+	Due to the massive change in the underlying system under way,
+	we're naming the next release 1.0.  The sys/sys/param.h was
+	changed accordingly.  ipfilter and ncurses were corrected
+	using __MidnightBSD__ tests in the code.  
+
+	The GENERIC kernel config was caught up on i386 today.  Consider
+	i386 still broken, but amd64 is running again. 
+
+	mdoc.local was updated with the new MidnightBSD version info.
+
+	batt(1) was rewritten in C.  It now supports several flags and
+	runs about 8 times faster on my laptop.  The default output
+	shows the number of minutes of battery life remaining and the
+	percentage.  You can use -u to display the number of batteries or
+	-c to get script friendly output.  Consult the man page for more.
