+Changes from 0.8.5 to 0.9.0:
+
+ * The QUICK CLUSTER command has a  /PRINT subcommand which shows
+   the initial cluster centres and the final cluster membership of
+   each case.  The clustering algorithm has also been updated, so
+   as to produce better separated clusters.
+
+ * A Russian localisation has been contributed.
+
+ * The GRAPH command now has a /BAR subcommand to draw barcharts.
+
+ * If the DECIMAL character is set to COMMA then the ',' character
+   will not be treated as a separator by DATA LIST.
+
+ * The graphical user interface (psppire) has been changed as follows:
+
+   - It now uses Gtk+ version 3 instead of version 2.  Accordingly, it has a 
+     somewhat different look and feel.
+
+   - There is now a Graphs menu to access the GRAPH command.
+
+   - The status of dialog box widgets are now preserved between calls
+     to the same dialog box for the same dataset.
+
+   - The dialog box for the Logistic Regression command will now
+     infer that string variables or any varible with a "measure"
+     of Nominal or Ordinal are to be treated as categorical variables
+     and will generate syntax accordingly.
+
+ * The pspp-convert utility can now decrypt encrypted syntax files.
+   The encrypted syntax file format is unacceptably insecure, so to
+   discourage its use PSPP and PSPPIRE do not directly read or write
+   this format.
+
+ * Bug fixes, including the following notable ones:
+
+   - The correlation coefficient in the paired samples t-test
+     procedure is now correctly calculated when presented with
+     weighted data.
+
+   - The ESCAPE subcommand has been removed from GET DATA /TYPE=TXT.
+     For compatibility, the behavior that ESCAPE enabled is now the
+     default and only supported behavior.
+
+   - Rendering of the variable and data sheets in right-to-left locales
+     now works properly.
+
+   - The Mann-Whitney test, when run on a dataset containing values
+     of the group variable, other than those defining the test groups,
+     would incorrectly calculate the ranks.  This has been corrected.
+
+ * The IMPORTCASES subcommand on GET DATA is now ignored, for
+   compatibility.
+
+Changes from 0.8.4 to 0.8.5:
+
+ * The FREQUENCIES and CROSSTABS commands can now generate barcharts.
+
+ * The FACTOR command can now perform PROMAX rotations.
+
+ * SPSS/PC+ system files are now supported on GET and other commands
+   that read SPSS system files.  The pspp-convert program can now read
+   SPSS/PC+ system files.  Writing the obsolete SPSS/PC+ system file
+   format is not supported.
+
+ * SYSFILE INFO can now read SPSS/PC+ system files and SPSS portable
+   files.
+
+ * FREQUENCIES: A bug was fixed where an assertion failure occured
+   when an empty dataset was presented.
+
+ * The GRAPH command is now available.  Initially it supports
+   scatterplots and histograms.
+
+ * The RND operator in expressions now supports additional operands
+   for rounding to values other than integers and to indicate a level
+   of rounding fuzz.  The default rounding fuzz may now be controlled
+   and displayed with SET FUZZBITS and SHOW FUZZBITS, respectively.
+
 Changes from 0.8.3 to 0.8.4:
 
  * Formatting of SYSFILE INFO output was made easier to read.

    - Planned comparisons in ONEWAY ANOVA now correctly handle negative
      T-values.

    - Conformance fixes to Open Document output format.
