+LATEST CHANGES BETWEEN 2.0.4 and 2.0.3
+
+  - fixed a rather annoying bug that was introduced in 2.0.3.
+    Namely, the font transform set through FT_Set_Transform was applied
+    twiced to auto-hinted glyphs, resulting in incorrect rotated text
+    output
+    
+  - fixed _many_ compiler warnings. FT2 should now compile cleanly with
+    Visual C++'s most pedantic warning level (/W4). It already compiled
+    fine with GCC and a few other compilers..
+
+  - fixed the Visual C++ project files located in "builds/win32/visualc"
+    (previous versions used older names of the library)
+  
+  - many 32-bit constants have an "L" appended to their value, in order
+    to improve the 16-bitness of the code. Someone is actually trying to
+    use FT2 on an Atari ST machine !!
+
+  - updated the "builds/detect.mk" file in order to automatically build
+    FT2 on AIX systems. AIX does define "/usr/sbin/init" instead of
+    "/sbin/init" and wasn't previously detected as a Unix platform. by
+    the FreeType build system.
+                                                       
+  - updated the Unix-specific portions of the build system (new libtool
+    version, etc..)

+WE HAVE  DISCOVERED THAT APPLE  OWNS SEVERAL PATENTS RELATED  TO THE
+RENDERING OF TRUETYPE  FONTS.  THIS COULD MEAN THAT  THE FREE USE OF
+FREETYPE  MIGHT BE  ILLEGAL IN  THE USA,  JAPAN, AND  POSSIBLY OTHER
+COUNTRIES, BE IT IN COMMERCIAL OR OPEN SOURCE PRODUCTS.
+
+FOR  MORE DETAILS,  WE STRONGLY  ADVISE YOU  TO GO  TO  THE FREETYPE
+PATENTS PAGE AT THE FOLLOWING WEB ADDRESS:
+
+                http://www.freetype.org/patents.htm
+
+WE WILL NOT PLACE INFORMATION IN THIS FILE AS THE SITUATION IS STILL
+UNDETERMINED FOR NOW.  AT THE  TIME THESE LINES ARE WRITTEN, WE HAVE
+CONTACTED APPLE'S  LEGAL DEPARTMENT AND ARE STILL  WAITING FOR THEIR
+ANSWER ON THE SUBJECT.
+
+PLEASE READ  THE `INSTALL' FILE TO  SEE HOW TO  DISABLE THE ENGINE'S
+BYTECODE INTERPRETER IN ORDER TO  BUILD A PATENT-FREE ENGINE, AT THE
+COST OF RENDERING QUALITY.
