of the manual, it wraps
-around the whole manual to the top/final node.  The user option
-`Info-isearch-search' controls whether to use Info-search for isearch,
-or the default isearch search function that wraps around the current
-Info node.
+*** In GUD mode, when talking to GDB, C-x C-a C-j "jumps" the program
+counter to the specified source line (the one where point is).
 
-*** New search commands: `Info-search-case-sensitively' (bound to S),
-`Info-search-backward', and `Info-search-next' which repeats the last
-search without prompting for a new search string.
+*** The variable tooltip-gud-tips-p has been removed.  GUD tooltips can now be
+toggled independently of normal tooltips with the minor mode
+`gud-tooltip-mode'.
 
-*** New command `Info-history-forward' (bound to r and new toolbar icon)
-moves forward in history to the node you returned from after using
-`Info-history-back' (renamed from `Info-last').
+*** In graphical mode, with a C program, GUD Tooltips have been extended to
+display the #define directive associated with an identifier when program is
+not executing.
 
-*** New command `Info-history' (bound to L) displays a menu of visited nodes.
+*** GUD mode improvements for jdb:
 
-*** New command `Info-toc' (bound to T) creates a node with table of contents
-from the tree structure of menus of the current Info file.
+**** Search for source files using jdb classpath and class information.
+Fast startup since there is no need to scan all source files up front.
+There is also no need to create and maintain lists of source
+directories to scan.  Look at `gud-jdb-use-classpath' and
+`gud-jdb-classpath' customization variables documentation.
 
-*** New command `info-apropos' searches the indices of the known
-Info files on your system for a string, and builds a menu of the
-possible matches.
+**** The previous method of searching for source files has been
+preserved in case someone still wants/needs to use it.
+Set `gud-jdb-use-classpath' to nil.
 
-*** New command `Info-copy-current-node-name' (bound to w) copies
-the current Info node name into the kill ring.  With a zero prefix
-arg, puts the node name inside the `info' function call.
+**** Supports the standard breakpoint (gud-break, gud-clear)
+set/clear operations from Java source files under the classpath, stack
+traversal (gud-up, gud-down), and run until current stack finish
+(gud-finish).
 
-*** New face `info-xref-visited' distinguishes visited nodes from unvisited
-and a new option `Info-fontify-visited-nodes' to control this.
+**** Supports new jdb (Java 1.2 and later) in addition to oldjdb
+(Java 1.1 jdb).
 
-*** http and ftp links in Info are now operational: they look like cross
-references and following them calls `browse-url'.
+*** Added jdb Customization Variables
 
-*** Info now hides node names in menus and cross references by default.
+**** `gud-jdb-command-name'.  What command line to use to invoke jdb.
 
-If you prefer the old behavior, you can set the new user option
-`Info-hide-note-references' to nil.
+**** `gud-jdb-use-classpath'.  Allows selection of java source file searching
+method: set to t for new method, nil to scan `gud-jdb-directories' for
+java sources (previous method).
 
-*** Images in Info pages are supported.
+**** `gud-jdb-directories'.  List of directories to scan and search for Java
+classes using the original gud-jdb method (if `gud-jdb-use-classpath'
+is nil).
 
-Info pages show embedded images, in Emacs frames with image support.
-Info documentation that includes images, processed with makeinfo
-version 4.7 or newer, compiles to Info pages with embedded images.
+*** Minor Improvements
 
-*** The default value for `Info-scroll-prefer-subnodes' is now nil.
+**** The STARTTLS wrapper (starttls.el) can now use GNUTLS
+instead of the OpenSSL based `starttls' tool.  For backwards
+compatibility, it prefers `starttls', but you can toggle
+`starttls-use-gnutls' to switch to GNUTLS (or simply remove the
+`starttls' tool).
 
-*** `Info-index' offers completion.
+**** Do not allow debugger output history variable to grow without bounds.

