-\section{Non-release notes for versions~0.24 and 0.25}
-Version~0.24 (March 1995) was a tidy-up release; it mostly
-fixed some ``threads'' problems (now ``Concurrent Haskell''),
-some I/O problems, and some porting problems.
+\section{Versions 0.26 through 0.29}
 
-Version~0.25 was a binary-only dump of a \tr{i386-*-linuxaout}
-build, just so people could try it.
+GHC~0.26 (7/95) was the last major release of GHC for Haskell~1.2.
 
-\section[release-0-23]{Release notes for version~0.23---12/94}
-\input{0-23-notes.lit}
+GHC~0.27 (12/95) was a `` binary-only from-working-sources
+no-guarantees snapshot ...  for i386-unknown-linuxaout and
+i386-unknown-solaris2 platforms...''
 
-\section[release-0-22]{Release notes for version~0.22---7/94}
-\input{0-22-notes.lit}
+GHC~0.28 (5/96) was the same thing, for the i386-unknown-linux (ELF)
+platform.
 
-\section[release-0-19]{Release notes for version~0.19---12/93}
-\input{0-19-notes.lit}
+GHC~0.29 (7/96), released at the same time as 2.01, is just ``0.26
+with bug fixes''; i.e., the current state-of-play on the Haskell~1.2
+compiler development.

-There were a couple of private releases to highly zealous people,
-mainly our friends at York.  There are README files in the
-\tr{release_notes/} dir about those, if you are really interested.

-\upsection
+We used to include the release notes back to the dawn of time in this
+document.  Made for a nice long document, but it wasn't that
+interesting.  If you would like to see old release notes, just ask;
+we've still got 'em.
