+1.0.0a3
+-------
+
+Extra path elements to be included in generated scripts can now be set
+via the extra-paths option.
+
+No longer implicitly generate py_ scripts fo reach egg. There is now
+an interpreter option to generate a script that, when run without
+arguments, launches the Python interactive interpreter with the path
+set based on a parts eggs and extra paths. If this script is run with
+the name of a Python script and arguments, then the given script is
+run with the path set.
+
+You can now specify explicit entry points. This is useful for use
+with packages that don't declare their own entry points.
