+* Changes in SEMI 1.8
+
+** Don't use "file" command to detect content of entity
+
+  Acting-method to detect content of entity was modified not to use
+"file" command.
+
+  Variable `mime-file-content-type-alist' was abolished.  Instead of
+it, new variable `mime-magic-type-alist' is available to customize.
+It is an alist of regexp about magic-number vs. corresponding
+media-types.  Each element looks like (REGEXP TYPE SUBTYPE).  REGEXP
+is a regular expression to match against the beginning of the content
+of entity.  TYPE is symbol to indicate primary type of media-type.
+SUBTYPE is symbol to indicate subtype of media-type.
+
+
+** Abolish external X-Face viewer
+
+
+** Abolish obsolete utility for *-field-list and *-field-regexp
+
+  Abolish function `tm:set-fields', `tm:add-fields' and
+`tm:delete-fields'.
+
+
+** Change MUA interface of automatic message/partial combining
+
+  Abolish variable `mime-view-partial-message-method-alist'.
+
+  Instead of it, `request-partial-message-method' in acting-situation
+is available to specify MUA depended implementation.
+
+  Each element of `mime-view-partial-message-method-alist' were
+required to display message at current summary line, and its return
+value were ignored.  On the other hand,
+`request-partial-message-method' is required to return structure of
+message at current summary line.  Format of it is mime-entity.
