+debhelper (2.1.0) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * I started work on debhelper v2 over a year ago, with a long list of
+ changes I hoped to get in that broke backwards compatability. That
+ development stalled after only the most important change was made,
+ although I did get out over 100 releases in the debhelper 2.0.x tree.
+ In the meantime, lots of packages have switched to using v2, despite my
+ warnings that doing so leaves packages open to being broken without
+ notice until v2 is complete.
+ * Therefore, I am calling v2 complete, as it is. Future non-compatabile
+ changes will happen in v3, which will be started soon. This means that
+ by using debhelper v2, one major thing changes: debhelper uses
+ debian/<package> as the temporary directory for *all* packages;
+ debian/tmp is no longer used to build binary packages out of. This is
+ very useful for multi-binary packages, and I reccommend everyone
+ switch to v2.
+ * Updated example rules files to use v2 by default.
+ * Updated all documentation to assume that v2 is being used.
+ * Added a few notes for people still using v1.
+ * Moved all of the README into debhelper(1).
