 <h2>The checklist</h2>
 
 <pre>
+3.5.7.0                    Aug 02
+
+     - Packages no longer have to ask permission to call MAKEDEV in
+       postinst, merely notifying the user ought to be enough.
+     - cryptographic software may now be included in the main
+       archive. 
+     - task packages are now not permitted; tasks are now created by a
+       special Tasks: field in the control file.
+     - window managers that support netwm now can added 20 points when
+       they add themselves as an alternative for
+       /usr/bin/x-window-manager
+     - There are new rules for build-indep/build-arch targets and
+       there is a new Build-Depend-Indep semantic. These were actually
+       introduced in 3.5.6, but I forgot to mention them here.
+     - The default compilation options have now changed, one should
+       provide debugging symbols in all cases, and optionally step
+       back optimization to -O0, depending on the DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS
+       environment variable.
+     - Added mention of build-arch, build-indep, etc, in describing
+       the relationships with `Build-Depends', `Build-Conflicts',
+       `Build-Depends-Indep', and `Build-Conflicts-Indep'. May need to
+       review the new rules. 
+     - Changed rules on how, and when, to invoke ldconfig in maintiner
+       scripts. Long rationale.
+
 3.5.6.0                    Jul 01
 
      - Emacs and TeX are no longer mandated by policy to be priority
