+GNU nano 2.7.0 "Suni" adds a new feature: allowing text to be
+selected by holding Shift together with the cursor keys.
+Besides that, nano now works also when run in very tiny
+terminals (down to one line, one column), and improves
+the handling of the prompt in cramped spaces.  Not much,
+but it's time to get it out there.
+
+With this release we return to GNU.  For just a little while
+we dreamt we were tigers.  But we are back in the herd,
+back to a healthy diet of fresh green free grass.
