+CHANGELOG
+
+==== TODO ===
+ * ths-poupdate.sh - add a function to allow cleanup of a file to be updated of the fuzzy strings (this will allow the file to be updated to be translated including the strings that were old).
+=== /TODO ===
+
+v. 0.3 (2009-xx-xx)
+ * ths-poupdate.sh - changed the default from using the old translation as primary to using the new translation as primary.
+ 
+v. 0.2 (2008-01-18) 
+ * updated ths-applysed.sh command, removed a serious flaw that would at times eat half a file where it should not have.
+ 
+v. 0.1 (2007-09-17) 
+ * initial release.
