Add a bit of instruction for upgrading from 2.0.1 to 2.1, possibly
requiring manual intervention if the templates were changed from English. Probably not complete.

+UPGRADING FROM 2.0.1 to 2.1
+
+ Mailman 2.1 introduces multilingual (a.k.a. internationalization
+ or i18n) support. Previously only one language per list was
+ supported, and it was assumed that this language would be English.
+ The upgrade script for Mailman 2.1 creates a subdirectory `en'
+ inside each lists/<listname> directory. It then copies all the
+ .txt and .html files from lists/<listname> into
+ lists/<listname>/en.
+
+ If you have modified those templates to contain non-English text,
+ you will have to manually rename the en subdirectories to the
+ language code for the language of your templates.
+
+ BAW: We may need to elaborate on this quite a bit, or provide
+ scripts to make it much simplier.

UPGRADING FROM 2.0 to 2.0.1
Nothing much more than running "make install" (after upgrading)
