 	**********************
-	
-	v1.93 ALPHA (95/08/10)
-	  - Should work with both 1.2.x and 1.3.x now. (I hope)
-	  - Renamed arc0w ("Windows" protocol) to arc0e ("Ethernet-Encap")
-	    because the protocol used isn't necessarily limited to
-	    Microsoft.
-
-	v1.92 ALPHA (95/07/11)
-	  - Fixes to make things work with kernel 1.3.x.  Completely broke
-	    1.2.x support.  Oops?  1.2.x users keep using 1.91 ALPHA until I
-	    get out a version that supports both.
-
-	v1.91 ALPHA (95/07/02)
-	  - Oops.  Exception packets hit us again!  I remembered to test
-	    them in ethernet-protocol mode, but due to the many various
-	    changes they broke in RFC1201 instead.  All fixed.
-	  - A long-standing bug with "exception" packets not setting
-	    protocol_id properly has been corrected.  This would have caused
-	    random problems talking to non-Linux servers.  I've also sent in
-	    a patch to fix this in the latest stable ARCnet (now 1.02).
-	  - ARC_P_IPX is an RFC1201 protocol too.  Thanks, Tomasz.
-	  - We're now "properly" (I think) handling the multiple 'tbusy' and
-	    'start' flags (one for each protocol device) better.
-	  - The driver should now start without a NULL-pointer dereference
-	    if you aren't connected to the network.
+
+	v2.00 (95/09/06)
+	  - THIS IS ONLY A SUMMARY.  The complete changelog is available
+	    from me upon request.
+
+	  - ARCnet RECON messages are now detected and logged.  These occur
+	    when a new computer is powered up on the network, or in a
+	    constant stream when the network cable is broken.  Thanks to
+	    Tomasz Motylewski for this.  You must have D_EXTRA enabled
+	    if you want these messages sent to syslog, otherwise they will
+	    only show up in the network statistics (/proc/net/dev).
+	  - The TX Acknowledge flag is now checked, and a log message is sent
+	    if a completed transmit is not ACK'd.  (I have yet to have this
+	    happen to me.)
+	  - Debug levels are now completely different.  See the README.
+	  - Many code cleanups, with several no-longer-necessary and some
+	    completely useless options removed.
+	  - Multiprotocol support.  You can now use the "arc0e" device to
+	    send "Ethernet-Encapsulation" packets, which are compatible with
+	    Windows for Workgroups and LAN Manager, and possibly other
+	    software.  See the README for more information.
+	  - Documentation updates and improvements.
 	  
-	v1.90 ALPHA (95/06/18)
-	  - Removal of some outdated and messy config options (no one has
-	    ever complained about the defaults since they were introduced):
-	    DANGER_PROBE, EXTRA_DELAYS, IRQ_XMIT, CAREFUL_XMIT,
-	    STRICT_MEM_DETECT, LIMIT_MTU, USE_TIMER_HANDLER.  Also took out
-	    a few "#if 0" sections which are no longer useful.
-	  - Cleaned up debug levels - now instead of levels, there are
-	    individual flags.  Watch out when changing with ifconfig.
-	  - More cleanups and beautification.  Removed more dead code and
-	    made sure every function was commented.
-	  - Fixed the DETECT_RECONFIGS option so that it actually _won't_
-	    detect reconfigs.  Previously, the RECON irq would be disabled
-	    but the recon messages would still be logged on the next normal
-	    IRQ.
-	  - Initial support for "multiprotocol" ARCnet (this involved a LOT
-	    of reorganizing!).  Added an arc0w device, which allows us to
-	    talk to ethernet-over-ARCnet TCP/IP protocol.  To use it, ifconfig
-	    arc0 and arc0w (in that order).  For now, ethernet-protocol
-	    hosts should have routes through arc0w - eventually I hope to
-	    make things more automatic.
-	v1.11 ALPHA (95/06/07)
-	  - Tomasz saves the day again with patches to fix operation if the
-	    new VERIFY_ACK option is disabled.
-	  - LOTS of little code cleanups/improvements by Tomasz.
-	  - Changed autoprobe, since the "never-changing command port"
-	    probe was causing problems for some people.  I also reset the
-	    card fewer times during the probe if DANGER_PROBE is defined,
-	    since DANGER_PROBE seems to be a more reliable method anyway.
-	  - It looks like the null-pointer problem was finally REALLY fixed
-	    by some change from Linux 1.2.8 to 1.2.9.  How handy!
-	v1.10 ALPHA (95/04/15)
-	  - Fixed (?) some null-pointer dereference bugs
-	  - Added better network error detection (from Tomasz) - in
-	    particular, we now notice when our network isn't connected,
-	    also known as a "network reconfiguration."
-	  - We now increment lp->stats.tx_dropped in several more places,
-	    on a suggestion from Tomasz.
-	  - Minor cleanups/spelling fixes.
-	  - We now monitor the TXACK bit in the status register: we don't do
-	    anything with it yet, just notice when a transmitted packet isn't
-	    acknowledged.
-	  - Minor fix with sequence numbers (sometimes they were being sent in
-	    the wrong order due to Linux's packet queuing).
+	v1.02 (95/06/21)
+          - A fix to make "exception" packets sent from Linux receivable
+	    on other systems.  (The protocol_id byte was sometimes being set
+	    incorrectly, and Linux wasn't checking it on receive so it
+	    didn't show up)
+
 	v1.01 (95/03/24)
 	  - Fixed some IPX-related bugs. (Thanks to Tomasz Motylewski
             <[email protected]> for the patches to make arcnet work
             with dosemu!)
+            
 	v1.00 (95/02/15)
 	  - Initial non-alpha release.

 	TO DO:
 	
          - Test in systems with NON-ARCnet network cards, just to see if

-           die.

          - What about cards with shared memory that can be "turned off?"
          - NFS mount freezes after several megabytes to SOSS for DOS. 
  	   unmount/remount fixes it.  Is this arcnet-specific?  I don't know.
          - Add support for "old" (RFC1051) protocol arcnet, such as AmiTCP
            and NetBSD.  Work in Tomasz' initial support for this.
-         - How about TCP/IP over netbios?
+         - How about TCP/IP over netbios?  Or vice versa?
          - Some newer ARCnets support promiscuous mode, supposedly. 
            If someone sends me information, I'll try to implement it.
          - Remove excess lock variables that are probably not necessary
