+	    A bug introduced in OTP-20 would make Crashdump Viewer
+	    crash when trying to expand an empty binary. This is now
+	    corrected.</p>

+          <p>
+	    If a match spec in the config file contained more than
+	    one clause, observer would earlier crash when trying to
+	    display it in the GUI. This is now corrected.</p>

+	    <p>Maps are now included in crash dumps.</p>
+	    <p>Constants terms would only be shown in one process,
+	    while other processes referencing the same constant term
+	    would show a marker for incomplete heap. </p>

+	    <p>Binaries and some other data in crash dumps are now
+	    encoded in base64 (instead of in hex), which will reduce
+	    the size of crash dumps.</p>
+	    <p>A few bugs in the handling of sub binaries in
+	    <c>crashdump_viewer</c> have been fixed.</p>

+          <p>
+	    In order to allow future improvements, Crashdump Viewer
+	    now checks the version tag of the crashdump to see that
+	    it is a known format. If the crashdump version is newer
+	    than Crashdump Viewer is prepared to read, then an
+	    information dialog is displayed before Crashdump Viewer
+	    terminates.</p>
+          <p>
+	    If an incomplete process heap is discovered in a
+	    crashdump, Crashdump Viewer will now display a warning
+	    for this, similar to the warning displayed when a
+	    crashdump is truncated. Incomplete heaps can occur if for
+	    instance the literals are not included, which is the case
+	    for all dumps prior to OTP-20.2.</p>
