Fair enough, but I balk at distrubing an untold number of people on a
mailing list for a rather banal question.

Yes, I realize this, but I was upgrading from 1.2.something, I'm not so
interested in just the differences between 1.4.9 and 1.4.10.  I had hoped
to find, for example, the differences between 1.0, 1.2, and 1.4 under the
"History and Credits" section, but I found only credits.  You're right,
This shouldn't include every bug fix in minute detail, just the grand
sweeping changes.

I don't mean, "new" new, just new to me.  One thing I look for when
deciding which open-source package to use among several choices is a
large, active development community.  This ensures that periodically the
program will get cooler.  

I'll check out the devel mailing list...
Thanks!
