-changes relative to sbcl-1.1.3:
+changes relative to sbcl-1.1.4:
+  * new feature: package local nicknames. See manual for details.
+  * new feature: SB-EXT:MAP-DIRECTORY provides a powerful interface for
+    directory traversal: it is the backend used by SBCL for CL:DIRECTORY.
+  * enhancement: easier to use restarts for resolving name-conflicts
+    resulting from IMPORT, EXPORT, or USE-PACKAGE.
+  * enhancement: variant DEFPACKAGE forms now signal a full error with
+    restarts provided for resolving the situation. (lp#891351)
+  * enhancement: by setting SB-EXT:*ON-PACKAGE-VARIANCE* appropriately variant
+    DEFPACKAGE forms can now signal a full error with restarts provided for
+    resolving the situation. See manual for details. (lp#891351)
+  * enhancement: make-random-state now uses CryptGenRandom as a seed on Windows.
+    (Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.) (lp#1102748)
+  * enhancement: backtrace improvements
+    ** secondary CLOS dispatch functions have better debug names (lp#503081)
+    ** easier to read method names in backtraces. See
+       SB-DEBUG:*METHOD-FRAME-STYLE*.
+    ** SB-DEBUG:PRINT-BACKTRACE and SB-DEBUG:LIST-BACKTRACE are available as
+       forwards-compatible replacements for SB-DEBUG:BACKTRACE and
+       SB-DEBUG:BACKTRACE-AS-LIST.
+    ** SB-DEBUG:*SHOW-ENTRY-POINT-DETAILS** has been deprecated, as the same
+       information is available in less intrusive form as frame annotations.
+  * bug fix: deleting a package removes it from implementation-package
+    lists of other packages.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.1.4 relative to sbcl-1.1.3:
+  * optimization: LOOP expressions using "of-type character" have slightly
+    more efficient expansions.
   * bug fix: very long (or infinite) constant lists in DOLIST do not result
     in very long compile times or heap exhaustion anymore. (lp#1095488)
   * bug fix: `#3(1) is read as #(1 1 1), not as #(1). (lp#1095918)
   * bug fix: adjust-array ignored :initial-element for simple-vectors.
     (lp#1096359)
+  * bug fix: optimizations to MAKE-INSTANCE with literal list initargs no
+    longer cause infinite loops (on circular data) or violate eqlity
+    constraints.  (lp#1099708)
+  * bug fix: FIRST was not being open coded. (regression from 1.1.0)
 
 changes in sbcl-1.1.3 relative to sbcl-1.1.2:
   * enhancement: warnings about bad locale settings, LANG, LC_CTYPE, etc.
