WHAT'S NEW
============
1- serials

Online help is documented, and work fine.
The serial module contains :
* create a subscription.

* remind the librarian when the subscription expires.
* deals with complex formulas to calculate issue number.
* show subscriptions summaries in librarian interface and OPAC, with differents
informations.
2- bugfixes

FUTURE
==========
The next release will probably be 2.2RC1.
It should contains :
* bugfixes.
* some new code for a better LDAP handling (automatic creation of the borrower
if it does not exist, getting informations from LDAP directory)
* a barcode generator ! it's a new feature that should be commited by a new
developper coming from south america (argentina). I've seen the code, it's
clean & nice. Just a new dependencay, for PDF generating. Should be non
mandatory for ppl that don't want to print barcodes.

UPDATE from a 2.1.x version is NOT AVAILABLE. Don't install 2.1.2 on a 2.1.x
test database. A lot of DB changes have been done since 2.1.x & could not be
handled by the DB updater.
============
WHAT'S NEW
============
* Barcode printing : a barcode printing module has been added in the
"parameters" module. It requires PDF::API2 Perl module. this requirement is NOT
tested by the installer, and will be non-mandatory on official 2.2.0 release.
* A lot of bugfixes. The list is too long to be done.
This "snapshot" is a good basis for translation process. Feel free to subscribe
to koha-translate and become involved in a localisation to your own language.
===========
WHAT'S NEXT
===========
This version is quite stable. The next one should be called "2.2.0RC1".
It still requires some work in LDAP handling.
