-2000-11-xx, version 1.1.0
+2004-11-03, version 1.1.9
+=========================
+
+Algorithmic changes
+-------------------
+
+* Input of numbers in bases 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32 is now done in linear bit
+  complexity as opposed to O(N^2). Useful for all kinds of persistency.
+
+Implementation changes
+----------------------
+
+* Fixed several bugs in the integer input and output routines that could be
+  blamed for random crashes in the following cases: output in base 32 for
+  quite large numbers, input in base 2 for fixnums and input in base 3 for
+  fixnums on a 64 bit target.
+
+* Fixed crash when radix specifiers were used in input streams.
+
+* Speed up on x86_64 and ia64 by adding some inline assembly.
+
+Other changes
+-------------
+
+* Fixes for compilation on MacOS X and little endian Mips.
+
+
+2004-07-01, version 1.1.8
+=========================
+
+Implementation changes
+----------------------
+
+* Fix bug in log(a,b) when b is 1/n.
+
+* Fix crash in shared library on AMD64.
+
+Other changes
+-------------
+
+* Fixes for some language conformance issues.
+
+
+2004-05-02, version 1.1.7
+=========================

+
+* Fixed two corner case bugs in cl_LF multiplication and sqrt.
+
+* Workaround GCC 3.[123] compiler bug.
+
+* Parallel build should work reliably now.
+
+
+2004-01-01, version 1.1.6
+=========================
+
+Functional changes
+------------------
+
+* New function
+  `sintL ldegree(const cl_UP& x)'.
+  (Suggested by Munagala Ramanath.)
+
+Implementation changes
+----------------------
+
+* Fixed a bug in polynomial subtraction.
+  (Reported by Munagala Ramanath.)
+
+Other changes
+-------------
+
+* Provide a package control file cln.pc.
+
+* Updated infrastructure to autoconf-2.57.
+
+* Fixed compilation issues with GCC-3.4 prereleases and on Mac OSX.
+
+
+2002-05-28, version 1.1.5
+=========================
+
+Other changes
+-------------
+
+* Fix compilation issues with GCC-3.1.
+
+
+2002-01-04, version 1.1.4
+=========================
+
+Other changes

+Implementation changes
+----------------------
+
+* Fix a computation error of sin and sinh for small arguments.
+  (Reported by Christopher Kennedy.)
+
+* Module ordering works with gcc-3.0 -fuse-cxa-atexit now.
+
+* -DNO_ASM works properly on Sparc.
+
+
+2001-07-25, version 1.1.2
+
+Implementation changes
+----------------------
+
+* Minor cleanups and portability issues.
+  (No need to upgrade if you have been happy so far.)

+----------------------
+
+* Minor cleanups for GCC 3.0 and libstdc++-v3.
+
+* Fixes several little bugs and portability issues.

 =========================
 
 Functional changes
 ------------------
 
 * ISO/IEC 14882 fashion adjustments:
-  Put everything into namespace cln.  All funcamental data types still
+  Put everything into namespace cln.  All fundamental data types still
   carry their old names.  Other non-macro identifiers are now written as 
   cln::foo instead of cl_foo, except where the cl_ comes from a data type
   (as in cl_I_to_int()).  Headers are installed into a separate
   directory, #include <cln/foo.h> instead of <cl_foo.h>.  Applications

 Implementation changes
 ----------------------
 
-* Removed internal copy of mpn/-tree from libgmp-2.0.2.  Configuring with
-  --with-gmp now predepends on an installed libgmp library version 3 or above.
+* Removed internal copy of mpn subdirectory tree from libgmp-2.0.2.
+  Configuring with --with-gmp now relies on an installed libgmp library
+  version 3 or above.  We recommend libgmp-3.1 or newer.
 
 * Adjusted several break-even points to make better use of a faster libgmp and
   better match present-day CPUs.
 
 * Fix several errors for architectures with 64-bit wide words.
-  (Others than Alpha.)
+  (Others than Alpha, which worked already.)
+
+* Fix compilation errors with current GCC-3.0 snapshots.
+
+Other changes

-* Fix compilation errors with current GCC3.0 snapshots.
+* Added package tools: script cln-config and autoconf macro AC_PATH_CLN
