==============================================================
-Luatex beta-0.70.1 was released 20110519
+Luatex beta-0.75.0 was released 20130301
+==============================================================
+
+News:
+
+* New expandable primitive \Uchar.
+
+* Metapost 1.790.
+
+* New version of lnodelib.c with speedups by Hans and Luigi.
+ Also added some extra sanity checks to the Lua node field
+ setting functions.
+
+* Support 'umath' in tex.extraprimitives(), so that formats can
+ make the \Umath* primitives unprefixed, now that they will be
+ provided by XeTeX as well.
+
+* Removed a bunch of deprecated primitives
+ * \AlephVersion, \Alephrevision, \Alephversion, \Alephminorversion
+ * \OmegaVersion, \Omegarevision, \Omegaversion, \Omegaminorversion
+ * \omathcode, \odelcode, \omathchardef, \omathchar, \omathaccent,
+ \odelimiter, \oradical
+ * \Umathbotaccent, \Umathaccents
+
+* Fix large file support.
+
+* Fix Lua's loadfile().
+
+* Removed the cidmap callbacks again (let that be done by user lua
+ code after the fact).
+
+* Removed the fatal error on fonts where num_glyphs is too high,
+ as that problem is actually harmless.
+
+* Some compilation issues under Win32 and Solaris resolved.
+
+* Allow math extender objects to be zero width.
+
+* The 'epdf' library has been extended to deal with finding and
+ saving embedded files (catalog:numEmbeddedFiles() and catalog:
+ embeddedFile, new EmbFile object).

+==============================================================
+
+News:
+
+* lua 5.2
+ There are no patches to the core Lua files; a future version
+ of luatex will switch to loading the regular lua 5.2 dynamic
+ library instead of depending on a statically compiled
+ one.
+
+* A bleeding-edge version of luasocket is included, as there
+ is no 5.2-compatible official release yet.
+
+* A new lua extension is the two-argument version of
+ string.dump from Luajit:
+
+ string.dump(function f, [boolean strip])
+
+* mpost 1.780
+
+* The implied existence of the following lua libraries is now
+ deprecated:
+
+ debug, unicode.*, luazip, lfs, lpeg, zlib, gzip, md5,
+ socket.*, profiler, epdf, fontloader, mplib, and
+ pdfscanner.
+
+ Future versions of luatex will load these modules on demand
+ from dynamic libraries.
+
+ Please update your sources to include a 'require' line for
+ each of the library modules mentioned.
+
+* Two new callbacks: find_cidmap_file and load_cidmap_file
+ (used by the fontloader to discover .cidmaps)
