-The major additions are:
-	- Basic frontend
-	- New codegenerator
-	- LL(1) parser generator
-	- Vax backend with 4-byte wordsize
-	- Motorola 68000 backend with 4-byte wordsize
-	- Motorola 68000 interpreter for 2- and 4-byte wordsize
-	- Z8000 assembler and backend.
-	- 6805 assembler
-	- NatSem 16032 assembler
-	- Intel 8080 backend
-	- Zilog Z80 backend
-	- Signetics 2650 assembler
+The major changes are:
+	- a new C-compiler and runtime system
+	- a new C preprocessor
+	- new assembler framework, allowing the generation of relocatable
+	  object code for most processors
+	- new versions of all assemblers, using the new assembler framework
+	- a new link-editor, linking is now a separate and fast phase for most
+	  machines
+	- improved Pascal compiler, now also handles 4-byte wordsize
+	- Motorola M68020 backend and assembler
