+This is a major release which contains numerous enhancements and bug
+fixes from the 21a release.
 
 CMUCL is a free, high performance implementation of the Common Lisp
 programming language which runs on most major Unix platforms. It
 mainly conforms to the ANSI Common Lisp standard. CMUCL provides a
 sophisticated native code compiler; a powerful foreign function
 interface; an implementation of CLOS, the Common Lisp Object System,
-which includes multi-methods and a meta-object protocol; a source-level
-debugger and code profiler; and an Emacs-like editor implemented in
-Common Lisp. CMUCL is maintained by a team of volunteers collaborating
-over the Internet, and is mostly in the public domain.
