Please note the following important changes since release 0.98.4:
SCons is developed with an extensive regression test suite, and a
rigorous development methodology for continually improving that suite.
Because of this, SCons is of sufficient quality that you can use it

- still may change interfaces in future releases, which may require
- modifications to your SConscript files. We strive to hold these
- changes to a minimum.

- Nevertheless, please heed the following disclaimers:

+ RELEASE notes.

+ As you use SCons, please heed the following:
- Please report any bugs or other problems that you find to our bug
tracker at our SourceForge project page:
