=== Zope/doc/CHANGES.txt 1.434 => 1.434.2.1 ===
         table.
 
+      - TextIndex: Enhanced splitter functionality now allows the
+        TextIndex to index numbers, single characters. It is also 
+        possible to enable case-sensitive indexing. The new 
+        configuration options are available through the addForm
+        of the Vocabulary object.
+
+      - ICP server support. For more information see
+        http://www.zope.org/Members/htrd/icp/intro
+
+      - STXNG: added new env. variable STX_DEFAULT_LEVEL to change
+        the default level for <Hx> elements (see doc/ENVIRONMENT.txt)
+
+      - Collector #304: several catalog optimisations
+        
+      - New implementation of ZODB object cache.
+
     Bugs:
 
+      - Fixed bug reported on maillist during EWOULDBLOCK when using FTP server
+        (http:// lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope/2002-March/111521.html).
+
+      - App/FindHomes.py now computes the "real" path for SOFTWARE_HOME and
+        INSTANCE_HOME, resolving any symlinks in any element within paths
+        passed in via the INSTANCE_HOME or SOFTWARE_HOME envvars.  Paths that
+        are computed by "dead reckoning" from os.getcwd and module paths are
+        also "realpathed".  So for instance, if you use '/home/chrism/Instance'
+        as your INSTANCE_HOME, and '/home/chrism' is a symlink to
+        '/other/home/chrism', your INSTANCE_HOME will be computed as
+        '/other/home/chrism/Instance'.  This is necessary to avoid
+        weirdnesses while using "dead reckoning" from INSTANCE_HOME and
+        SOFTWARE_HOME in other parts of the code.  POSIX systems only.
+
+      - Fixed PropertyManager/PropertySheets so that you can safely add a
+        property named 'ids' without breaking your properties page.
+
+      - Removed spurious 'self' from scarecrow interfaces;  updated
+        method-generation in Interface package to ignore self when
+        source is a method (rather than a function).
+
       - Collector #32: Use difflib instead of ndiff
 
       - Fixed long standing bug in PythonScript where get_size returned
@@ -93,6 +130,24 @@
 
       - Collector #285: Zope changes its working directory
         to the var directory at startup
+
+      - WebDAV: removing an non-existing property now returns a HTTP
+        200-OK response instead of 404 (now compliant with RFC 2518)
+
+      - Fixed a bug in TM.py that would cause database adapters to hang
+        on errors in the second phase of the two-phase commit.
+
+      - Collector #291: ZCatalog not unindexing deleted properties
+
+      - Collector #266: Retried requests losing track of http request
+        headers, causing Connection:Close requests to stall
+
+      - Collector #17: Fixed broken links in StandardCacheManagers help
+
+      - Collector #1: UNIX security fixes: make starting Zope as 'root'
+        secure, stop using 'nobody', warn of insecure umasks
+
+      - Collector #303: Properties of type 'long' got truncated
