+deluge (1.2.0~rc1-1) experimental; urgency=low
+
+  !!! Please read carefully: describing new Debian packages layout.
+
+  This new deluge release comes with a partial rewrite of the core application
+  (Twisted) and a complete rewrite of the web user-interface (Ext-Js and AJAX).
+  The format of some config/state files changed with this release (Json), so
+  please make a _backup_ of your ~/.config/deluge directory before starting the
+  application!
+
+  Deluge for Debian has been reworked in order to produce some new binary
+  packages and to fix the way they depend each other.
+  Now there is a single 'deluge-common' package which all the others depend on.
+  You can install the 'deluged' application (probably on a headless machine),
+  then use any of the three user-interfaces 'deluge-{console,web,gtk}' to
+  connect either to a local or remote running daemon.
+
+  The GTK+ user-interface is actually able to work in Classic Mode by running
+  the core application in the same program space (in other words, 'deluge-gtk'
+  doesn't depend on 'deluged').
+
+  Each package contains its equally named executable command, with the 'deluge'
+  package being the preferred choice for default desktop installations because
+  it depends on the GTK+ ui and contains the needed icons and desktop entries.
+  Please note that the /usr/bin/deluge executable provided by this package is
+  a configurable entry point which will start the default GTK+ user-interface
+  and is able to optionally set your default one.
+
+  Upgrade paths from the old 1.x and 0.5.x series have been tested and should
+  be working well, but please report any bug you may encounter.

+deluge (1.1.3.dfsg-1) experimental; urgency=low
+
+  Actually the licensing issue involving the source code implementing the
+  torrent creation feature has been solved by upstream.
+  This option is finally available through the GTK+ ui.

+
+deluge (1.1.2.dfsg-1) experimental; urgency=low
+
+  The torrent creation feature (only available when using the default GTK+ ui)
+  introduced with this release of deluge is currenty disabled due to a source
+  code licensing problem.
+  Please refer to README.source for further informations about repackaging.
