 * Changes in XEmacs 21.2
 ========================
 
+** XEmacs now locates the early package hierarchy at ~/.xemacs/packages.
+
+This has changed from simply ~/.xemacs.

 ** `delete-key-deletes-forward' now defaults to t.

 The new primitives available for this purpose are functions named
 `user-name-completion' and `user-name-all-completions'.
 
+** Native widgets can be displayed in buffers.
+
+The glyph system has been extended to allow the display of glyphs that
+are implemented as native window-system widgets. Thus you can embed
+buttons, scrollbars, combo boxes, edit fields and progress gauges in a
+buffer. As a side effect subwindow support now works once again.
+
+This support is currently only available under MS-Windows.
+
+** X-Face support is now available under MS-Windows
+
+If an X-Face libary built under MS-Windows is available then XEmacs
+will use this at build time.
+
+** The font-menu is now available under MS-Windows
+
+** MS-Windows support for selection is much more robust
+
+Generally selection should now do what you would expect under
+MS-Windows: the middle mouse button will paste your current selection
+or the clipboard; conversions from different types of selection to the
+clipboard can be made; the kill-ring and friends will be updated as
+per X.
+
+The only thing selection doesn't do is set the clipboard automatically
+as this would break the MS-Windows model. If you want this behaviour
+then set `selection-sets-clipboard' to t
