Could anyone please tell me where I may find the release notes for XeTeX ?  I ask because the behaviour of \XeTeXpdffile changed somewhere between \XeTeXrevision = 0.99996 and \XeTeXrevision = 0.99999 (see code fragment below) and I would like to ensure that my code behaviour is correct for intermediate versions.
