-alternc (0.9.10) stable; urgency=low
-
-  * I have moved back the PHP sessions in the /var/alternc directory to
-    facilitate sharing sessions between NFS-mounted nodes. This overrides
-    the default /var/lib/php5 and adds a cronjob that replicates the
-    manual session garbage collection the PHP package is doing.
-    
-    Note that existing sessions are not migrated.

-alternc (0.9.9) stable; urgency=low
-
-    Starting with 0.9.9, we do not overwrite Postfix's main.cf directly
-    (#1029). However, some settings are directly overwritten, using
-    postconf -e (as per Debian Policy). Those settings are configured in
-    /etc/alternc/postfix.cf and are therefore managed as a configuration
-    file which means that your configuration changes will be preserved.
-    
-    Also, this is the last release that will overwrite the main Bind
-    configuration file (named.conf). All changes will be performed in
-    named.conf.options in the future. This release still installs a new
-    named.conf that will make sure that this transition functions
-    properly. See #1025 and #1104.
-    
-    We also got rid of the bind_internal parameter. This configuration is
-    not recommended as it allows recursive queries on an authoritative
-    nameserver. The 'internal' ACL can still be changed in a template if
-    required. Similarly, we now let the mynetworks configuration in
-    Postfix up to the administrator and do not prompt for it directly
-    through AlternC.
-
-    We now support Apache2 out of the box, but it's not the default
-    platform deployed. To install AlternC with Apache2, you will need a
-    commandline like this:
-    
-        apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-php5 alternc
-    
-    Note, however, that this doesn't take care of removing the existing
-    apache1 installation. This is a more complex operation that must be
-    performed with a complete package manager like aptitude or synaptic.
