 DELETIONS
 
+xdc.runtime Core functions allocObject and delistObject are not used, and
+	    they might have never been used, so we removed them.
+
 CHANGES
 
-packages    enabled the previously disabled executables on Windows
+xdc.runtime module System was calling xdc.useModule on other modules in the
+	    runtime package because these modules were considered always
+	    necessary when the runtime was used, so System was picked as a
+	    module that was always used to ensure that other necessary modules
+	    are in the configuration. However, now we need to create a
+	    configuration that will be minimal, so we are trying to come up
+	    with a way to exclude Log, Diags, Assert, Main, Registry.
+	    For that purpose, useModule calls are distributed to the modules
+	    where they should have been in the first place, and also we are
+	    using some modules conditionally.
 
-xs	    some example paths and JRE paths were assuming JRE 1.7. They are
-	    now adjusted to JRE 9.
+	    Error has a new internal function policyLog that moves usage of
+	    Log and Diags into the config C file, so that if Log and Diags are
+	    not explicitly used by other modules, Error will not use them and
+	    it will generate NOPs instead of calling Diags and Log functions.
+
+	    Core has a new config 'noAsserts', which will be used only when
+	    SYS/BIOS eliminates Asserts with a macro and the runtime modules
+	    are recompiled at the config time with SYS/BIOS macros.
+
+xdc.shelf   antlr-tool doesn't run in JRE 9, so only for creating the grammar
+	    we use JRE 7. Eventually, we should update to Antlr 3.5.2 and a
+	    corresponding StringTemplate version
