   - According to this new scheme, the next major version of Automake
     (the one that had previously been labelled as "1.14") will actually
-    become "Automake 2.0".  Automake 1.14 is *this* release (which is
-    a minor one).  It introduces new features, deprecations and bug
-    fixes, but no serious backward incompatibility.  A partial exception
-    is given by the behavioural changes in the AM_PROG_CC_C_O macro
-    (described in details below) but such changes can also be seen as a
-    fix for the old suboptimal and somewhat confusing behaviour.

+New in 1.14.1:
+
+* Bugs fixed:
+
+  - The user is no longer allowed to override the --srcdir nor the --prefix
+    configure options used by "make distcheck" (bug#14991).
+
+  - Fixed a gross inefficiency in the recipes for installing byte-compiled
+    python files, that was causing an O(N^2) performance on the number N of
+    files, instead of the expected O(N) performance.  Note that this bug
+    was only relevant when the number of python files was high (which is
+    unusual in practice).
+
+  - Automake try to offer a more reproducible output for warning messages,
+    in the face of the newly-introduced randomization for hash keys order
+    in Perl 5.18.
+
+  - The 'test-driver' script now actually error out with a clear error
+    message on the most common invalid usages.
+
+  - Several spurious failures/hangs in the testsuite (bugs #14706, #14707,
+    #14760, #14911, #15181, #15237).
+
+* Documentation fixes:
+
+  - Fixed typos in the 'fix-timestamp.sh' example script that made it
+    nonsensical.
