+This is the README file for Subsurface 4.2
 
-This is the README file for Subsurface 4.1.94, the fifth Beta for 4.2
-
-It turns out a number of problems were caused by us still relying on Qt4
-for the Windows (and Mac) binaries. In part that was because Qt5 32bit
-installer for Windows were failing in strange ways.
-
-To work around this issues we made a rather drastic decision - there's now
-a 64bit Windows installer that includes Qt5 (and the Mac binaries have
-been moved over to Qt5 as well).
-
-While redoing the supporting cast we also switched to a newer Marble build
-and a newer libdivecomputer for the Mac and Windows installers.
-
-This (plus a bunch of patches) seems to have fixed a respectable number of
-bugs in Beta 4. Let's see how Beta 5 goes...
-
-Another new feature is a Russian translation of the manual, in addition to
-English and Spanish.
-
-Please be very careful when using it on your real data - while this is
-reasonably well tested by our developers, there's always a risk that this
-could eat your data file in unexpected ways (as Beta 2 has shown).
+Please check the ReleaseNotes.txt for details about new features and
+changes since Subsurface 4.1
