+* Issue #100: When building a distribution, Setuptools will no longer match
+ default files using platform-dependent case sensitivity, but rather will
+ only match the files if their case matches exactly. As a result, on Windows
+ and other case-insensitive file systems, files with names such as
+ 'readme.txt' or 'README.TXT' will be omitted from the distribution and a
+ warning will be issued indicating that 'README.txt' was not found. Other
+ filenames affected are:
+
+ - README.rst
+ - README
+ - setup.cfg
+ - setup.py (or the script name)
+ - test/test*.py
+
+ Any users producing distributions with filenames that match those above
+ case-insensitively, but not case-sensitively, should rename those files in
+ their repository for better portability.
