Hi,

2005-01-13  Mark Wielaard  <address@hidden>

        * configure.ac: Set version to 0.20.
        * NEWS: Add entries for all the new work done.

We are almost done. Sorry for all the omissions in the NEWS file.
Obviously a lot more has happened then what I summarized. Please do add
your own entries next time you added something cool. Reading a 215K
ChangeLog is fun, but a lot of work :)

Cheers,

Mark
