  				<p><b>Enhanced Keyclient.exe.</b> When run manually, it offers a certificate picker to 
                                  choose among multiple valid certificates.
  			<li>
+ 				<p><b>Fixed problems reading registry settings.</b> The filter is more consistent about
+ 				reading and applying default configuration, as well as configuration defined through 
+ 				alternate WebVarLocations. The related bugs in version 3.1.1 have been fixed.
+ 			<li>
  				<p><b>Updated Cache-control headers.</b> The Pubcookie filter matches the Apache module's
  				headers for redirections to the login server.</b>
  			<li>

! 		<p>The installer will remove earlier versions of the filter if it appears 
! 		you're upgrading from a previous version. It will preserve your existing
! 		registry settings for web resources; however it will update the root
! 		level settings for the filter (i.e. Pubcookie Server Variables) according 
! 		to the Site Information you provide. The safest keyclient behavior is to
! 		not run the keyclient; however retrieving the existing key is also a safe
! 		choice.
  
! 		<p>[fixme: any reason to back up the Pubcookie folder or uninstall previous
! 		versions first?]

! 		<p>[fixme: This is first draft. We need more real-world experience to confirm that 
! 		this section is accurate.]
! 
! 		<p>The Windows installer package requires you to uninstall previous versions prior
! 		to installing a newer version.
! 
! 		<ol>
! 		<li>
! 		<p>Run the installer for the version of Pubcookie currently installed on your
! 		system, e.g. if you're using version 3.1.1 run the Pubcookie 3.1.1 installer.
! 
! 		<li>
! 		<p>Choose the Remove option from the Program Maintenance screen, click Next, and
! 		click Remove. This will uninstall the current version while perserving your 
! 		current Pubcookie keys folder and your current configuration settings for alternate 
! 		WebVarLocations and web resources (i.e. web instances, folders and files).
! 
! 		<p>Note: uninstalling Pubcookie removes the root level configuration settings for the 
! 		filter (i.e. Pubcookie Server Variables). These settings will be added back, based
! 		on the Site Information you provide, when you install the newer version.
! 
! 		<li>
! 		<p>Once you have uninstalled the current version of Pubcookie, run the new installer.
! 		It will install Pubcookie as if from scratch, perserving your current Pubcookie keys
! 		folder and configuration settings.
! 
! 		<p>Note: Enter the same Authentication Flavor Names to ensure that current AuthType
! 		configurations work the same as before. If you change your Authentication Flavor
! 		Names, resources that currently require authentication may not be protected
! 		anymore.
  
! 		<p>Note: The safest keyclient behavior to choose during an upgrade is to not run the keyclient.
! 		This leaves your keys folder unchanged. Retrieving the existing key is a safe choice too.
! 
! 		<p>Note: The installer will remove old versions of the filter from
! 		the IIS metabase, but this generally isn't as effective as uninstalling things first.
! 
! 		</ol>
