+
+<pre>
+This release includes some package changes. If you use the crypto/tls or
+go/parser packages your code may require changes.
+
+The crypto/tls package's Dial function now takes an additional *Config
+argument.  Most uses will pass nil to get the same default behavior as before.
+See the documentation for details:
+        http://golang.org/pkg/crypto/tls/#Config
+        http://golang.org/pkg/crypto/tls/#Dial
+
+The go/parser package's ParseFile function now takes a *token.FileSet as its
+first argument. This is a pointer to a data structure used to store
+position information. If you don't care about position information you
+can pass "token.NewFileSet()". See the documentation for details:
+        http://golang.org/pkg/go/parser/#ParseFile
+
+This release also splits the patent grant text out of the LICENSE file into a
+separate PATENTS file and changes it to be more like the WebM grant.
+These clarifications were made at the request of the Fedora project.
