  <li>Clickable links in text postings: URLs in non-HTML postings are now
      recognized by Geeklog and displayed as clickable links.</li>
+ <li>Editable story IDs: The IDs of stories can now be changed (like the IDs of
+     static pages) to provide more readable URLs (and further improve the
+     chances of being picked up by seach engines, especially when used with
+     URL rewriting).</li>
  <li>Autolinks are a new form of links that can be used in stories and comments.

  <li>Various changes have been made to improve the overall performance.</li>
! <li>On fresh installs, there is now an option to use InnoDB tables (instead of
!     MyISAM) if your MySQL version supports them (as of MySQL 4.0, or 3.x "Max"
!     builds). Existing databases can be converted to InnoDB by using the script
!     <tt>admin/install/toinnodb.php</tt>.<br>
!     <strong>Warning:</strong> Using InnoDB tables makes database backups
!     somewhat more complicated. Small and medium-sized sites should work just
!     fine with MyISAM tables, so if in doubt <em>don't</em> use InnoDB
!     tables.</li>

  <li>Keeping an unscaled image wasn't possible when using gdlib to rescale
      images (bug #197).</li>
  <li>The tarball also includes updated PEAR packages which should address the
!     email problems some users were having (bug #246).</p>

      images (bug #197).</li>
+ <li>When using gdlib, GIF images were converted to PNG format, but Geeklog
+     was still trying to display the GIF version. Since the LZW patent has
+     now <a href="http://www.unisys.com/about__unisys/lzw">expired</a>, it is
+     safe to use GIF images again and the PNG conversion has been dropped.</li>
  <li>The tarball also includes updated PEAR packages which should address the
!     email problems some users were having (bug #246).<br>
!     <strong>Note:</strong> These are the same PEAR packages that already
!     shipped with Geeklog 1.3.9sr2.</li>

+ - In admin/mail.php, apply htmlspecialchars() on the email addresses before
+   displaying them, as the '<foo at example.com>' part will be interpreted as
+   HTML by some browsers (pointed out by LWC) [Dirk]
+ - When using gdlib for image resizing, GIF images were converted to PNG, but
+   Geeklog was still trying to display the GIF (reported by Tom Willet). Since
+   the LZW patent has now expired (see http://www.unisys.com/about__unisys/lzw),
+   it is safe to use GIF images again, so the PNG conversion was dropped [Dirk]
  - Fixed link to the Anonymous user's profile in comment/thread.thtml [Dirk]
  - Added Location field to the user profile [Blaine]
