+Release notes for version 0.9.7 [2011-02-15]:
+
+ - The CustomA and CustomB entry types are now obsolete.  Any such
+   entry in your .bib files will be ignored.  Please use Letter and
+   BookInBook, respectively.
+
+ - If you still have any CustomC entries containing introductions,
+   afterwords, or the like, please change them to SuppBook, as I have
+   reclaimed CustomC in order to provide alphabetized cross-references
+   to other, separate entries in a bibliography or list of references.
+
+ - The directory structure of the package archive has changed.  I've
+   copied that used by the biblatex package, so now you will find a
+   latex/ directory with further bbx/, cbx/, and lbx/ subdirectories,
+   and a doc/ directory with an examples/ subdirectory.  The files are
+   the same as in the previous release, merely organized differently.
+
+Other changes in 0.9.7:
+
+ - I have added three new audiovisual entry types to both styles,
+   Audio, Music, and Video.  The documentation of Audio in sections
+   4.1 and 5.1 of biblatex-chicago.pdf contains an overview of the
+   three, and the details for each type are to be found under their
+   individual headings.
+
+ - I have added several new bibstrings to the cms-*.lbx files for
+   these new audiovisual entry types.  This means that the
+   "editortype" fields can now be set to "director," "producer," or
+   "conductor," depending on your needs.  You can also set the fields
+   to "none," which eliminates all identifying strings, and which is
+   useful for identifying performers of various sorts.
+
+ - I have transformed the CustomC entry type to enable alphabetized
+   cross-references -- the "c" is meant to be mnemonic -- to other,
+   separate entries in a reference list or bibliography.  In
+   particular, this facilitates cross-references to other names in a
+   list, rather than to other works.  In author-date, in a procedure
+   recommended by the Manual, this now allows you to expand shorthands
+   inside the reference list rather than in a list of shorthands.  In
+   both styles, you can now provide a pointer to the main entry if a
+   reader is looking an author up under, e.g., a pseudonym or other
+   alternative name.
+
+ - I have introduced the "userc" field, intended to simplify the
+   printing of the cross-references provided by CustomC entries.  The
+   standard \nocite command works as well, but the additional
+   mechanism may be more convenient in some circumstances.
+
+ - You can now provide an "eventdate" field in Music entries to
+   identify, e.g., a particular recording session.  It will be printed
+   just after the "title."
+
+ - In the notes & bibliography style, I have now implemented the
+   "shorthandintro" field, which allows you to change the string
+   introducing a shorthand in the first, long note.  It works just as
+   it does in the standard biblatex styles.
+
+ - I have added six new field-exclusion options to both styles, all of
+   which can be set both in the document preamble and/or in the
+   "options" field of individual .bib entries.  Three of these --
+   "doi," "isbn," and "url" -- are standard biblatex options, the
+   others -- "bookpages," "includeall," and "numbermonth" -- are
+   chicago-specific.
+
+ - I've added the "juniorcomma" option to both styles, which can be
+   set in the document preamble and/or in the "options" field of
+   individual entries.  It allows you get the traditional comma
+   between a surname and "Jr." or "Sr."
+
+ - I fixed some old inaccuracies in the syntax of shortened notes and
+   bibliography entries presenting multiple contributions to one
+   multi-author (or single-author) volume.  For the most part the
+   changes won't affect your .bib files, but there may be cases where
+   you need to choose your entry types carefully in order to get the
+   results you want.  For the details, please consult the "crossref"
+   docs in section 4.2 of biblatex-chicago.pdf.
+
+ - Several other bug fixes -- see biblatex-chicago.pdf for details.
