-		Fedora 11 includes a number of applications and libraries that are of interest to amateur radio operators and electronic hobbyists. Many of these applications are included in the Fedora Electronic Lab spin. For a complete list of amateur radio applications available within Fedora see <ulink type="http" url="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Applications_for_Amateur_Radio">Applications for amateur radio</ulink> on the wiki.
+	  In addition to a number of bug fixes,
+	  <package>xlog</package> now includes a feature to ease
+	  handling of unknown countries. When "<guimenu>Tools -> Find
+	  unknown countries</guimenu>" is selected,
+	  <package>xlog</package> will show a list of contacts for
+	  which DXCC lookup fails. You can then correct this by using
+	  a "<command>DXCC-</command>" string in the awards column.
