+changes in version 1.6.
Known limitations and bugs:
---------------------------
-[add main limitations and known bugs here]
+* Possible binary compatibility problem: We've had a big internal
+ restructuration: we have moved all the non public API classes to java
+ packages with the name "internal". As a result of this change you may
+ need in some cases to rebuild your code with the new cactus jar in the
+ classpath.
+* Due to the internal package restructuration, the jspredirector.jsp file
+ was modified. If you have installed this file manually somewhere, you'll
+ need to remember to update it with the new version.
+* List of known bugs are available on http://tinyurl.com/3edgv
