+Version 0.18 - January 2008
+
+* PO file format:
+ There is a new field 'Language' in the header entry. It denotes the language
+ code (plus optional country code) for the PO file. This field can be used
+ by automated tools, such as spell checkers. It is expected to be more
+ reliable than looking at the file name or at the 'Language-Team' field in
+ the header entry.
+ msgmerge, msgcat, msgen have a new option --lang that allows to specify
+ this field. Additionally, msgmerge fills in this new field by looking at
+ the 'Language-Team' field (if the --lang option is not given).
