+OpenRC NEWS
+
+This file will contain a list of notable changes for each release.
+
+OpenRC-0.13.2
+=============
+The netmount service now mounts nfs file systems.
+This change was made to correct a fix for an earlier bug.
+
+OpenRC-0.13
+===========
+
+/sbin/rc was renamed to /sbin/openrc and /sbin/runscript was renamed to
+/sbin/openrc-run due to naming conflicts with other software.
+
+Backward compatible symbolic links are currently in place so your
+system will keep working if you are using the old names; however, it is
+strongly advised that you migrate to the new names because the symbolic
+links will be removed in the future.
+Warnings have been added to assist with this migration; however, due to the
+level of noise they produce, they only appear in verbose mode in this release.
+
+The devfs script now handles the initial mounting and setup of the
+/dev directory. If /dev has already been mounted by the kernel or an
+initramfs, devfs will remount /dev with the correct mount options
+instead of mounting a second /dev over the existing mount point.
+
+It attempts to mount /dev from fstab first if an entry exists there. If
+it doesn't it attempts to mount devtmpfs if it is configured in the
+kernel. If not, it attempts to mount tmpfs.
+If none of these is available, an error message is displayed and static
+/dev is assumed.
+
+OpenRC-0.12
+===========
+
+The net.* scripts, originally from Gentoo Linux, have
+been removed. If you need these scripts, look for a package called
+netifrc, which is maintained by them.
