 - Update to 1.4.7:
-  * Database::check(): Fix bogus error reports for documents with length zero due to a new check added in 1.4.6.
-  * Query: Use of Query::MatchAll in multithreaded code causes problems because the reference counting gets messed up by concurrent updates.
-  * Stemming algorithms added for Irish, Lithuanian, Nepali and Tamil
+  * API:
+    + Database::check(): Fix bogus error reports for documents with length
+      zero due to a new check added in 1.4.6 that the doclength was between the
+      stored upper and lower bounds, which failed to allow for the lower bound
+      ignoring documents with length zero (since documents indexed only by
+      boolean terms aren't involved in weighted searches).
+
+    + Query: Use of Query::MatchAll in multithreaded code causes problems
+      because the reference counting gets messed up by concurrent updates.
+      Document that Query(string()) should be used instead of MatchAll in
+      multithreaded code, and avoid using it in library code.
+
+  * Stem:
+    + Stemming algorithms added for Irish, Lithuanian, Nepali and Tamil.
+    + Merge Snowball compiler changes which improve code generation.
+    + Merge optimisations to the Arabic and Turkish stemmers.
+
+  * testsuite:
+    + Fix duplicate test in apitest closedb10 testcase.
+