-** Reftex mode changes
-
-*** Changes to RefTeX's table of contents
-
-The new command keys "<" and ">" in the TOC buffer promote/demote the
-section at point or all sections in the current region, with full
-support for multifile documents.
-
-The new command `reftex-toc-recenter' (`C-c -') shows the current
-section in the TOC buffer without selecting the TOC window.
-Recentering can happen automatically in idle time when the option
-`reftex-auto-recenter-toc' is turned on.  The highlight in the TOC
-buffer stays when the focus moves to a different window.  A dedicated
-frame can show the TOC with the current section always automatically
-highlighted.  The frame is created and deleted from the toc buffer
-with the `d' key.
-
-The toc window can be split off horizontally instead of vertically.
-See new option `reftex-toc-split-windows-horizontally'.
-
-Labels can be renamed globally from the table of contents using the
-key `M-%'.
-
-The new command `reftex-goto-label' jumps directly to a label
-location.
-
-*** Changes related to citations and BibTeX database files
-
-Commands that insert a citation now prompt for optional arguments when
-called with a prefix argument.  Related new options are
-`reftex-cite-prompt-optional-args' and `reftex-cite-cleanup-optional-args'.
-
-The new command `reftex-create-bibtex-file' creates a BibTeX database
-with all entries referenced in the current document.  The keys "e" and
-"E" allow to produce a BibTeX database file from entries marked in a
-citation selection buffer.
-
-The command `reftex-citation' uses the word in the buffer before the
-cursor as a default search string.
-
-The support for chapterbib has been improved.  Different chapters can
-now use BibTeX or an explicit `thebibliography' environment.
-
-The macros which specify the bibliography file (like \bibliography)
-can be configured with the new option `reftex-bibliography-commands'.
-
-Support for jurabib has been added.
-
-*** Global index matched may be verified with a user function
-
-During global indexing, a user function can verify an index match.
-See new option `reftex-index-verify-function'.
-
-*** Parsing documents with many labels can be sped up.
-
-Operating in a document with thousands of labels can be sped up
-considerably by allowing RefTeX to derive the type of a label directly
-from the label prefix like `eq:' or `fig:'.  The option
-`reftex-trust-label-prefix' needs to be configured in order to enable
-this feature.  While the speed-up is significant, this may reduce the
-quality of the context offered by RefTeX to describe a label.
-
-*** Miscellaneous changes
-
-The macros which input a file in LaTeX (like \input, \include) can be
-configured in the new option `reftex-include-file-commands'.
-
-RefTeX supports global incremental search.

-
-** HTML/SGML changes:
-
-*** Emacs now tries to set up buffer coding systems for HTML/XML files
-automatically.
-
-*** SGML mode has indentation and supports XML syntax.
-The new variable `sgml-xml-mode' tells SGML mode to use XML syntax.
-When this option is enabled, SGML tags are inserted in XML style,
-i.e., there is always a closing tag.
-By default, its setting is inferred on a buffer-by-buffer basis
-from the file name or buffer contents.
-
-*** The variable `sgml-transformation' has been renamed to
-`sgml-transformation-function'.  The old name is still available as
-alias.
-
-*** `xml-mode' is now an alias for `sgml-mode', which has XML support.
-
-** TeX modes:
-
-*** C-c C-c prompts for a command to run, and tries to offer a good default.
-
-*** The user option `tex-start-options-string' has been replaced
-by two new user options: `tex-start-options', which should hold
-command-line options to feed to TeX, and `tex-start-commands' which should hold
-TeX commands to use at startup.
-
-*** verbatim environments are now highlighted in courier by font-lock
-and super/sub-scripts are made into super/sub-scripts.
-
-*** New major mode Doctex mode, for *.dtx files.

