+New in 0.3.2
+* June 2, 2003
+
+* Moved quite a bit of low level model management and "state"
+ management code from FlightGear into SimGear and did a substantial
+ amount of restructuring and dependency clean up in the process.
+ Created a "scene" subdirectory with sub-subdirectories for material
+ management, basic model and model animation management, sky
+ rendering, and low level loaders for the "TerraGear" tile object format.
+* Removed support of the flat shaded and non-textured material
+ property varients. You can still do these things, but extra states
+ are no longer set up automatically.
+* Removed 3d clouds from the default build ... these need a maintainer
+ or better yet, a complete plib-based rewrite.
+* Moved the FlightGear sound effect manager code over to SimGear.
+* Updated the cloud layer surface to better follow the inverted bowl
+ shape.
+* Much work on cloud/sky coloring, and also much work on
+ sunset/sunrise coloring.
+* Fixed an obscure bug in cloud texture loading which caused each
+ cloud texture to be loaded 5 times. Ouch!
+* Various class and function renaming to make them better fit into the
+ standard SimGear naming scheme.
+* Added some additional convenience functions to the SGPath class.
+* Upgraded the distributed version of metakit.
+* FreeBSD fixes.
+* Irix fixes (better STL/ISO C++ header support.)
+* Mingwin fixes.

+
+New in 0.0.18
+* April 20, 2002
+
+* Created a src/libs subdirectory for several packages that need to be
+ installed by the user but are used by many other packages and may already
+ be installed. So we just bundle the source separately as a convenience
+ if the user needs to build and install these.
+* Upgrade to zlib-1.1.4 (security fix)
+* Upgrade to metakit-2.4.2-32.tar.gz (latest upstream release)
+* Added support for point objects in the scenery file format.
+* Additions to the binary file format to make it *much* more flexible.
+ For each major primative type: points, triangles, fans, and strips, you
+ can specify an index list of vertices, normals, colors, and texture
+ coordinates. You can skip any of these you like to save on space.
+* Added support for new file features in the binary -> ascii scenery file
+ decoder.
+* Various code clean ups.
+* Separate XML I/O operations into a separate header file.
+* Major property manager rewrite, then lots of followup cleaning and
+ improvements.

+New in 0.0.16
+* July 12, 2001
+* Various changes to the property manager implimentation to better support
+ dumping out the desired portions of the property tree to file.
+* Don't compile the metakit demos by default (causes problems for Irix)'
+* Other various tweaks for Irix.
+* Added a virtual destructor to XMLVisitor to fix a warning message.
+* Check for valid hostname lookup in sg_socket.cxx
+* Add a function to return modified julian date without creating an
+ entire SGTime class. This avoids an extraneous warning about not
+ being able to find a timezone.
+* Created a mailing list for cvs commit messages.
+* Fixed a potential array under/over run bug in interpolator.cxx
+* Removed all references to SGValue from the property manager. Added
+ support for an "archive" bit in the property manager to control
+ which values get written out.
+* Added SGCommandState class so that commands can compile and save
+ copies of their arguments for efficiency if they are called multiple
+ times.
+* Added Brian Baul's "tr" tiled rendering low level support library.
+ This along with some higher level code in flightgear allows us to do
+ ultra-hires tiled screen dumps suitable for large format printers.
