+        Major changes to plugin mechanism now allow out-of-process
+        plugins full random-access to the entire file.  Most plugins
+        have now been rewritten to the new plugin API (0.7).  The external
+        (libextractor) API will remain unchanged and compatible with LE 0.6.
+
+        As part of the rewrite, many plugins were changed to use 
+        standard 3rd party libraries (libjpeg, libtiff, libgif, 
+        libtidy, libmagic) for parsing.  A new plugin based on
+        gstreamer replaces many existing multimedia plugins.
+
+        Automated testcases for (almost all) of the plugins
+        were also written and the documentation was updated.
+
+        The license was changed to GNU GPL v3+.
