+Beta Release 0.1.6 (2 September, 2009)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Notable changes:
+
+ * In tview, do not show a blank screen when no reads mapped to the
+ corresponding region.
+
+ * Implemented native HTTP support in the BGZF library. Samtools is now
+ able to directly open a BAM file on HTTP. HTTP proxy is also
+ supported via the "http_proxy" environmental variable.
+
+ * Samtools is now compitable with the MinGW (win32) compiler and the
+ PDCurses library.
+
+ * The calmd (or fillmd) command now calculates the NM tag and replaces
+ MD tags if they are wrong.
+
+ * The view command now recognizes and optionally prints FLAG in HEXs or
+ strings to make a SAM file more friendly to human eyes. This is a
+ samtools-C extension, not implemented in Picard for the time
+ being. Please type `samtools view -?' for more information.
+
+ * BAM files now have an end-of-file (EOF) marker to facilitate
+ truncation detection. A warning will be given if an on-disk BAM file
+ does not have this marker. The warning will be seen on BAM files
+ generated by an older version of samtools. It does NO harm.
+
+ * New key bindings in tview: `r' to show read names and `s' to show
+ reference skip (N operation) as deletions.
+
+ * Fixed a bug in `samtools merge -n'.
+
+ * Samtools merge now optionally copies the header of a user specified
+ SAM file to the resultant BAM output.
+
+ * Samtools pileup/tview works with a CIGAR with the first or the last
+ operation is an indel.
+
+ * Fixed a bug in bam_aux_get().
+
+
+Changes in other utilies:
+
+ * Fixed wrong FLAG in maq2sam.
