File Release Notes and Changelog
Notes:
After one year without a new versions of pgf/TikZ, I finally managed to ready a new version. I recommend updating to this version to all reasonably experienced users. After user feedback on this version, I intend to remove any remaining serious compatibility bugs and to create a very stable version 1.10 within the next few weeks.
In theory, the version 1.09 should be 100% compatible with version 1.01. However, since library inclusion has been changed to a more flexible system, some warnings will be issued when you include libraries in the old fashion. Just follow the instructions printed in the warning.
The only place where compatibility might be broken is pgflibraryautomata.sty. The shape "state with output" is no longer available. In the new (more powerful) library pgflibrarytikzautomata there is now a style of the same name haveing roughly the same effect. Thus, "shape=state with output" must be changed to "style=state with output".

new libraries.

wrappers.
