 New features and fixed bugs in this release
 -------------------------------------------
 
-preview-latex is compatible with Ghostscript 9.22 where the
-operator '.runandhide' is removed.  All occurrences of
-'.runandhide' in preview-latex are replaced by alternative code
-making it work with Ghostscript 9.22 again.
+AUCTeX now requires GNU Emacs 24 or higher.  Support for XEmacs has
+been dropped.
 
-AUCTeX has a new customize option
-'TeX-math-input-method-off-regexp'.  When you begin to input a math
-formula, the current input method is turned off if its name matches
-this regular expression.
-
-In fact this variable was introduced long before, but has not been
-documented in info files nor turned into a customize option with
-'defcustom' until this release.
-
-The window system focus is pulled back to Emacs when viewing with
-evince-compatible viewers if a new customize option
-'TeX-view-evince-keep-focus' is non-nil.
-
-The usual dose of bug fixes was administered.
+Besides the change in the supported version of Emacs, there has
+been no functional change in this release, which is equivalent to
+version 11.92.
 
 Requirements
 ------------
 
-It is required that you use at least GNU Emacs 21 or XEmacs 21.4.
-XEmacs requires at least version 1.84 of the xemacs-base package
-(released on 01/27/2004) or a sumo tarball dated 02/02/2004 or newer
-for compiling AUCTeX: please use the XEmacs package system for
-upgrading if necessary.
+It is required that you use at least GNU Emacs 24.
 
-The preview-latex subsystem requires image support.  This is available
-with GNU Emacs 21.3 under the X window system.  For Windows[2], Mac OS
-X (Carbon, Cocoa)[3] or native GTK+ toolkit support, at least version
-22.1 of GNU Emacs is required.  Emacs 22 and later is the recommended
-platform for AUCTeX in general.  If you prefer XEmacs, it will work in
-version 21.4.10 or later.
+The preview-latex subsystem requires image support.
 
 You'll also need a working LaTeX installation and Ghostscript.

-NOTE: This will be the last release in the 11 series.  Version 12 of
-AUCTeX, which is due to come in a few days, will support only GNU
-Emacs 24 or higher.
