       - Added a modest unit test suite for the client cache.
 
+      - Wait for connection by default
+
+        The default for the ClientStorage class has changed to wait
+        until a connection is established by default.  To return
+        immediately without waiting for a connection, use
+        ClientStorage(..., wait=0).  (This only makes sense when a
+        persistent cache is also specified, by using the client
+        keyword argument to the ClientStorage constructor, or by
+        setting the ZEO_CLIENT environment variable.
+
+      - Arguments debug and wait_for_server_on_startup are back
+
+        The ZEO1 arguments debug and wait_for_server_on_startup were
+        added to the ClientStorage constructor signature, for
+        backwards compatibility (these are used in many a
+        custom_zodb.py file).  Setting debug has no effect except
+        issuing a log message.  The wait_for_server_on_startup is an
+        alias for the wait argument; using wait_for_server_on_startup
+        issues a log message.
