+If you are using SurfaceAdaptor, you will need to capitalize and
+preface everything describing the surface with "top".  So the struct

+---------------
+
+If you create a shape with SurfaceAdaptor, you must have material
+covering that region.  It is ok if you specify a region larger than
+what the SurfaceAdaptor covers.  Only the region specified by
+SurfaceAdaptor will get filled.  In previous releases, a shape created
+with a SurfaceAdaptor was implicitly filled.
+
+---------------
+
+Then spelling of "verticies" has been corrected to "vertices".
