                               ============
 
-Changes since 3.34:   * Redesigned `xscreensaver-demo' GUI.
+Changes since 4.00:   * New hacks: `twang', `glsnake', `boxed', `sballs',
+                        and `glforestfire'.
+                      * New hacks `apollonian', `euler2d', `juggle',
+                        `polyominoes' and `thornbird', from xlockmore.
+                      * Merged recent xlockmore changes into `ant', `braid',
+                        `demon', `discrete', `drift', `fadeplot', `forest',
+                        `grav', `hopalong', `ifs', `laser', `lightning',
+                        `lisa', `lissie', `loop', `mountain', `penrose',
+                        `rotor', `sierpinski', `slip', `sphere', `spiral',
+                        `strange', and `vines'.
+                      * Fixed the `gltext' bug that sometimes caused
+                        horizontal lines to vanish again.  This time for sure.
+                      * Sped up `webcollage' by adding a C helper program to
+                        replace the PPM pipeline.  It also pastes images
+                        semi-transparently now.
+                      * Added support for the gdk_pixbuf library: if this lib
+                        is available, then `blitspin', `xflame', and `flag'
+                        can load GIF, JPEG, and PNG images in addition to XPM
+                        and XBM.
+                      * Fixed a rare race condition where the desktop-grabbing
+                        hacks could sometimes leave the screen wedged, if the
+                        user moved the mouse exactly when they were grabbing
+                        the screen image (it would un-wedge the next time the
+                        saver timed out or was activated.)
+                      * Fixed incorrect colors in the screen-grabbing GL hacks
+                        (`gflux' and `flipscreen3d'.)
+                      * Made SIGHUP restart the daemon process (though using
+                        `xscreensaver-command -restart' is still the preferred
+                        way.)
+                      * Tweaks to `xspirograph'.
+                      * Minor configure and portability tweaks.
+Changes since 3.34:   * Redesigned `xscreensaver-demo' GUI: it now includes
+                        small-preview and per-hack configuration dialogs.
                       * Added three new modes of operation: `One Screen Saver',
                         `Blank Screen', and `Don't Blank' (in addition to the
                         historical `Random Screen Saver').
