-Botan 1.8.8 2009-11-03
+Botan 1.8.9-dev ????-??-??
 
 Botan is a C++ class library for performing a wide variety of
 cryptographic operations.
 
 I consider this release the best version available, and recommend all
-users upgrade from 1.6 or earlier versions as soon as possible. Some
-APIs have changed incompatibly since the 1.6 release series, but most
-applications should work as-is or with only simple modifications.
-
-Botan is under a BSD-like license, the details of which can be found
-in license.txt. More information about the authors and contributors
-can be found in credits.txt and thanks.txt. All of these files are
-included in the doc/ directory of the source distribution.

-You can file bugs in Bugzilla, which can be accessed at
-  http://www.randombit.net/bugzilla/
-or by sending a report to the botan-devel mailing list