-** BibTeX mode:
-
-*** The new command `bibtex-url' browses a URL for the BibTeX entry at
-point (bound to C-c C-l and mouse-2, RET on clickable fields).
-
-*** The new command `bibtex-entry-update' (bound to C-c C-u) updates
-an existing BibTeX entry by inserting fields that may occur but are not
-present.
-
-*** New `bibtex-entry-format' option `required-fields', enabled by default.
-
-*** `bibtex-maintain-sorted-entries' can take values `plain',
-`crossref', and `entry-class' which control the sorting scheme used
-for BibTeX entries.  `bibtex-sort-entry-class' controls the sorting
-scheme `entry-class'.  TAB completion for reference keys and
-automatic detection of duplicates does not require anymore that
-`bibtex-maintain-sorted-entries' is non-nil.
-
-*** If the new variable `bibtex-parse-keys-fast' is non-nil,
-use fast but simplified algorithm for parsing BibTeX keys.
-
-*** If the new variable `bibtex-autoadd-commas' is non-nil,
-automatically add missing commas at end of BibTeX fields.
-
-*** The new variable `bibtex-autofill-types' contains a list of entry
-types for which fields are filled automatically (if possible).
-
-*** The new command `bibtex-complete' completes word fragment before
-point according to context (bound to M-tab).
+** Changes in Makefile mode
 
-*** The new commands `bibtex-find-entry' and `bibtex-find-crossref'
-locate entries and crossref'd entries (bound to C-c C-s and C-c C-x).
-Crossref fields are clickable (bound to mouse-2, RET).
+*** Makefile mode has submodes for automake, gmake, makepp, BSD make and imake.
 
-*** In BibTeX mode the command `fill-paragraph' (M-q) fills
-individual fields of a BibTeX entry.
+The former two couldn't be differentiated before, and the latter three
+are new.  Font-locking is robust now and offers new customizable
+faces.
 
-*** The new variables `bibtex-files' and `bibtex-file-path' define a set
-of BibTeX files that are searched for entry keys.
+*** The variable `makefile-query-one-target-method' has been renamed
+to `makefile-query-one-target-method-function'.  The old name is still
+available as alias.
 
-*** The new command `bibtex-validate-globally' checks for duplicate keys
-in multiple BibTeX files.
+** Sql changes
 
-*** The new command `bibtex-copy-summary-as-kill' pushes summary
-of BibTeX entry to kill ring (bound to C-c C-t).
+*** The variable `sql-product' controls the highlighting of different
+SQL dialects.  This variable can be set globally via Customize, on a
+buffer-specific basis via local variable settings, or for the current
+session using the new SQL->Product submenu.  (This menu replaces the
+SQL->Highlighting submenu.)
 
-*** The new variables bibtex-expand-strings and
-bibtex-autokey-expand-strings control the expansion of strings when
-extracting the content of a BibTeX field.
+The following values are supported:
 
-*** The variables `bibtex-autokey-name-case-convert' and
-`bibtex-autokey-titleword-case-convert' have been renamed to
-`bibtex-autokey-name-case-convert-function' and
-`bibtex-autokey-titleword-case-convert-function'.  The old names are
-still available as aliases.

+The current product name will be shown on the mode line following the
+SQL mode indicator.
 
-** In Enriched mode, `set-left-margin' and `set-right-margin' are now
-by default bound to `C-c [' and `C-c ]' instead of the former `C-c C-l'
-and `C-c C-r'.
+The technique of setting `sql-mode-font-lock-defaults' directly in
+your `.emacs' will no longer establish the default highlighting -- Use
+`sql-product' to accomplish this.
 
-** GUD changes:
+ANSI keywords are always highlighted.
 
-*** In GUD mode, when talking to GDB, C-x C-a C-j "jumps" the program
-counter to the specified source line (the one where point is).
+*** The function `sql-add-product-keywords' can be used to add
+font-lock rules to the product specific rules.  For example, to have
+all identifiers ending in `_t' under MS SQLServer treated as a type,
+you would use the following line in your .emacs file:
 
-*** GUD mode has its own tool bar for controlling execution of the inferior
-and other common debugger commands.
+  (sql-add-product-keywords 'ms
+             '(("\\<\\w+_t\\>" . font-lock-type-face)))
 
-*** The new package gdb-ui.el provides an enhanced graphical interface to
-GDB.  You can interact with GDB through the GUD buffer in the usual way, but
-there are also further buffers which control the execution and describe the
-state of your program.  It can separate the input/output of your program from
-that of GDB and watches expressions in the speedbar.  It also uses features of
-Emacs 21/22 such as the toolbar, and bitmaps in the fringe to indicate
-breakpoints.
+*** Oracle support includes keyword highlighting for Oracle 9i.
 
