+What's new in NX-0.23?
+----------------------
+
+Release date: 14 July 2005
+
+The NetworkX web locations have changed:
+
+https://networkx.lanl.gov/     - main documentation site
+https://networkx.lanl.gov/svn  - subversion source code repository
+https://networkx.lanl.gov/wiki - bug tracking and info
+
+
+Important Change
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The naming conventions in NetworkX have changed.
+The package name "NX" is now "networkx".
+
+The suggested ways to import the NetworkX package are
+
+ - import networkx
+ - import networkx as NX
+ - from networkx import *
+
+New features
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+  - DiGraph reverse
+
+Examples
+~~~~~~~~
+Documentation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+  - Changed to reflect NX-networkx change
+  - main site is now https://networkx.lanl.gov/
+
+Bug fixes
+~~~~~~~~~
+   - Fixed logic in io.py for reading DiGraphs.  
+   - Path based centrality measures (betweenness, closeness)
+     modified so they work on graphs that are not connected and
+     produce the same result as if each connected component were
+     considered separately.
