 "_all" pseudo-builder that the web pages use to allow force-build buttons
 that start builds on all Builders at once.
 
+** New Features
+
+*** "buildbot checkconfig"
+
+The "buildbot checkconfig" command will look at your master.cfg file and tell
+you if there are any problems with it. This can be used to test potential
+changes to your config file before submitting them to the running
+buildmaster. This is particularly useful to run just before doing "buildbot
+restart", since the restart will fail if the config file has an error. By
+running "buildbot checkconfig master.cfg && buildbot restart", you'll only
+perform the restart if the config file was ok. Many thanks to Ben Hearsum for
+the patch.
+
+*** Waterfall "?category=FOO" query-arguments
+
+The Waterfall page now accepts one or more "category=" query arguments in the
+URL, to filter the display by categories. These behave a lot like the
+"builder=" query argument. Thanks to Jermo Davann for the patch.
+
 ** Bugs Fixed
 
+Many bugs were fixed, and many minor features were added. Many thanks to
+Dustin Mitchell who fixed and coordinated many of these. Here is a terse
+list, for more details, please see the Trac page for the 0.7.7 release, at
+http://buildbot.net/trac/query?status=closed&milestone=0.7.7 :

 Many of the URLs generated by the buildbot were wrong.
 Display of last-heard-from timestamps on the buildslaves web page were wrong.
 Asking an IRC bot about a build waiting on a Lock should no longer crash.
 Same for the web viewer.
 Stop treating the encouraged info/ directory as leftover.
-
 Add more force/stop build buttons.
-Builder names can no longer start with an underscore: these are reserved.
 Timestamps displayed on the waterfall now handle daylight savings properly.
-p4poller no longer quits after a single failure
-Improved Git support, including 'try', branch, and revisions. Use 'git', not 'cogito'
