+    <p>Most of growth is in hush. The rest shrank a bit.
+
+    <p>New applets:
+      <ul>
+	<li>flash_eraseall: by Sebastian Andrzej Siewior (bigeasy AT linutronix.de)</li>
+	<li>acpid,mkdosfs (aka mkfs.vfat),tunctl: by Vladimir</li>
+	<li>ftpd: by Adam Tkac</li>
+	<li>timeout: by Roberto Foglietta</li>
+	<li>ionice: adapted from Linux kernel' example by Walter Harms</li>
+	<li>mkpasswd: synonym to cryptpw. mkpasswd is in Debian, OTOH cryptpw was added to busybox earlier. Trying to make both camps happy by making those two applets just aliases. They are command-line compatible</li>
+      </ul>
+
+    <p>Changes since previous release:
+
+    <p>lash and msh are deprecated, please migrate to hush.
+
+    <p>hush had many, many fixes and features added: here documents, arithmetic evaluation, function support, and all this works on NOMMU too, safely: 100kb-sized `command` and heredocs. Here document support, arithmetic evaluation, improved ${var} ops, other fixes are by Mike Frysinger (vapier AT gentoo.org).
+
+    <p>Other changes:

+	<li>libbb: make bb_info_msg do atomic, unbuffered writes</li>
+	<li>adduser: allow adding to group 0; don't _create_ /etc/shadow, only append data if it exists</li>
