 ;;;; -*- coding: utf-8; -*-
+changes in sbcl-1.0.2 relative to sbcl-1.0.1:
+  * improvement: experimental support for mach exception handling on
+    x86/macos. requires building with :MACH-EXCEPTION-HANDLER feature
+    to use.
+  * improvement: support for GBK external format.
+    (thanks to Chun Tian (binghe))
+  * improvement: the debugger now displays variables that have been closed
+    over, in code compiled with (DEBUG 2) or higher
+  * improvement: support for executable cores on NetBSD (thanks to 
+    Richard Kreuter)
+  * new feature: added a RESTART-FRAME debugger command
+  * optimization: the function call overhead in code compiled with 
+    a high DEBUG optimization setting is significantly 
+  * bug fix: an error is signaled for attempts to use READ-SEQUENCE
+    for a (SIGNED-BYTE 8) stream and (UNSIGNED-BYTE 8) vector, or vice versa.
+    (thanks to Tony Martinez)
+  * bug fix: the initforms for DEFMETHOD &AUX parameters are only
+    evaluated once (reported by Kevin Reid)
+
 changes in sbcl-1.0.1 relative to sbcl-1.0:
+  * new platform: FreeBSD/x86-64, including support for threading.
+  * new feature: the compiler stores cross-referencing information
+    abount function calls (who-calls), macroexpansion (who-macroexpands)
+    and special variables (who-binds, who-sets, who-references) for code
+    compiled with (< SPACE 3). This information is available through the
+    sb-introspect contrib.
+  * new feature: users may subclass SEQUENCE, and have instances of
+    these classes interoperate with standard Common Lisp functions if
+    a number of methods are defined.  (This feature is experimental
+    and the interface subject to change based on feedback from SBCL
+    users and the general community)
   * improvement: sb-sprof traces call stacks to an arbitrary depth on
     x86/x86-64, rather than the previous fixed depth of 8
+  * improvement: another pthread back-end of mutex "pthread-futex".
   * bug fix: non-ascii command-line arguments are processed correctly 
     (thanks to Yaroslav Kavenchuk)
-  * bug fix: TRACE :ENCAPSULATE NIL (and function end breakpoints)
-    work on Windows.
   * bug fix: non-required arguments were not passed correctly when a method
     defined using DEFMETHOD was called from a mop-generated method using
     CALL-NEXT-METHOD (reported by Pascal Costanza)
+  * bug fix: recursion is now permitted in accessors through
+    SLOT-UNBOUND.  (reported by Pascal Costanza)
+  * bug fix: an error was signaled at startup if the HOME environment 
+    variable was defined, but had an empty value (reported by Peter Van Eynde)
+  * bug fix: non ordinary lambda-list keyword in ordinary lambda lists
+    signal a PROGRAM-ERROR, not a BUG.
+  * bug fix: SB-POSIX:READDIR works when built with large file support.
+  * bug fix: ENOUGH-NAMESTRING works relative to #p"/" as well. (thanks
+    to Marco Monteiro)
+  * enhancement: DESTRUCTURING-BIND lambda-list uses &BODY instead of &REST
+    for better automatic indentation support. (thanks to Matt Pillsbury)
+  * optimization: loading generic functions no longer takes O(n^2) time,
+    proportional to the amount of methods in the generic function
+    (reported by Todd Sabin and Jeremy Brown)        
   * optimization: the FIND and POSITION family of sequence functions
     are significantly faster on arrays whose element types have been
     declared.
+  * improvements to the Windows port:
+    ** Intermittent heap corruption problems have been fixed. (thanks
+       to Alastair Bridgewater)
+    ** TRACE :ENCAPSULATE NIL (and function end breakpoints)
+       work on Windows.
+    ** Lisp is able to unwind foreign exception frames from alien
+       callbacks. (thanks to Alastair Bridgewater)
 
 changes in sbcl-1.0 relative to sbcl-0.9.18:
   * improvement: experimental support for threading on FreeBSD/x86.