-To use this package just type M-x gdb.  See the Emacs manual if you want the
-old behaviour.
+Most SQL and PL/SQL keywords are implemented.  SQL*Plus commands are
+highlighted in `font-lock-doc-face'.
 
-*** The variable tooltip-gud-tips-p has been removed.  GUD tooltips can now be
-toggled independently of normal tooltips with the minor mode
-`gud-tooltip-mode'.
+*** Microsoft SQLServer support has been significantly improved.
 
-*** In graphical mode, with a C program, GUD Tooltips have been extended to
-display the #define directive associated with an identifier when program is
-not executing.
+Keyword highlighting for SqlServer 2000 is implemented.
+sql-interactive-mode defaults to use osql, rather than isql, because
+osql flushes its error stream more frequently.  Thus error messages
+are displayed when they occur rather than when the session is
+terminated.
 
-** GUD mode improvements for jdb:
+If the username and password are not provided to `sql-ms', osql is
+called with the `-E' command line argument to use the operating system
+credentials to authenticate the user.
 
-*** Search for source files using jdb classpath and class information.
-Fast startup since there is no need to scan all source files up front.
-There is also no need to create and maintain lists of source
-directories to scan.  Look at `gud-jdb-use-classpath' and
-`gud-jdb-classpath' customization variables documentation.
+*** Postgres support is enhanced.
+Keyword highlighting of Postgres 7.3 is implemented.  Prompting for
+the username and the pgsql `-U' option is added.
 
-*** Supports the standard breakpoint (gud-break, gud-clear)
-set/clear operations from Java source files under the classpath, stack
-traversal (gud-up, gud-down), and run until current stack finish
-(gud-finish).
+*** MySQL support is enhanced.
+Keyword highlighting of MySql 4.0 is implemented.
 
-*** Supports new jdb (Java 1.2 and later) in addition to oldjdb
-(Java 1.1 jdb).
+*** Imenu support has been enhanced to locate tables, views, indexes,
+packages, procedures, functions, triggers, sequences, rules, and
+defaults.
 
-*** The previous method of searching for source files has been
-preserved in case someone still wants/needs to use it.
-Set `gud-jdb-use-classpath' to nil.
+*** Added SQL->Start SQLi Session menu entry which calls the
+appropriate `sql-interactive-mode' wrapper for the current setting of
+`sql-product'.
 
-*** Added Customization Variables
+*** sql.el supports the SQLite interpreter--call 'sql-sqlite'.
 
-**** `gud-jdb-command-name'.   What command line to use to invoke jdb.
+** Fortran mode changes
 
-**** `gud-jdb-use-classpath'.  Allows selection of java source file searching
-method: set to t for new method, nil to scan `gud-jdb-directories' for
-java sources (previous method).
+*** F90 mode and Fortran mode have support for `hs-minor-mode' (hideshow).
+It cannot deal with every code format, but ought to handle a sizeable
+majority.
 
-**** `gud-jdb-directories'.  List of directories to scan and search for Java
-classes using the original gud-jdb method (if `gud-jdb-use-classpath'
-is nil).
+*** F90 mode and Fortran mode have new navigation commands
+`f90-end-of-block', `f90-beginning-of-block', `f90-next-block',
+`f90-previous-block', `fortran-end-of-block',
+`fortran-beginning-of-block'.
 
-*** Minor Improvements
+*** Fortran mode does more font-locking by default.  Use level 3
+highlighting for the old default.
 
-**** The STARTTLS wrapper (starttls.el) can now use GNUTLS
-instead of the OpenSSL based `starttls' tool.  For backwards
-compatibility, it prefers `starttls', but you can toggle
-`starttls-use-gnutls' to switch to GNUTLS (or simply remove the
-`starttls' tool).
+*** Fortran mode has a new variable `fortran-directive-re'.
+Adapt this to match the format of any compiler directives you use.
+Lines that match are never indented, and are given distinctive font-locking.
 
