+	The format of "System Events" as defined in the man page for
+	<seealso marker="stdlib:sys">sys</seealso>
+	has been clarified and cleaned up.
+	Due to this, code that relied on the internal badly
+	documented previous (before this change) format
+	of OTP's "System Events", needs to be changed.
+      </p>
+      <p>
+	In the wake of this the function
+	<seealso marker="stdlib:sys#get_debug/3">sys:get_debug/3</seealso>
+	that returns data with undocumented and internal format
+	(and therefore is practically useless) has been deprecated,
+	and a new function
+	<seealso marker="stdlib:sys#get_log/1">sys:get_log/1</seealso>
+	has been added,
+	that hopefully does what the deprecated function was intended for.
