+  Zope 2.5 Beta 2
+
+    Bugs Fixed
+
+      - Unscrewed additions to the user folder API. There are three
+        new methods in the UserFolder API: userFolderAddUser, 
+        userFolderEditUser and userFolderDelUsers. These are
+        functionally identical (really just aliases) to the
+        _doAddUser, _doChangeUser and _doDelUsers methods of user
+        folder objects, with the exception that they can be called
+        from XML-RPC or scripting code (if the caller has the 'Manage
+        users' permission.
+
+        This is a change from beta 1, which had a botched
+        implementation of this with different names (that clashed with
+        some existing custom user folder implementations, and wasn't
+        backward compatible like it should have been).
+
+        Also, password encryption was taking place before the point
+        where custom user folders could intervene, which was wrong
+        since not all user folders can work with a pre-encrypted
+        password.
