+ <p>Thanks to Olle Mattsson the GUI parts are rewritten to
+ use <c>wxWidgets</c>. For the time being it is still
+ possible to use the old <c>GS</c> based version of the tool,
+ but it is deprecated. The <c>wxWidgets</c> based version is
+ started by default.</p>
+
+ <p>A print function has been added, in order to enable
+ printing of sequence charts.</p>
+
+ <p>A new tutorial has been added to the documentation. It is
+ based on <c>Jayson Vantuyl's</c> article
+ <c>http://souja.net/2009/04/making-sense-of-erlangs-event-tracer.html</c>.</p>
+
+ <p>The functions <c>et:trace_me/4</c> and
+ <c>et:trace_me/5</c> has been introduced in order to replace
+ the deprecated functions <c>et:report_event/4</c> and
+ <c>et:report_event/5</c>. Hopefully the new names makes it a
+ little more obvious what the intended usage of the functions
+ are.</p>
+
+ <p>The <c>max_events</c> configuration parameter to
+ <c>et_viewer</c> is not used any more. Now the event cache
+ in the <c>Viewer</c> only contains those events that
+ actually are displayed in the GUI.</p>
