+1.3.1 (6/21/2008)
+  + New configuration variable, "defaultwidth" that determines the width
+    of tables when ncurses support is not available
+  + Bug: "showage" configuration variable should apply to all reports, not
+    just the ones based on "list"
+  + Bug: Fixed segmentation faults on Ubuntu when the "dateformat"

+                  Upgrading task to version 1.1.0, 1.2.0 and 1.3.0 can cause
+                  segmentation faults.  This is mostly occurring for Ubuntu users,
+                  although there is no reason for it to be limited to Ubuntu.
+                </p>
+
+                <p>
+                  Task 1.3.1 fixes this bug, but there is a workaround for users
+                  of earlier versions.  Add the following line to your ~/.taskrc
+                  file:
+                </p>
+
+                <code><pre>dateformat=m/d/Y</pre></code>
+

+                  The "Age" column that shows up on several reports is proving
+                  to be unpopular.  In task 1.2.0 and later, here is how to
+                  remove it from the reports - make sure you have the line:
+                </p>
+
+                <code><pre>showage=no</pre></code>
+
+                <p>
+                  in your ~/.taskrc file.
+
+                  Note that the "task long" report does not obey this setting

+                <p>
+                  Task is built the same way everywhere.  But under Cygwin, you'll
+                  need to make sure you have the following packages available
+                  first:
+
+                  <ul>
+                    <li>gcc
+                    <li>make
+                    <li>libncurses-devel
+                    <li>libncurses8
+                  </ul>
+
+                  The gcc and make packages allow you to compile the code, and
+                  are therefore required, but the ncurses packages are optional.
+                  Ncurses will allow task to determine the width of the window, and
+                  therefore use the whole width and wrap text accordingly, for a
+                  more aesthetically pleasing display.
