   * 1.2.11 had its library version information incorrectly set. 
     This resulted in the shared library having an incorrect SONAME. 
     This release has been made to fix this problem.
+  * Fix issue with running AND, OR and XOR queries against a 
+    database with no documents in it - this was leading to a divide
+    by zero, which led to MSet::get_matches_estimated() reporting 
+    2147483648 on i386.
+  * Don't count unweighted subqueries of MultiAndPostList in 
+    percentage calculations, as OP_FILTER maps to MultiAndPostList
+    now.  (ticket#590)
+  * When compacting, if the output database is empty, don't write
+    out a metainfo tag.  Take care not to divide by zero when
+    computing the percentage size change for a table. 
+    (brass and chert backend)
+  * Add new QueryParser::STEM_ALL_Z stemming strategy, which 
+    stems all terms and adds a Z prefix.
+  * Add TermGenerator::set_stemming_strategy() method, with 
+    strategies which correspond to those of QueryParser.
+  * Correct "BM25Weight" to "TradWeight" in exception message 
+    from TradWeight.
+  * We were failing to call init() for user-defined Weight objects
+    providing the term-independent weight.  These now get called 
+    with init(0.0).
+  * Xapian::Auto::open_stub() now throws a Xapian::DatabaseOpeningError
+    exception if the stub file can't be opened.  Previously we 
+    failed to check for this condition, which resulted in us 
+    treating the file as empty.
