messy, because the 1.3.x branch dragged on for a long time.

Either review the spiffy HTML version:

Or just look at this inline text version:

Upgrade Notes

We now support Erlang/OTP R16B and R16B01; the minimum required version is =
R14B.

User document role values must now be strings. Other types of values
will be refused when saving the user document.
