+    <h2>Second Stable Branch of Node released</h2>
+
+    <p>
+    <a
+      href="https://github.com/ry/node/wiki/Migrating-from-v0.2-to-v0.3">Wiki
+    page detailing API changes between v0.4 and v0.2</a>
+
+    <p>
+    Major changes since v0.2:
+
+    <ul>
+      <li> Major overhaul of TLS/SSL system. Previously the binding to
+      OpenSSL was heavily interwoven into the socket code. This binding was
+      reworked to present each connection as a pair of "streams" instead: a
+      duplex encrypted stream and a duplex cleartext stream. The encrypted
+      stream is piped to a raw TCP socket using the general purpose
+      <code>Stream.prototype.pipe()</code> method. Functionality was
+      enhanced and API simplified.
+
+      <li> Cheaper <code>Buffer</code> allocation. Node uses
+      <code>Buffer</code> objects in many places - it was noticed that they
+      were relatively slow to allocate and difficult to garbage collect. The
+      implementation changed to use pure javascript objects instead of
+      an <code>ObjectWrap</code> which improved performance.
+
+      <li> With a good amount of experience now, some modifications to the
+      module loading system were made to better support package managers.
+      In particular, NPM was forced to resort to deep symlinks and "shim"
+      modules to work around missing features in <code>require()</code>. The main
+      changes are:
+      <ol>
+        <li><code>require()</code> calls realpath. That is,
+        it resolves symbolic links. This allows symlinked modules to make
+        relative requires.
+
+        <li><code>require()</code> now has a primitive understanding of
+        <code>package.json</code>. It looks for the <code>main</code>
+        script. This allows <code>require()</code> to work on package
+        directories directly.
+
+        <li>A specially named directory, <code>node_modules/</code>, is
+        searched in the current directory for any modules. This will
+        hopefully encourage programmers to bundle modules rather than
+        rely on a global namespace.
+      </ol>
+      Read more about these features in <a
+        href="https://github.com/ry/node/blob/01a864a29d64119054401784cd9255c3a813bdbc/doc/api/modules.markdown">the
+        module documentation</a>.
+
+      <li> A half-complete but good start a native windows build with MinGW
+      is underway by Bert Builder. Build instructions can be found <a
+        href="https://github.com/ry/node/wiki/Building-node.js-on-mingw">on
+        the wiki</a>.
+
+      <li> Node upgraded to the latest version of V8, <code>v3.1.2</code>.
+      This includes much work including V8's new compilation infrastructure
+      and a GDB plugin on Linux.
+      Read <a
+        href="https://github.com/ry/node/blob/583f2e599962f2664dbaafa0ae98a8d6c1242441/deps/v8/ChangeLog">the
+        full V8 ChangeLog</a>.
+
+      <li>A new built-in client for V8's debugger was added to Node. It is
+      still very primitive but usable for simple task. There is a <a
+        href="http://vimeo.com/19465332">small introduction video</a> and
+      some <a
+        href="https://github.com/ry/node/blob/01a864a29d64119054401784cd9255c3a813bdbc/doc/api/debugger.markdown">documentation</a>.
+
+      <li>An <code>os</code> module was added by Brian White which exposes
+      a lot of basic but useful system information: <code>os.cpus(),
+        os.freemem(), os.totalmem(), os.loadavg()</code>
+
+      <li> And, of course, many of bug fixes. See the
+      <a
+        href="https://github.com/ry/node/blob/01a864a29d64119054401784cd9255c3a813bdbc/ChangeLog">full
