 Major changes compare to 2.x:
+Build:
+  FluffOS has switched to c++ language.
+  use try/catch instead of longjmp. (wodan)
+  C++11 (G++ 4.6+, CLANG 2.9+) environment is required to build.
+  64bit LPC runtime on all platforms (including 32bit linux/CYGWIN).
   switch to autoconf (alpha4 done)
-  PACKAGE_TRIM (alpha4 done)
-  C++11 (G++ 4.6+, CLANG 2.9+) environment is required (alpha3 done)
-  Support 32bit platform, CYGWIN build. (alpha2 done)
-  64bit LPC runtime on all platforms (alpha2 done)
-  EFUN limit has been raised to 65535 (alpha2)
-  CALLOUT_LOOP_PROTECTION, SANE_SORTING (alpha2)
+
+Functionaltiy:
+  limit for number of EFUNs has been raised to 65535 (alpha2)
+  unique_mapping() no longer leak memory.
+
+New compile options/packages:
+  PACKAGE_TRIM: (zoilder), rtrim, ltrim, and trim for string trimming.
+  PACKAGE_CRYPTO: build fixes and enhancements. (voltara@lpmuds.net)
+  PACKAGE_SHA1: Fix incorrect sha1() hash generation, verified with tests.
+                (voltara@lpmuds.net)
+  POSIX_TIMERS: better time preceision tracking for eval cost. (voltara@lpmuds.net)
+  CALLOUT_LOOP_PROTECTION: protect call_out(0) loops. (voltara@lpmuds.net)
+  SANE_SORTING: Use faster sorting implementation for "sort_array()", but requires
+                LPC code to return conforming results.
+  REVERSE_DEFER: fifo execution order for defer() efun (default to lifo)
 
 TODOs:
-  add boost asio for async networking.
-  get rid of addr_server
+  incorporate libevent, get rid of addr_server
   remove SQLITE2 support from package/db.c
   switch to automake
   switch to TCMalloc
   get rid of edit_source
   LPC JIT compiler
 
+Known Issues:
+  "-MAX_INT" is not parsed correctly in LPC(pre-existing bug), see
+    src/testsuite/single/tests/64bit.c for details.
