 1. IMPORTANT CHANGES
 
-February 2009, Privoxy 3.0.11 is released.
-
-As usual there are changes that effect the configuration. See the "ChangeLog",
-and the "What's New" section and the "Upgrader's Notes" in the User Manual for
-details and specifics.
+July 2009, Privoxy 3.0.14 beta is released.
 
-This is a stable release, and marks a departure for Privoxy development.
+This is a bugfix-release for the previous beta which introduced IPv6 support,
+improved keep-alive support and a bunch of minor improvements. See the
+"ChangeLog", and the "What's New" section and the "Upgrader's Notes" in the
+User Manual for details.
 
-Previously, odd numbered releases were considered beta versions and were only
-released at the end of the development cycle when the code was already believed
-to be stable. Usually it was, so the stable release contained pretty much the
-same code, but got a higher version number. In the future we intend to release
-several snapshots between stable releases. There will probably still be about
-two stable releases per year, but hopefully about six snapshots instead of the
-two betas we have now. The intentions is to make testing without CVS access
-easier.
+Depending on the feedback it will be either followed by yet another beta
+release, or by a stable release with the same feature set.
