+Changes from the mainline CPAN module:
+
+  * added support for the new commands in Redis 1.2.x (sorted sets,
+       etc).  all are new bulk commands (zadd, zrem, zscore, etc.)
+
+Fixes being considered:
+
+  * adding a "use bytes" in AUTOLOAD to prevent issues with wide
+    characters since the module uses print()
+
+  * Fix return for NULL result vs. empty result as described here:

+*** NOTICE ***
+
+This is a modified version of the Redis module from CPAN.  It's what's
+currently in use at Craigslist for our Redis work.
+
+My goal is to share our work in the hopes of having it included back
+into the main distribution.
+
+See MyChanges.txt for details on how this differs from that module.
