+hurd (20110319-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * To harmonize with Debian security conventions, the Debian
+ GNU/Hurd login prompt is now a standard login/password prompt,
+ and not a login shell any more. To revert to a standard login, set the
+ shell of the login user to /bin/bash.

+hurd (20050513-4) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * The Hurd console may now be started automatically on bootup. The
+ file `/etc/default/hurd-console' controls whether the Hurd console
+ will be started, and if so, which options are used. To get the
+ Hurd console on bootup, change ENABLE to `true' and adjust the
+ other options to your liking.

+hurd (20050119-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * The command line syntax for the console client has slightly
+ changed. It is no longer necessary or even allowed to specify the
+ consnode path to the short `-c' option (e.g. `-c /dev/cons'),
+ /dev/cons is implied as default (but can be changed using the long
+ option, `--consnode=FOO'). When using the mouse or keyboard
+ repeater, the console client command line should now be as follows:
+ console -d vga -d pc_kbd --repeat=kbd -d pc_mouse --repeat=mouse \
+ -d generic_speaker -c /dev/vcs