-**** Do not allow debugger output history variable to grow without bounds.
+*** The new function `f90-backslash-not-special' can be used to change
+the syntax of backslashes in F90 buffers.
 
-** Auto-Revert changes:
+** Miscellaneous programming mode changes
 
-*** You can now use Auto Revert mode to `tail' a file.
+*** In sh-script, a continuation line is only indented if the backslash was
+preceded by a SPC or a TAB.
 
-If point is at the end of a file buffer before reverting, Auto Revert
-mode keeps it at the end after reverting.  Similarly if point is
-displayed at the end of a file buffer in any window, it stays at
-the end of the buffer in that window.  This allows to tail a file:
-just put point at the end of the buffer and it stays there.  This
-rule applies to file buffers.  For non-file buffers, the behavior can
-be mode dependent.
+*** Perl mode has a new variable `perl-indent-continued-arguments'.
 
-If you are sure that the file will only change by growing at the end,
-then you can tail the file more efficiently by using the new minor
-mode Auto Revert Tail mode.  The function `auto-revert-tail-mode'
-toggles this mode.
+*** The old Octave mode bindings C-c f and C-c i have been changed
+to C-c C-f and C-c C-i.  The C-c C-i subcommands now have duplicate
+bindings on control characters--thus, C-c C-i C-b is the same as
+C-c C-i b, and so on.
 
-*** Auto Revert mode is now more careful to avoid excessive reverts and
-other potential problems when deciding which non-file buffers to
-revert.  This matters especially if Global Auto Revert mode is enabled
-and `global-auto-revert-non-file-buffers' is non-nil.  Auto Revert
-mode only reverts a non-file buffer if the buffer has a non-nil
-`revert-buffer-function' and a non-nil `buffer-stale-function', which
-decides whether the buffer should be reverted.  Currently, this means
-that auto reverting works for Dired buffers (although this may not
-work properly on all operating systems) and for the Buffer Menu.
+*** Prolog mode has a new variable `prolog-font-lock-keywords'
+to support use of font-lock.
 
-*** If the new user option `auto-revert-check-vc-info' is non-nil, Auto
-Revert mode reliably updates version control info (such as the version
-control number in the mode line), in all version controlled buffers in
-which it is active.  If the option is nil, the default, then this info
-only gets updated whenever the buffer gets reverted.
+** VC Changes
 
-** recentf changes.
+*** New backends for Subversion and Meta-CVS.
 
-The recent file list is now automatically cleaned up when recentf mode is
-enabled.  The new option `recentf-auto-cleanup' controls when to do
-automatic cleanup.
+*** The new variable `vc-cvs-global-switches' specifies switches that
+are passed to any CVS command invoked by VC.
 
-The ten most recent files can be quickly opened by using the shortcut
-keys 1 to 9, and 0, when the recent list is displayed in a buffer via
-the `recentf-open-files', or `recentf-open-more-files' commands.
+These switches are used as "global options" for CVS, which means they
+are inserted before the command name.  For example, this allows you to
+specify a compression level using the `-z#' option for CVS.
 
-The `recentf-keep' option replaces `recentf-keep-non-readable-files-p'
-and provides a more general mechanism to customize which file names to
-keep in the recent list.
+*** The key C-x C-q only changes the read-only state of the buffer
+(toggle-read-only).  It no longer checks files in or out.
 
-With the more advanced option `recentf-filename-handlers', you can
-specify functions that successively transform recent file names.  For
-example, if set to `file-truename' plus `abbreviate-file-name', the
-same file will not be in the recent list with different symbolic
-links, and the file name will be abbreviated.
+We made this change because we held a poll and found that many users
+were unhappy with the previous behavior.  If you do prefer this
+behavior, you can bind `vc-toggle-read-only' to C-x C-q in your
+`.emacs' file:
 
-To follow naming convention, `recentf-menu-append-commands-flag'
-replaces the misnamed option `recentf-menu-append-commands-p'.  The
-old name remains available as alias, but has been marked obsolete.
+    (global-set-key "\C-x\C-q" 'vc-toggle-read-only)
 
-** Desktop package
+The function `vc-toggle-read-only' will continue to exist.
 
