-Upgrade tips
-============
+We are excited to announce this major release of auditing tool Lynis. Several big
+changes have been made to core functions of Lynis. These changes are the next of
+simplification improvements we made. There is a risk of breaking your existing
+configuration. See the tips below to upgrade.
 
-Several changes have been made to core functions of Lynis. These are to simplify
-its usage, but might cause differences after upgrading. See the tips below to
-make.
+This release will soon also be available in our software repository. For more
+details see https://packages.cisofy.com to install and upgrade Lynis.
 
-Custom profiles:
-Instead of making changes to default.prf, copy your changes to custom.prf. Only
-include the changes, as the values in default.prf are considered to be defaults.
 
-Check your cron jobs:
-When using --quiet, the output will be really quiet now.
-Use --show-warnings-only if you still want to see warnings.
+Upgrade tips
+============
 
-Lynis will exit with error 0, even when warnings have been found. Use option
-error-on-warnings=yes (custom.prf) to exit with code 78 warnings.
+Default profile and custom profiles:
+Settings of multiple profiles can now be merged. Instead of making changes to
+default.prf, copy your changes to custom.prf. Use 'lynis show profiles' to show
+any detected profiles. Only include your changes in custom.prf, to keep the
+configuration clean and tidy. They will then overwrite the defaults. Use
+'lynis show settings' to see if they are applied.
 
-Do not define a profile with --profile. Instead, put only your changes in the
-new custom.prf.
+Check your cron jobs:
+When using --quiet, the output will be really quiet now. Use --show-warnings-only
+if you still want to see the warnings. Lynis will now exit with error 0, even
+when warnings have been found. Use option error-on-warnings=yes (custom.prf) to
+exit with code 78 when it has any warnings.
