+Changes from ns-3.19 to ns-3.20
+New API:
+
+ - Models have been added for low-rate, wireless personal area networks
+(LR-WPAN) as specified by IEEE standard 802.15.4 (2006). The current
+emphasis is on the unslotted mode of 802.15.4 operation for use in Zigbee,
+and the scope is limited to enabling a single mode (CSMA/CA) with basic
+data transfer capabilities. Association with PAN coordinators is not yet
+supported, nor the use of extended addressing. Interference is modeled as
+AWGN but this is currently not thoroughly tested. The NetDevice Tx queue
+is not limited, i.e., packets are never dropped due to queue becoming full.
+They may be dropped due to excessive transmission retries or channel access
+failure.
+ - A new IPv6 routing protocol has been added: RIPng. This protocol is
+ an Interior Gateway Protocol and it is available in the Internet module.
+ - A new LTE MAC downlink scheduling algorithm named Channel and QoS
+ Aware (CQA) Scheduler is provided by the new "ns3::CqaFfMacScheduler" object.
+
+ - Units may be attached to Time objects, to facilitate specific output
+ formats (see Time::As())
+ - FlowMonitor "SerializeToXml" functions are now directly available
+ from the helper.
+ - Access to OLSR's HNA table has been enabled
+
+
+Changes to existing API:
+
+ - The SixLowPan model can now use uncompressed IPv6 headers. An option to
+ define the minimum compressed packet size has been added.
+ - MinDistance wsa replaced by MinLoss in FriisPropagationLossModel, to
+ better handle conditions outside of the assumed far field region.
+
+
+Changes to build system:
+
+ - Python 3.3 is now supported for Python bindings for ns-3. Python 3.3
+ support for API scanning is not supported. Python 3.2 is not supported.
+ - Enable selection of high precision int64x64_t implementation
+ at configure time, for debugging purposes.
+ - Optimized builds are now enabling signed overflow optimization
+ (-fstrict-overflow) and for gcc 4.8.2 and greater, also warning for cases
+ where an optimizization may occur due to compiler assumption that
+ overflow will not occur.
+
+
+Changed behavior:
+
+ - The Internet FlowMonitor can now track IPv6 packets.
+ - Ipv6Extension::m_dropTrace has been removed. Ipv6L3Protocol::m_dropTrace
+ is now fired when appropriate.
+ - IPv4 identification field value is now dependent on the protocol
+ field.
+ - Point-to-point trace sources now contain PPP headers
