+RELEASE NOTES FOR KOHA 3.2.1 - 22 October 2010
+========================================================================
+
+Koha is the first free and open source software library automation package 
+(ILS). Development is sponsored by libraries of varying types and sizes, 
+volunteers, and support companies from around the world.  
+The website for the Koha project is 
+
+    http://koha-community.org/
+
+Koha 3.2.1 can be downloaded from:
+
+    http://download.koha-community.org/koha-3.02.01.tar.gz
+
+Installation instructions can be found at:
+
+    http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Installation_Documentation
+
+Koha 3.2.1 is a bugfix release.
+
+Bugs fixed in 3.2.1
+======================
+
+System requirements
+======================
+
+    Changes since 3.0:
+
+    * The minimum version of Perl required is now 5.8.8.
+    * There are a number of new Perl module dependencies.
+      Run ./koha_perl_deps.pl -u -m to get a list of
+      any new modules to install during upgrade.
+
+Upgrades
+======================
+
+The structure of the acquisitions tables have changed significantly
+from 3.0.x.  In particular, the budget hierarchy is quite different.
+During an upgrade, a new database table is created called fundmapping
+that contains a record of how budgets were mapped.  It is strongly
+recommended that users of Koha 3.0.x acquisitions carefully review
+the results of the upgrade before resuming ordering in Koha 3.2.x.
+
