+- Update to 1.4.17:
+  + API:
+    * Database::get_average_length(): Add this as an alias for Database::get_avlen().
+      In git master we've added this as a preferred new name - adding it to 1.4.x too
+      will make it easier for users to update to using this.
+    * Database::get_spelling_suggestion(): Optimise edit distance initialisation
+      loop to significantly reduce the cost of a typical edit distance calculation.
+    * Fix query expansion on sharded databases.  The mechanism for passing in which
+      shard a TermList is from wasn't hooked up and as a result we'd always think
+      it's from the first shard, meaning the statistics would be wrong and that our
+      suggested terms may not have been as good as they should be in this
+      situation.
+    * Enquire::get_eset(): Use string::compare() to avoid 1/3 of the string compares
+      on average.
+  + documentation:
+    * Update doxygen HTML headers and footers to resolve issues with some
+      interactive features of the API docs not working.  Reported by Enrico Zini.
+    * Stop specifying obsolete doxygen settings PERL_PATH and MSCGEN_PATH.
+    * Clarify API docs for MSet::get_termfreq() to make it clear that this
+      considers all documents in the database, not only those that matched the
+      searched (it would sometimes be useful to be able to report the number of
+      occurrences of a term in the matched documents, but it's not something we
+      currently keep track of).  Reported by Tadeusz Sośnierz and Peter Salomonsen.
