+<ul>
+  <li><p>In <b>AbsoluteLayout.ComponentPosition</b> (<a href="http://dev.vaadin.com/ticket/5311">#5311</a>):</p>

+		instead of <tt>float</tt> to allow null values for indicating "unset"
+		values. This change can cause compile-time errors, which you may need
+		to solve with proper casts.</p></li>
+
+		<li><p>The <tt>setCSSString()</tt> now resets attributes not present
+		in the given parameter to their unset state, which may cause change
+		application behavior without causing any compile- or runtime-errors.</p></li>
