+What's new in 2.1b1
+--------------------
+Fixed wxComboBox.SetSelection so that it actually sets the selected
+item.  (Actually just removed it from wxPython and let it default to
+wxChoice.SetSelection which was already doing the right thing.)
+
+Added the Printing Framework.
+
+Switched back to using the wxWindows DLL for the pre-built Win32
+version.  The problem was needing to reinitialize static class info
+data after loading each extension module.
+
+Lots of little tweaks and additions to reflect changes to various
+wxWindows classes.
+
+Fixed a bug with attaching objects to tree items.  Actually was a
+symptom of a larger problem with not obtaining the interpreter lock
+when doing any Py_DECREFs.
+
+wxSizer and friends.  Sizers are layout tools that manage a colection
+of windows and sizers.  Different types of sizers apply different
+types of layout algorithms.  You saw it here first!  These classes are
+not even in the wxWindows C++ library yet!
