+* Added a `hard_wrap` configuration variable to make all newline characters
+ in the text become `<br>` tags in the HTML output. By default, according
+ to the standard Markdown syntax these newlines are ignored unless they a
+ preceded by two spaces. Thanks to Jonathan Cohlmeyer for the implementation.
+
+* Improved the parsing of list items to fix problematic cases that came to
+ light with the addition of `hard_wrap`. This should have no effect on the
+ output except span-level list items that ended with two spaces (and thus
+ ended with a line break).
+
+* Added a `code_span_content_func` configuration variable which takes a
+ function that will convert the content of the code span to HTML. This can
+ be useful to implement syntax highlighting. Although contrary to its
+ code block equivalent, there is no syntax for specifying a language.
+ Credits to styxit for the implementation.
+
+* Fixed a Markdown Extra issue where two-space-at-end-of-line hard breaks
+ wouldn't work inside of HTML block elements such as `<p markdown="1">`
+ where the element expects only span-level content.
+
+* In the parser code, switched to PHPDoc comment format. Thanks to
+ Robbie Averill for the help.

+PHP Markdown Lib 1.6.0 (23 Dec 2015)
+
+Note: this version was incorrectly released as 1.5.1 on Dec 22, a number
+that contradicted the versioning policy.
+
+* For fenced code blocks in Markdown Extra, can now set a class name for the
+ code block's language before the special attribute block. Previously, this
+ class name was only allowed in the absence of the special attribute block.
+
+* Added a `code_block_content_func` configuration variable which takes a
+ function that will convert the content of the code block to HTML. This is
+ most useful for syntax highlighting. For fenced code blocks in Markdown
+ Extra, the function has access to the language class name (the one outside
+ of the special attribute block). Credits to Mario Konrad for providing the
+ implementation.
+
+* The curled arrow character for the backlink in footnotes is now followed
+ by a Unicode variant selector to prevent it from being displayed in emoji
+ form on iOS.
+
+ Note that in older browsers the variant selector is often interpreted as a
+ separate character, making it visible after the arrow. So there is now a
+ also a `fn_backlink_html` configuration variable that can be used to set
+ the link text to something else. Credits to Dana for providing the
+ implementation.
+
+* Fixed an issue in MarkdownExtra where long header lines followed by a
+ special attribute block would hit the backtrack limit an cause an empty
+ string to be returned.
+
+
+PHP Markdown Lib 1.5.0 (1 Mar 2015)
+
+* Added the ability start ordered lists with a number different from 1 and
+ and have that reflected in the HTML output. This can be enabled with
+ the `enhanced_ordered_lists` configuration variable for the Markdown
+ parser; it is enabled by default for Markdown Extra.
+ Credits to Matt Gorle for providing the implementation.
+
+* Added the ability to insert custom HTML attributes with simple values
+ everywhere an extra attribute block is allowed (links, images, headers).
+ The value must be unquoted, cannot contains spaces and is limited to
+ alphanumeric ASCII characters.
+ Credits to Peter Droogmans for providing the implementation.
+
+* Added a `header_id_func` configuration variable which takes a function
+ that can generate an `id` attribute value from the header text.
+ Credits to Evert Pot for providing the implementation.
