+Partially-edited list of all changes after 1.10.0 and up-to cf9b3828

+(hopefully) includes all tickets closed during this time, even minor
+non-user-visible ones.
+
+UI / Configuration Changes
+--------------------------
+
+The "tahoe cp" CLI command's "--recursive" option is now more predictable,
+but behaves slightly differently than before. See below for details. #712
+#2329
+
+The SFTP server can now use public-key authentication (instead of only
+password-based auth). Public keys are configured through an "account file",
+just like passwords are. See docs/frontends/FTP-and-SFTP for examples of the
+format. #1411
+
+The Tahoe node can now be configured to disable automatic IP-address
+detection. Using "AUTO" in tahoe.cfg [node]tub.location= (which is now the
+default) triggers autodetection. Simply edit the value to omit "AUTO" to
+disable autodetection. "AUTO" can be combined with static addresses to e.g.
+use both a stable UPnP-configured tunneled address with a DHCP-assigned
+dynamic (local-subnet-only) address. See configuration.rst for details. #754
+
+The web-based user interface ("WUI") Directory and Welcome pages have been
+redesigned, with improved CSS for narrow windows and more-accessible icons
+(using distinctive shapes instead of just colors). #1931 #1961 #1966 #1972

-- "tahoe cp" changes:
+"tahoe cp" changes
+------------------
There are many "cp"-like tools in the unix world (POSIX /bin/cp, the "scp"
provided by SSH, rsync). They each behave slightly differently in unusual
In 1.10.1, following the new rule of "a named directory source refers to
the directory itself", the tool creates "./local/missing/dir/file.txt".
+Packaging
+---------
+
+Preliminary OS-X and Windows packages are now being generated. The OS-X
+installer is named "tahoe-lafs-VERSION-osx.pkg" and is a standard
+double-clickable installer, which installs an /Applications/tahoe.app that
+embeds a complete runtime tree. However launching the .app only brings up
+docs on how to run tahoe from the command line. A future release will turn
+this into a fully-fledged application launcher. The Windows package is even
+more preliminary. #182 #2393 #2323
+
+Preliminary Docker support was added. Tahoe container images may be available
+on DockerHub. PR#165
+
+Old/obsolete debian packaging tools have been removed. #2282
Compatibility and Dependency Updates
------------------------------------
+Windows now requires python2.7 . Unix platforms can use either 2.6 or 2.7.
+
- Twisted >= 13.0.0
- Nevow >= 0.11.1
- foolscap >= 0.8.0
Tahoe-LAFS is now compatible with setuptools version 8 and pip version 6
or later.
+Tahoe-LAFS now depends upon foolscap-0.8.0, which creates better private keys
+and certificates than previous versions (2048-bit RSA keys and SHA256-based
+certificates). To benefit from the improved keys, you must re-generate your
+Tahoe nodes (which changes their TubIDs and FURLs). #2400
Release 1.10.0 (2013-05-01)
