+Changes between JOGL 1.0.0 and 1.1.0:
+
+ - The glext.h and associated header files JOGL uses have been updated
+   to OpenGL 2.1 with NVidia's GeForce 8 series extensions. The new
+   functions are available as methods in the GL interface.
+
+ - The developer build bundles have been changed to zip archives, so
+   instead of having to download multiple jars, you can now just
+   download the zip archive for your particular platform. The new zip
+   archives are versioned with the build date.
+
+ - The source distribution now contains the generated sources like
+   GL.java, GLU.java, etc. for more convenient use in IDEs.
+
+ - The chosen GLCapabilities are now exposed from the GLDrawable via
+   GLDrawable.getChosenGLCapabilities(); this functionality works on
+   all platforms even in cases where the GLCapabilitiesChooser is not
+   supported, and attempts to provide correct answers so programs can
+   make decisions based on the results.
+
+ - The native code for the "DRI hack" (to support the open-source DRI
+   drivers on Linux and other X11 platforms) has been removed; JOGL
+   now uses the GlueGen NativeLibrary class for this purpose.
+
+ - The GlueGen runtime classes have been removed from jogl.jar. These
+   have been factored out into gluegen-rt.jar and are referenced by
+   both the JOGL and JOAL projects.
+
+ - The JOGL applet launcher now supports deployment of applets which
+   use both OpenGL for 3D graphics via JOGL as well as OpenAL for
+   spatialized audio via JOAL. It has been updated for the changes in
+   the GlueGen runtime classes and native library structure. Some bugs
+   have been fixed, some of which were preventing different JOGL-based
+   applets from being deployed from the same codebase. The applet
+   launcher has been updated for the change in native library
+   structure. The documentation and on-line examples have been updated
+   as well.
+
+ - Various bug fixes were made to the GlueGen runtime and JOGL
+   implementation.
