+<h1> Upgrade incompatibilities: notes for developers </h1>
+
+<h2> From previous versions to 2.0.0.0 </h2>
+
+<ul>
+ <li> No compatibility is ensured. Most APIs haven't changed, but no guarantee
+is offered. </li>
+ <li> The most important change is probably the disparition of <tt>struct tai</tt>
+and <tt>struct taia</tt>, replaced with the <tt>tai_t</tt> and <tt>tain_t</tt>
+types. Attosecond precision has been removed - processor speed is almost capped now,
+and it looks like nanosecond precision will be enough for the foreseeable future. </li>
+ <li> Programs should now link with <tt>-lskarnet</tt> followed by the appropriate
+sysdeps links. </li>
+</ul>
