+Release 3.8.1 (19 September 2012)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+3.8.1 is a bug fix release.  It fixes some assertion failures in 3.8.0
+that occur moderately frequently in real use cases, adds support for
+some missing instructions on ARM, and fixes a deadlock condition on
+MacOSX.  If you package or deliver 3.8.0 for others to use, you might
+want to consider upgrading to 3.8.1 instead.
+
+The following bugs have been fixed or resolved.  Note that "n-i-bz"
+stands for "not in bugzilla" -- that is, a bug that was reported to us
+but never got a bugzilla entry.  We encourage you to file bugs in
+bugzilla (https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=valgrind) rather
+than mailing the developers (or mailing lists) directly -- bugs that
+are not entered into bugzilla tend to get forgotten about or ignored.
+
+To see details of a given bug, visit
+  https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=XXXXXX
+where XXXXXX is the bug number as listed below.
