!!Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 2.4.x
+* LyX now uses the parskip package for vertical paragraph separation. Since the
+ output differs from the previous (sub-optimal) approach which applied paragraph
+ separation to sections, lists etc. as well, existing documents
+ are converted to use preamble code that maintains the previous layout.
+ The downside is that the workarea looks as if paragraph indendation rather
+ than paragraph separation was used (output is correct). We encourage you
+ to try if the new layout suits you, remove the respective preamble code
+ and re-set the paragraph separation to use the new layout.
+
* Autotools monolithic build option for building LyX binaries was removed,
for compilation speedup use parallel building on multiple cores instead.
