    The reason they are oldest to new is because we read from the top to the bottom and sometimes it important for people to read the whatsnew in order -- Some things at the end wouldn't make sense unless you read the entries before it.

    Maybe what I could do is have the install program jump to the current alpha notes when you view whatsnew, or a key that allows a person to jump to any alpha's notes.

    Status quo works for me.

    Nice touch but not sure it's really needed.

    Ok so you do have a valid reason. Its not that big of a deal to me really.

    I will bear my upside down reading anguish in my hidden fortress
    with my pet raven as i have always done.
