+This section is for behavioral changes to the models that were not due to a bug fix.
 <ul>
   <li> The default value of the `Speed` attribute of ConstantSpeedPropagationDelayModel was changed from 300,000,000 m/s to 299,792,458 m/s (speed of light in a vacuum), causing propagation delays using this model to vary slightly.
   </li>
+  <li> The LrWpanHelper object was previously instantiating only a LogDistancePropagationLossModel on a SingleModelSpectrumChannel, but no PropagationDelayModel.  The constructor now adds by default a ConstantSpeedPropagationDelayModel.

 New user-visible features
 -------------------------
-- It is now possible to print the Neighbor Cache (ARP and NDISC) by using
-  the RoutingProtocolHelper
-- The PrintRoutingTable... and PrintNeighborCache... are now static funtions
-  i.e., it's not anymore needed to instantiate an helper just to use them.
-- A new TimeProbe class has been added to hook the data collection framework
-  to traced values emitting Time objects
-- In previous releases of the LTE module, the bearer release
+- (wifi) Support for MPDU aggregation has been added to the wifi model, 
+  as well as a number of related example programs.
+- (wifi) PARF and APARF WiFi rate controls have been added to the wifi model.
+- (lte) In previous releases of the LTE module, the bearer release
   functionality was only partially supported. As an enhancement, a
   complete release bearer procedure is now implemented, which can be
   invoked by calling the new helper method
   LteHelper::DeActivateDedicatedEpsBearer(). The related output can be
   seen through the stats collected at different layers like PDCP, RLC,
-  MAC, PHY. To support this implementation, example and test suite is
+  MAC, PHY. To support this implementation, an example and test suite is
   added within the LTE module examples and tests folder.  
-
+- (wave) Support for WiFi-based vehicular communications using the 
+  IEEE 1609.4 framework has been added.  A Basic Safety Message (BSM) 
+  application packet generator, and associated statistics counters, has
+  been added.  A comprehensive VANET routing example has been added.
+- (internet) It is now possible to print the Neighbor Cache (ARP and NDISC) 
+  by using the RoutingProtocolHelper
+- (stats) A new TimeProbe class has been added to hook the data collection 
+  framework to traced values emitting Time objects
+- (documentation) the callback function signatures for all TraceSources
+  is documented in Doxygen
