 <h1> News for Octave Version 2 </h1>
 <hr>
 
+<h2>Summary of changes for version 2.0.10</h2>
+
+<ul>
+<li>The built-in variable `PWD' has been removed.  If you need to get
+    the value of the current working directory, use the pwd() function
+    instead.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>For compatibility with Matlab, Octave's lyap function now solves
+<pre>
+      A*X + X*A' + C = 0
+</pre>
+    instead of
+<pre>
+      A'*X + X*A + C = 0
+</pre>
+    To try to avoid confusion for people who are used to the way
+    Octave behaved in previous versions, a warning is printed the
+    first time lyap is called in a given session.  To completely
+    disable the warning, simply add
+<pre>
+      global __disable_lyap_interface_change_warning__;
+</pre>
+    to your ~/.octaverc file.  The warning will eventually disappear
+    for good in some future version of Octave.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>New built-in functions for computing Bessel functions:
+    besseli, besselj, besselk, and bessely.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>The gammai and betai functions are now implemented as built-in
+    functions rather than function files.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>The new built-in variable `implicit_num_to_str_ok' controls
+    whether Octave converts expressions like `[97, 98, 99, "123"]' to
+    strings.  The default value is 0 unless you use --traditional.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>The new built-in variable `fixed_point_format' controls whether
+    Octave uses a scaled fixed-point format for displaying matrices.
+    The default value is 0 unless you use --traditional.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>The function sumsq now computes sum (x .* conj (x)) for complex values.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>Dynamically linked functions can be cleared.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>If a .oct file has a time stamp more recent than the time that it
+    was loaded, it is automatically reloaded.  Reloading a .oct file
+    may cause several functions to be cleared automatically.  By
+    default, a warning is printed that lists the names of the
+    functions that will be cleared.  You can suppress the message by
+    setting the new built-in variable `warn_reload_forces_clear' to 0.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>Global variables are now initialized to the empty matrix, for
+    compatibility with Matlab.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>Explicit initialization of global variables only happens once.
+    For example, after the following statements are evaluated, g still
+    has the value 1.
+<pre>
+      global g = 1
+      global g = 2
+</pre>
+    This is useful for initializing global variables that are used to
+    maintain state information that is shared among several functions.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>The new built-in variable max_recursion_depth allows you to
+    prevent Octave from attempting infinite recursion.  The default
+    value is 256.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>Octave now uses readline version 2.1 and kpathsea 3.0.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>The libreadline and libkpathsea libraries are no longer installed.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>The libcruft, liboctave, and liboctinterp libraries are now
+    installed in $libdir/octave instead of just $libdir.
+</li>
+<p>
+<li>It's no longer necessary to have libg++, but you do need to have
+    the GNU implementation of libstdc++.  If you are using gcc 2.7.2,
+    libstdc++ is distributed as part of libg++ 2.7.2.  For later
+    versions, libstdc++ is distributed separately.  For egcs,
+    libstdc++ is included with the compiler distribution.
+</li>
