+C# Driver Version 1.3 Release Notes
+===================================
+
+This release of the C# driver has fewer changes than most releases before it. The primary goal of this release is to support
+new features introduced by the 2.0 server release, and to fix bugs reported since the 1.2 C# driver was released.
+
+Highlights
+    Support for new features introduced by 2.0 server release
+    A number of minor bug fixes
+    One important bug fix for Disconnect (which caused the connection pool to get jammed)
+    
+Breaking changes (mostly internal and/or low level)
+    Slight changes in Equals and == for BsonValues
+        Equals no longer does numeric coercion and uses Equals (instead of ==) to compare values
+        Comparing BsonDouble NaN values now mirrors Equals and == behavior of System.Double
+        Operator == (and !=) still coerce different numeric types to a compatible type before comparing
+    Calling BsonMemberMap.SetDefaultValue no longer automatically sets SerializeDefaultValue to true
+    GetIndexes now returns a GetIndexesResult (original return value is still available as result.RawDocuments)
+
+JIRA Issues resolved
+--------------------
+
+The list of JIRA issues resolved in this driver release can be found at https://jira.mongodb.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=11131

+
+BsonDocument.cs
+    Added implementations of operator == and operator !=
+    Equals now checks type of rhs
+    Added ToDictionary and ToHashtable methods
+
+BsonDouble.cs
+    Added implementations of operator == and operator != (now handles NaN same as System.Double)
+    Equals now uses Equals instead of == to compare values (now handles NaN same as System.Double)

+
+BsonValue.cs
+    Operator == and != now call virtual method OperatorEqualsImplementation
+    Default implementation of OperatorEqualsImplementation calls Equals, but numeric subclasses override to do numeric coercions
+
+BsonDictionaryOptionsAttribute.cs

+
+DictionarySerializationOptions.cs
+    New serialization options used to choose the representation to use when serializing a Dictionary