-*** Desktop saving is now a minor mode, `desktop-save-mode'.
+*** VC-Annotate mode enhancements
 
-*** The variable `desktop-enable' is obsolete.
+In VC-Annotate mode, you can now use the following key bindings for
+enhanced functionality to browse the annotations of past revisions, or
+to view diffs or log entries directly from vc-annotate-mode:
 
-Customize `desktop-save-mode' to enable desktop saving.
+    P:  annotates the previous revision
+    N:  annotates the next revision
+    J:  annotates the revision at line
+    A:  annotates the revision previous to line
+    D:  shows the diff of the revision at line with its previous revision
+    L:  shows the log of the revision at line
+    W:  annotates the workfile (most up to date) version
 
-*** Buffers are saved in the desktop file in the same order as that in the
-buffer list.
+** pcl-cvs changes
 
-*** The desktop package can be customized to restore only some buffers
-immediately, remaining buffers are restored lazily (when Emacs is
-idle).
+*** In pcl-cvs mode, there is a new `d y' command to view the diffs
+between the local version of the file and yesterday's head revision
+in the repository.
 
-*** New commands:
-  - desktop-revert reverts to the last loaded desktop.
-  - desktop-change-dir kills current desktop and loads a new.
-  - desktop-save-in-desktop-dir saves desktop in the directory from which
-    it was loaded.
-  - desktop-lazy-complete runs the desktop load to completion.
-  - desktop-lazy-abort aborts lazy loading of the desktop.
+*** In pcl-cvs mode, there is a new `d r' command to view the changes
+anyone has committed to the repository since you last executed
+`checkout', `update' or `commit'.  That means using cvs diff options
+-rBASE -rHEAD.
 
-*** New customizable variables:
-  - desktop-save. Determines whether the desktop should be saved when it is
-    killed.
-  - desktop-file-name-format. Format in which desktop file names should be 
saved.
-  - desktop-path. List of directories in which to lookup the desktop file.
-  - desktop-locals-to-save. List of local variables to save.
-  - desktop-globals-to-clear. List of global variables that `desktop-clear' 
will clear.
-  - desktop-clear-preserve-buffers-regexp. Regexp identifying buffers that 
`desktop-clear'
-    should not delete.
-  - desktop-restore-eager. Number of buffers to restore immediately. Remaining 
buffers are
-    restored lazily (when Emacs is idle).
-  - desktop-lazy-verbose. Verbose reporting of lazily created buffers.
-  - desktop-lazy-idle-delay. Idle delay before starting to create buffers.
+** Diff changes
 
-*** New command line option --no-desktop
+*** M-x diff uses Diff mode instead of Compilation mode.
 
-*** New hooks:
-  - desktop-after-read-hook run after a desktop is loaded.
-  - desktop-no-desktop-file-hook run when no desktop file is found.
+*** Diff mode key bindings changed.
 
-** The saveplace.el package now filters out unreadable files.
+These are the new bindings:
 
-When you exit Emacs, the saved positions in visited files no longer
-include files that aren't readable, e.g. files that don't exist.
-Customize the new option `save-place-forget-unreadable-files' to nil
-to get the old behavior.  The new options `save-place-save-skipped'
-and `save-place-skip-check-regexp' allow further fine-tuning of this
-feature.

-** Changes in Skeleton
+** Miscellaneous
 
-*** In skeleton.el, `-' marks the `skeleton-point' without interregion 
interaction.
+*** The variable `woman-topic-at-point' is renamed
+to `woman-use-topic-at-point' and behaves differently: if this
+variable is non-nil, the `woman' command uses the word at point
+automatically, without asking for a confirmation.  Otherwise, the word
+at point is suggested as default, but not inserted at the prompt.
 
