+This document details the changes between this version, bash-2.02.1-release,
+and the previous version, bash-2.02-release.
+
+1. Changes to Bash
+
+a. A bug that caused the bash readline support to not compile unless aliases
+ and csh-style history were configured into the shell was fixed.
+
+b. Fixed a bug that could cause a core dump when here documents contained
+ more than 1000 characters.
+
+c. Fixed a bug that caused a CDPATH entry of "" to not be treated the same
+ as the current directory when in POSIX mode.
+
+d. Fixed an alignment problem with the memory returned by the bash malloc,
+ so returned memory is now 64-bit aligned.
+
+e. Fixed a bug that caused command substitutions executed within pipelines
+ to put the terminal in the wrong process group.
+
+f. Fixes to support/config.sub for: alphas, SCO Open Server and Open Desktop,
+ Unixware 2, and Unixware 7.
+
+g. Fixes to the pattern matching code to make it work correctly for eight-bit
+ characters.
+
+h. Fixed a problem that occasionally caused the shell to display the wrong
+ value for the new working directory when changing to a directory found
+ in $CDPATH when in physical mode.
+
+i. Fixed a bug that caused core dumps when using conditional commands in
+ shell functions.
+
+j. Fixed a bug that caused the printf builtin to loop forever if the format
+ string did not consume any of the arguments.
+
+k. Fixed a bug in the parameter expansion code that caused "$@" to be
+ incorrectly split if $IFS did not contain a space character.
+
+l. Fixed a bug that could cause a core dump when completing hostnames if
+ the number of matching hostnames was an exact multiple of 16.
+
+m. Fixed a bug that caused the shell to fork too early when a command
+ such as `%2 &' was given.
+
+2. Changes to Readline
+
+a. Fixed a problem with redisplay that showed up when the prompt string was
+ longer than the screen width and the prompt contained invisible characters.
