-Typing issues are less critical in those languages, so :
+The following changes have been done :
   * GetFID(), GetFeatureCount() have been changed to return a 64 bit integer
   * SetFID(), GetFeature(), DeleteFeature(), SetNextByIndex() have been changed to accept a 64 bit integer as argument
   * GetFieldAsInteger64() and SetFieldInteger64() have been added
   * In Python, GetField(), SetField() can accept/return 64 bit values
-  * GetFieldAsInteger64List() and SetFieldInteger64List() have been added (Python only, due to lack of relevant typemaps for other languages)
+  * GetFieldAsInteger64List() and SetFieldInteger64List() have been added (Python only, due to lack of relevant typemaps for other languages, but could potentially be done)
+
+The change in return type of GetFID() and GetFeatureCount() might cause warnings at compilation time in some languages (Java YES, Python not relevant, Perl/C# ?).
+All changes to existing methods will are an ABI change for Java bytecode.
