+PolicyKit 0.5 "Urban Living"
+==========
+
+Released on August 31st 2007.
+
+This is the third release of PolicyKit. Since 0.4 both source- and
+file-format level incomptible changes have been introduced. Accordingly, 
+the library so-names have been bumped to reflect this. Porting effort
+should be minimal though; see the example in PolicyKit-gnome for details.
+
+WARNING WARNING WARNING: do not use this software in a stable
+distribution; there are still security sensitive things that needs to
+be audited.
