2	-----------------------
3	This is a list of the most important changes in 2.x versions. It is by
4	no means complete, listing only the most significant changes.
5	The ultimate way to know what has changed is to run diff, or even neater,
6	ask CVS about it:
7
8	* Checkout the archive (see doc/cvs for how you can do this)
9	* Determine which tags are valid, by running this command from the
10	project root directory:
11	cvs status -v -l Makefile
12	Valid tags are usually of the form V2-1-0 for version 2.1.0
13	* Ask cvs for the difference between two versions:
14	cvs diff -r TAG1 -r TAG2 DIFF-OPTIONS
15	for example:
16	cvs diff -r V2-0-0 -r V2-0-1 -u