-`@' has reverted to only setting `skeleton-positions' and no longer
-sets `skeleton-point'.  Skeletons which used @ to mark
-`skeleton-point' independent of `_' should now use `-' instead.  The
-updated `skeleton-insert' docstring explains these new features along
-with other details of skeleton construction.
+*** You can now customize `fill-nobreak-predicate' to control where
+filling can break lines.  The value is now normally a list of
+functions, but it can also be a single function, for compatibility.
 
-*** The variables `skeleton-transformation', `skeleton-filter', and
-`skeleton-pair-filter' have been renamed to
-`skeleton-transformation-function', `skeleton-filter-function', and
-`skeleton-pair-filter-function'.  The old names are still available
-as aliases.
+Emacs provide two predicates, `fill-single-word-nobreak-p' and
+`fill-french-nobreak-p', for use as the value of
+`fill-nobreak-predicate'.
 
-** Hideshow mode changes
+*** M-x view-file and commands that use it now avoid interfering
+with special modes such as Tar mode.
 
-*** New variable `hs-set-up-overlay' allows customization of the overlay
-used to effect hiding for hideshow minor mode.  Integration with isearch
-handles the overlay property `display' specially, preserving it during
-temporary overlay showing in the course of an isearch operation.
+*** `global-whitespace-mode' is a new alias for `whitespace-global-mode'.
 
-*** New variable `hs-allow-nesting' non-nil means that hiding a block does
-not discard the hidden state of any "internal" blocks; when the parent
-block is later shown, the internal blocks remain hidden.  Default is nil.
+*** The saveplace.el package now filters out unreadable files.
 
-** `hide-ifdef-mode' now uses overlays rather than selective-display
-to hide its text.  This should be mostly transparent but slightly
-changes the behavior of motion commands like C-e and C-p.
+When you exit Emacs, the saved positions in visited files no longer
+include files that aren't readable, e.g. files that don't exist.
+Customize the new option `save-place-forget-unreadable-files' to nil
+to get the old behavior.  The new options `save-place-save-skipped'
+and `save-place-skip-check-regexp' allow further fine-tuning of this
+feature.
 
-** `partial-completion-mode' now handles partial completion on directory names.
+*** Commands `winner-redo' and `winner-undo', from winner.el, are now
+bound to C-c <left> and C-c <right>, respectively.  This is an
+incompatible change.
 
-** The type-break package now allows `type-break-file-name' to be nil
+*** The type-break package now allows `type-break-file-name' to be nil
 and if so, doesn't store any data across sessions.  This is handy if
 you don't want the `.type-break' file in your home directory or are
 annoyed by the need for interaction when you kill Emacs.
 
-** `ps-print' can now print characters from the mule-unicode charsets.
+*** `ps-print' can now print characters from the mule-unicode charsets.
 
 Printing text with characters from the mule-unicode-* sets works with
 `ps-print', provided that you have installed the appropriate BDF
 fonts.  See the file INSTALL for URLs where you can find these fonts.
 
-** New command `strokes-global-set-stroke-string'.
+*** New command `strokes-global-set-stroke-string'.
 This is like `strokes-global-set-stroke', but it allows you to bind
 the stroke directly to a string to insert.  This is convenient for
 using strokes as an input method.
 
-** Emacs server changes:
-
-*** You can have several Emacs servers on the same machine.
-
-       % emacs --eval '(setq server-name "foo")' -f server-start &
-       % emacs --eval '(setq server-name "bar")' -f server-start &
-       % emacsclient -s foo file1
-       % emacsclient -s bar file2
+*** In Outline mode, `hide-body' no longer hides lines at the top
+of the file that precede the first header line.
 
-*** The `emacsclient' command understands the options `--eval' and
-`--display' which tell Emacs respectively to evaluate the given Lisp
-expression and to use the given display when visiting files.
+*** `hide-ifdef-mode' now uses overlays rather than selective-display
+to hide its text.  This should be mostly transparent but slightly
+changes the behavior of motion commands like C-e and C-p.
 
