+System Tools Backends Version 2.9.0, 2010-01-11
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+The System Tools Backends version 2.9.0 "Once Again" have been released. This development release is incompatible with the previous 2.8 series.
+
+Changes since last release
+==========================
+
+ - New users and groups protocol. This includes many changes, notably:
+ * Ability to commit users and groups individually (preferred method), to avoid destroying the system when severe bugs occur.
+ * Password received in clear text, so that they are changed using the standard PAM stack (this fixes problems with keyrings, encrypted folders, and new encryption methods)
+ * New fields: whether home should be removed when deleting user, or chown to user when created; whether to disable password; encrypt home directory; locale and location (for future extensions).
+ * When creating users, leaving some fields empty allows the platform tools to choose defaults, and the filled structure is sent as a reply.
+ * UIDs and GIDs are now uint32, to work with all of our platforms.
+
+ - Fixed error reporting when running external commands.
