 Introduction
 ------------
 
-The Apache Jackrabbit project is an effort to build and maintain
-an open source implementation of the Content Repository for Java
-Technology API (JCR) specified in the Java Specification Request 170
-(JSR-170). The project also produces a various tools and components
-related to the JCR API.
-
-Apache Jackrabbit 1.1 is an incremental release that fixes
-a number of issues and introduces some new features. The most
-notable changes in this release include the  See the
-included change history for details.
-
-See the Apache Jackrabbit website at http://jackrabbit.apache.org/
-for more information.
-
+Apache Jackrabbit is a fully conforming implementation of the Content
+Repository for Java Technology API (JCR). A content repository is a
+hierarchical content store with support for structured and unstructured
+content, full text search, versioning, transactions, observation, and
+more. Typical applications that use content repositories include content
+management, document management, and records management systems.
+
+Apache Jackrabbit 1.3 is an incremental feature release. The most notable
+changes in this release are support for query result highlighting,
+performance improvements thanks to a new bundle persistence manager,
+and a new classloader component for loading Java classes from a content
+repository. Many smaller improvements and bug fixes are also included.
+
+See the Apache Jackrabbit website at http://jackrabbit.apache.org/ for more
+information.

+Upgrading to Jackrabbit 1.3
+---------------------------
 
-Upgrading from 1.0
-------------------
-
-Apache Jackrabbit 1.1 is fully compatible with the 1.0 release. An
-Apache Jackrabbit 1.0 installation can be upgraded by replacing
+Apache Jackrabbit 1.3 is fully compatible with the previous 1.x releases.
+A previous Apache Jackrabbit 1.x installation can be upgraded by replacing
 the relevant jar files with the new versions. No changes to repository
 contents are needed.
 
+See below for a more detailed description of the structural changes in
+the Apache Jackrabbit 1.2 release.
 
-Known Issues
-------------
+Upgrading to Jackrabbit 1.2
+---------------------------
 
-The known issues in this release are listed below:
+The most notable effect of the component restructuring in the 1.2 release
+was that the previous jackrabbit-core component has been split in three
+pieces: jackrabbit-api, jackrabbit-jcr-commons, and jackrabbit-core. Thus
+you need to replace the previous jackrabbit-core-1.x.jar file with the
+three new jar archives.
+
+The structure of the WebDAV components have also changed. WebDAV support
+now consists of the webapp component jackrabbit-webapp and the libraries
+jackrabbit-webdav and jackrabbit-jcr-server.
+
+The Apache Lucene dependency used for full text indexing has been upgraded
+to version 2.0 in this release. Lucene 2.0 is able to continue using
+existing index files, but you can also manually recreate the index with
+Lucene 2.0 extensions by removing the "index" directories of a closed
+repository. Jackrabbit will automatically re-index content when the
+repository is next started.
+
+Also the Apache Derby dependency has been upgraded to version 10.2.
+Like Lucene, the new Derby version can keep using existing database files.
+New repositories and workspaces will however be created using extensions
+and improvements introduced in the 10.2 version.
