    <title>What's new?</title>
    <para>This section highlights recent changes to the HIG that may affect your application.</para>
     <para>The following changes were made in HIG v2.2.1:</para>
    <itemizedlist>
	<listitem><para>Mention in <xref linkend="windows-progress"/> that in-place progress 
	indicators are preferred to modal progress dialogs windows.
		</para></listitem>
    	<listitem><para>
	    	Replace guidance in <xref linkend="windows-progress"/> about progress windows having 
		same title as their primary text, which lead to unnecessary redundancy. Advice is now 
		that progress window title should summarize the overall operation.
