    60         The <classname docapi="net.sf.basedb.core">Application.getSessionControl()</classname>
    61         method for getting access to an existing session has been deprecated. A new
    62         version has been implemented that require that an <emphasis>external client id</emphasis>
    63         is specified. Extensions and other client application may stop working unless
    64         they are updated. See alos <xref linkend="appendix.incompatible.session-control"/>.
     60        Before BASE 3.10 a user was able to create/change/delete annotations on
     61        an item if the user has <code>WRITE</code> permission on the item and
     62        <code>READ</code> permission on the  annotation type.
     63        In BASE 3.10 several changes has been made:

     68          <para>
     69            <code>USE</code> permission is required on the annotation type to be able
     70            to create/change/delete annotations of that type. This may cause user to no
     71            longer be able to annotate certain items, unless their permissions
     72            are upgraded to <code>USE</code>. Users with <code>READ</code> permission
     73            can only read the annotation values.

     78          <para>
     79            A new permission level, <code>ANNOTATE</code>, has been introduced.
     80            In the permission hierarchy this sits between the <code>READ</code>
     81            and <code>WRITE</code> permission and can be used to give users
     82            permissions to manage annotations but not other properties of an item.
     83            All users with <code>WRITE</code> permission automatically get
     84            <code>ANNOTATE</code> permission so this change should not affect current
     85            users.

     43      A new permission level, <code>ANNOTATE</code> has been added to
     44      the permission system. Extensions and other clients that are not
     45      aware of this permission may think that the user only has
