 Changes in version ?.? (????-??-??):
 
-*
+* Java skeleton improvements:
+
+  The constants for token names were moved to the Lexer interface.
+  Also, it is possible to add code to the parser's constructors using
+  "%code init" and "%define init_throws".
+
+Changes in version 2.4 (2008-11-02):
+
+* %language is an experimental feature.
+
+  We first introduced this feature in test release 2.3b as a cleaner
+  alternative to %skeleton.  Since then, we have discussed the possibility of
+  modifying its effect on Bison's output file names.  Thus, in this release,
+  we consider %language to be an experimental feature that will likely evolve
+  in future releases.
+
+* Forward compatibility with GNU M4 has been improved.
+
+* Several bugs in the C++ skeleton and the experimental Java skeleton have been
+  fixed.
