+Beta Release 0.1.3 (XX April, 2009)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Notable changes in SAMtools:
+
+ * SAMtools is more consistent with the specification: a) '*' in the
+ QUAL field is allowed; b) the field separator is TAB only and SPACE
+ is treated as a character in a field; c) empty header is allowed.
+
+ * Implemented GLFv3 support in pileup.
+
+ * Fixed a severe bug in fixmate: strand information is wrongly
+ overwritten.
+
+ * Fixed a bug in alignment retrieval: alignments bridging n*16384bp are
+ not correctly retrieved sometimes.
+
+ * Move indel_filter.pl to samtools.pl and improved the filtering by
+ checking the actual number of alignments containing indels. The indel
+ pileup line is also changed a little to make this filtration easier.
+
+ * Fixed a minor bug in indexing: the bin number of an unmapped read is
+ wrongly calculated.
+
+ * Added `flagstat' command to show statistics on the FLAG field.
+
+ * Improved indel caller by setting the maximum window size in local
+ realignment.
+
+Changes in other utilities:
+
+ * Fixed a bug in maq2sam: a tag name is obsolete.
+
+ * Improvement to wgsim: a) added support for SOLiD read simulation; b)
+ show the number of substitutions/indels/errors in read name; c)
+ considerable code clean up.
+
+ * Various converters: improved functionality in general.
