 Architecture
 ------------
+ * Significant updates to the subscription model.  Members can now subscribe
+   with a preferred address, and changes to that will be immediately reflected
+   in mailing list subscriptions.  Users who subscribe with an explicit
+   address can easily change to a different address, as long as that address
+   is verified.  (LP: #643949)
+ * IUsers and IMembers are now assigned a unique, random, immutable id.
+ * IUsers now have created_on and .preferred_address properties.
+ * IMembers now have a .user attribute for easy access to the subscribed user.
+ * When created with add_member(), passwords are always stored encrypted.
  * In all interfaces, "email" refers to the textual email address while
    "address" refers to the `IAddress` object.