-*** User option `server-mode' can be used to start a server process.
+*** In Artist mode the variable `artist-text-renderer' has been
+renamed to `artist-text-renderer-function'.  The old name is still
+available as alias.
 
-** LDAP support now defaults to ldapsearch from OpenLDAP version 2.
+*** In Enriched mode, `set-left-margin' and `set-right-margin' are now
+by default bound to `C-c [' and `C-c ]' instead of the former `C-c C-l'
+and `C-c C-r'.
 
-** You can now disable pc-selection-mode after enabling it.
+*** `partial-completion-mode' now handles partial completion on directory 
names.
+
+*** You can now disable pc-selection-mode after enabling it.
 
 M-x pc-selection-mode behaves like a proper minor mode, and with no
 argument it toggles the mode.  Turning off PC-Selection mode restores
 the global key bindings that were replaced by turning on the mode.
 
-** `uniquify-strip-common-suffix' tells uniquify to prefer
+*** `uniquify-strip-common-suffix' tells uniquify to prefer
 `file|dir1' and `file|dir2' to `file|dir1/subdir' and `file|dir2/subdir'.
 
-** Support for `magic cookie' standout modes has been removed.
-
-Emacs still works on terminals that require magic cookies in order to
-use standout mode, but they can no longer display mode-lines in
-inverse-video.
-
-** The game `mpuz' is enhanced.
+*** New user option `add-log-always-start-new-record'.
 
-`mpuz' now allows the 2nd factor not to have two identical digits.  By
-default, all trivial operations involving whole lines are performed
-automatically.  The game uses faces for better visual feedback.
+When this option is enabled, M-x add-change-log-entry always
+starts a new record regardless of when the last record is.
 
-** battery.el changes:
+*** M-x compare-windows now can automatically skip non-matching text to
+resync points in both windows.
 
-*** display-battery-mode replaces display-battery.
+*** PO translation files are decoded according to their MIME headers
+when Emacs visits them.
 
-*** battery.el now works on recent versions of OS X.
+*** Telnet now prompts you for a port number with C-u M-x telnet.
 
-** calculator.el now has radix grouping mode.
+*** calculator.el now has radix grouping mode.
 
 To enable this, set `calculator-output-radix' non-nil.  In this mode a
 separator character is used every few digits, making it easier to see
 byte boundaries etc.  For more info, see the documentation of the
 variable `calculator-radix-grouping-mode'.
 
-** fast-lock.el and lazy-lock.el are obsolete.  Use jit-lock.el instead.
-
-** iso-acc.el is now obsolete.  Use one of the latin input methods instead.
-
-** zone-mode.el is now obsolete.  Use dns-mode.el instead.
-
-** cplus-md.el has been deleted.
-
-** Ewoc changes
-
-*** The new function `ewoc-delete' deletes specified nodes.
-
-*** `ewoc-create' now takes optional arg NOSEP, which inhibits insertion of
-a newline after each pretty-printed entry and after the header and footer.
-This allows you to create multiple-entry ewocs on a single line and to
-effect "invisible" nodes by arranging for the pretty-printer to not print
-anything for those nodes.
-
-For example, these two sequences of expressions behave identically:
-
-;; NOSEP nil
-(defun PP (data) (insert (format "%S" data)))
-(ewoc-create 'PP "start\n")
+*** LDAP support now defaults to ldapsearch from OpenLDAP version 2.
 
-;; NOSEP t
-(defun PP (data) (insert (format "%S\n" data)))
-(ewoc-create 'PP "start\n\n" "\n" t)
+*** The terminal emulation code in term.el has been improved; it can
+run most curses applications now.
 
-** Locate changes
+*** Support for `magic cookie' standout modes has been removed.
 
-*** By default, reverting the *Locate* buffer now just runs the last
-`locate' command back over again without offering to update the locate
-database (which normally only works if you have root privileges).  If
-you prefer the old behavior, set the new customizable option
-`locate-update-when-revert' to t.
+Emacs still works on terminals that require magic cookies in order to
+use standout mode, but they can no longer display mode-lines in
