+Changes in Thuban 1.1.0
+=======================
+
+ - Thuban rembers directories in file selection dialogs during a thuban
+   session
+
+ - Add some support for wxPython 2.5 and 2.6.  Thuban is still
+   compatible with wxPython 2.4.
+
+ - Change the way thuban deals with non-ascii text.  The internal
+   representation is now the user's default encoding.  Thuban works a
+   bit better with a unicode build of wxPython but there are still
+   problems.  (Bernhard Herzog)
+
+ - Various raster data improvements.  Among other things, translucent
+   images are now supported on a sufficiently recent wxWidgets (2.6).
+   Also, only the part of the window actually covered by the image is
+   drawn.  (Jonathan Coles)
+
+ - Improved PostGIS support (Bernhard Herzog):
+
+    - support tables with multiple geometry columns.  The user can
+      select which one to use
+
+    - support tables with srids
+
+    - tables don't have to have a column named "gid" anymore.  The user
+      can select the column to use for ids
+
+    - PostgreSQL views are supported too
+
+    - support LINESTRING geometries
+
+    - support more PostgreSQL versions.  7.4 works now.
+
+ - Added support for sizable points (Jan-Oliver Wagner)
+
+ - When loading a (moved) session where shapefiles cannot be found, ask
+   the user (Frank Koormann)
+
+ - The middle mouse button can be used for panning now (Russell Nelson)
+
+ - Give a warning when the projection selected for a layer is probably
+   wrong (Russell Nelson)
+
+ - Updated shapelib

+ - New or improved extensions:
+
+    - A new extension which exports a map as SVG 
+      (Markus Rechtien, Bernhard Reiter)

+    - New Extension to dump bounding boxes of all shapes of the selected
+      layer (Frank Koormann)

+
+    - New extension: OGR (Nina Hüffmeyer)
+
+    - New Extension: mouseposition. Tool to collect mouse click positions
+      (map coordinates) in a dialog.  (Frank Koormann)
+
+ - Documentation:
+
+    - Add some documentation of the internals of Thuban.
+      See Doc/technotes/
+
+    - The thuban manual has been partly translated to German 
+      (Jan-Oliver Wagner)

+       Russian (Alex Shevlakov)
