 =head2 Lookups
 
 For a start, lookup files are no longer supported. Since memory lookups
-are newer and more powerfull (for example, each key can have more than
+are newer and more powerful (for example, each key can have more than
 one value) it's not a great loss. However, you will have to re-write
 your C<import_xml> files if you use lookup files to use memory lookups.
 
-Memory lookups (refered as lookups for new versions of WebPAC) are now
-available always. Since whole database is availabe when creating
+Lookups B<are not> specified by C<[v900^4]> as in v1.x. Now, you have
+to use something like C<lookup{v900^4}>. Recursive lookups are also
+possible: C<lookup{foo:lookup{v900^4}}>.
+
+Memory lookups (referred as lookups for new versions of WebPAC) are now
+always available. Since whole database is available when creating
 output linking should be much easier now.
 
+However, using new lookups require to define lookups in different way.
+Additional benefit of that is conditional insert into lookup using eval
+(TODO: explain new lookup format).
+
+If you have any lookups in your tag (e.g. <isis>lookup{v900^5}</isis>)
+smart delimiters will be turned off (this behaviour is consistent with
+old in v1.x if you use C<type="lookup*"> or C<filter="mem_lookup">).

+=head2 Field definition in C<import_xml>
+
+Field definitions in C<import_xml> files has changed. Previously, you could
+write something like C<250a> and expect to get data from field B<250> subfield
+B<a>. Now you have to write C<v250^a> which is more ISIS-like and easier to
+parse. Don't be afraid, there is migration script in C<import_xml> to do
+this task for you.
+
+=head2 Templates
+
+Templateing engine has changed. WebPAC doesn't use C<HTML::Template> anymore,
+but Template Toolkit. TT proved to be workhorse for many tasks
+and limitations of C<HTML::Template> forced me to move from it.
+
+For you, the user, that will result in changes to all templates. I'm sorry
+about this, but it had to be done.
+
+=head2 Order of substitution
+
+This was never really documented, so here it is now:
+
+=over 5
+
+=item fields
+
+substitution of fields like C<v200^a> into values
+
+=item lookups
+
+next, lookups are performed (C<lookup{...}>)
+
+=item format
+
+then formats (defined by C<format_name=> and C<format_delimiter=>) are
+applied. If formats have lookups, they will be performed again.
