+
+Bug fixes
+---------
+
+* Many bug fixes (about 30), see the ChangeLog for details.
+
+
+Interface
+---------
+
+* By popular demand, the zmq_stopwatch_start, zmq_stopwatch_stop and zmq_sleep
+  functions have been added back into distribution.  This API is now in a
+  separate include file, zmq_utils.h.
+
+* The ZMQ_UPSTREAM and ZMQ_DOWNSTREAM socket types have been renamed to
+  ZMQ_PULL and ZMQ_PUSH for clarity.  The old names are still defined for
+  compatibility reasons and will be removed in a future version.
+
+* API calls that expect non-null parameters now return -1 and set errno to
+  EFAULT if null parameters are passed.
+
+
+Thanks to

+
+Everyone.
