+Changes from 0.6.0 to 0.6.1:
+
+  * Statistical bug fixes:
+
+    - Report correct standardized regression coefficients in linear
+      regression output (bug #23567).

+    - Don't crash if "end data." is not left aligned (bug #24115).

+      (bug #23137).

+      #24033).
+
+    - A POSIX regular expression library is now included and used
+      automatically if the host does not have one or has one that is
+      inadequate.
+
+  * Build fixes and changes:
+
+    - Work around bug in GSL that prevented build with recent GCC
+      versions without manually adding -fgnu89-inline to CFLAGS.
+
+    - Also warn about missing prerequisites as we encounter them (bug
+      #24445).
+
+    - Distribute necessary files to allow users working from the
+      distributed tarball to configure with --enable-gui-tools.
+
+    - Append $(EXEEXT_FOR_BUILD) to output file name when building
+      q2c, fixing build problems on Windows.
+
+    - GSL 1.8 or later is now required.
+
+    - Build errors with --enable-relocatable were fixed.
+
+  * The German translations were removed, since native German speakers
+    found them too poor to be useful.
+
+Changes from 0.4.0 to 0.6.0:
 
   * The PSPP license is now version 3 or later of the GNU General
     Public License.  Previously, it was version 2 or later.
