+                <h1>Mercurial version 0.8 for Windows</h1>
                 <p>Welcome to Mercurial for Windows!</p>
                 <p>Mercurial is a command-line application.  You must run it from
                   the Windows command prompt (or if you're hard core, a <a
                   href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW</a> shell).</p>
                 <p>For documentation, please visit the <a
             	href="http://www.selenic.com/mercurial">Mercurial web
             	site</a>.</p>
                 <p>By default, Mercurial installs to <tt>C:\Mercurial</tt>.  The
                   Mercurial command is called <tt>hg.exe</tt>.  To run this
                   command, the install directory must be in your search path.</p>
                 <h2>Setting your search path temporarily</h2>
                 <p>To set your search path temporarily, type the following into a
                   command prompt window:</p>
                 <pre>
             set PATH=C:\Mercurial;%PATH%
             </pre>
                 <h2>Setting your search path permanently</h2>
                 <p>To set your search path permanently, perform the following
                   steps.  These instructions are for Windows NT, 2000 and XP.</p>
                 <ol>
                   <li>Open the Control Panel.  Under Windows XP, select the
             	"Classic View".</li>
                   <li>Double-click on the "System" control panel.</li>
                   <li>Click on the "Advanced" tab.</li>
                   <li>Click on "Environment Variables".  You'll find this near the
             	bottom of the window.</li>
                   <li>Under "System variables", you will see "Path".  Double-click
             	it.</li>
                   <li>Edit "Variable value".  Each path element is separated by a
             	semicolon (";") character.  Append a semicolon to the end of the
             	list, followed by the path where you installed Mercurial
             	(e.g. <tt>C:\Mercurial</tt>).</li>
                   <li>Click on the various "OK" buttons until you've completely
             	exited from the System control panel.</li>
                   <li>Log out and log back in, or restart your system.</li>
                   <li>The next time you run the Windows command prompt, you will be
             	able to run the <tt>hg</tt> command without any special
             	help.</li>
                 </ol>
                 <h1>Testing Mercurial after you've installed it</h1>
                 <p>The easiest way to check that Mercurial is installed properly is to
                   just type the following at the command prompt:</p>
                 <pre>
             hg
             </pre>
                 <p>This command should print a useful help message.  If it does,
                   other Mercurial commands should work fine for you.</p>
                 <h1>Reporting problems</h1>

             Welcome to Mercurial for Windows!
             ---------------------------------
             For configuration and usage directions, please read the ReadMe.html
             file that comes with this package.
             Release Notes
             -------------
+-01-29  v0.8
+            * Upgrade notes:
+              - diff and status command are now repo-wide by default
+               (use 'hg diff .' for the old behavior)
+              - GPG signing is now done with the gpg extension
+              - the --text option for commit, rawcommit, and tag has been removed
+              - the copy/rename --parents option has been removed
+            * Major changes from 0.7 to 0.8:
+              - faster status, diff, and commit
+              - reduced memory usage for push and pull
+              - improved extension API
+              - new bisect, gpg, hgk, and win32text extensions
+              - short URLs, binary file handling, and optional gitweb skin for hgweb
+              - numerous new command options including log --keyword and pull --rev
+              - improved hooks and file filtering
 -09-21  v0.7 with modifications
             * New INI files have been added to control Mercurial's behaviour:
                 System-wide -  C:\Mercurial\Mercurial.ini
                 Per-user    -  C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Mercurial.ini
               A default version of the system-wide INI file is installed with
               Mercurial.  No per-user INI file is installed, but it will be
               honoured if you create one.
             * Windows line endings are now handled automatically and correctly by
               the update and commit commands.  See the INI file for how to
               customise this behaviour.
             * NOTE: Much of the rest of the Mercurial code does not handle Windows
               line endings properly.  Accordingly, the output of the diff command,
               for example, will appear huge until I fix this.
             * Packaged text files now have correct Windows line endings.
 -09-21  v0.7 with modifications
             * This is the first standalone release of Mercurial for Windows.
             * I believe it to be mostly functional, with one exception: there is
               no support yet for DOS <-> Unix line ending conversion.
