+<h3>TODO/Wish list</h3>
+<ul>
+<li>Add support for grouping members, and document then as a group.
+<li>Support for K&R-style function arguments.
+<li>More ouput formats: suggested are info format and RTF format.
+<li>Reintroduction of the multi-column class list (and file list) to quickly 
+    select a class or file
+<li>Split long lists in an index to a set of smaller lists.
+<li>Add a nice graphical front-end for creating and modifying the 
+    configuration file (it should be flexible enough to quickly add new options).
+<li>Improve the search index generation, so it uses less memory and
+    is easier to get running.
+<li>Generate code metrics (Anyone know a good book about code metrics?)
+<li>Add features that you think are missing... So if you know any that are
+    not yet listed here, please let me know.
+</ul>
+
+<h3>Features scheduled for version 0.5</h3>
+<ul>
+<li>Proper support for namespaces.
+<li>Include LaTeX style formulas in LaTeX and HTML output (in HTML as a gif).
+<li>Proper support for template classes, members, functions and specializations.
+<li>Multi-lingual support.
+<li>Generation of class diagrams (clickable image maps in HTML, eps images in
+    postscript).
+<li>Add generator for man pages format.
+</ul>
+
+<h3>Version 0.4</h3>
+
+<h4>New features:</h4>
+<ul>
+<li>LaTeX output generation.
+<li>Full JavaDoc support. 
+<li>Build-in C-preprocessor for correct conditional parsing of source code
+    that is read by Doxygen.
+<li>Build-in HTML to LaTeX converter. This allows you to use HTML tags in
+    your documentation, while doxygen still generates proper LaTeX output.
+<li>Many new commands (there are now more than 60!) to document
+    more entities, to make the documentation look nicer, and to include 
+    examples or pieces of examples.
+<li>Enum types, enum values, typedefs, #defines, and files can now be 
+    documented.
+<li>Completely new documentation, that is now generated by Doxygen.
+<li>A lot of small examples are now included.
+</ul>
+<h4>Bug fixes:</h4>
+<ul>
+<li>A lot of parser bugs are fixed.
+<li>Improved support for documenting C code.
+</ul> 
+
+<h3>Version 0.3</h3>
+<h4>New features:</h4>
+<ul>
+<li>A search engine <a href="doxysearch_usage.html">doxysearch</a>, 
+    that allows you to search through the generated documentation.
+<li>A configuration file instead of command-line options. A default 
+    configuration file can be generated 
+    by <a href="doxygen_usage.html">doxygen</a>.
+<li>Added an option to generate output for undocumented classes.
+<li>Added an option to generate output for private members.
+<li>Every page now contains a condensed index page, allowing much faster 
+    navigation through the documentation.
+<li>Global and member variables can now be documented.
+<li>A project name can now given, which will be included in the 
+    documentation.
+</ul>
+
+<h4>Bug fixes:</h4>
+<ul>
+<li>Fixed bug when files with the same name but in different directories
+    are used as include files.
+<li>Template classes now work.
+<li>Inner classes now work.
+<li>Fixed a bug regarding unrelated functions and <code>\fn</code>.
+<li>Fixed parse bug with <code>/**/</code> comments 
+<li>Fixed a bug regarding inline friend functions.
+<li>The list of all members now also contains the undocumented members.
+<li>Special documentation is now removed from code blocks.
+<li>Doxygen should compile on Sun Solaris (with <code>CC</code>), HP-UX (with 
+    <code>CC</code>), Irix (with DCC) and Linux (with <code>GCC</code>)
+<li>Fixed several minor bugs.
+</ul>
+
+<h3>Version 0.2</h3>
+<h4>New features:</h4>
+<ul>
+<li>Blocks of code are now parsed. Function calls and variables are
+    replaced by links to their documentation if possible.
+<li>Special example documentation block added. This can be used to
+    provide cross references between the documentation and some example code.
+<li>Documentation blocks can now be placed inside the body of a class.
+<li>Documentation blocks with line range may now be created using 
+    special <code>//!</code> C++ line comments.
+<li>Unrelated members can now be documented. A page containing a
+    list of these members is generated.
+<li>Added an <code>\include</code> command to insert blocks of source code
+    into the documentation.
+<li>Warnings are generated for members that are undocumented.
+<li>You can now specify your own HTML headers and footers for the
+    generated pages.
+<li>Option added to generated indices containing all external classes
+    instead of only the used ones.
+</ul>
+
+<h4>Bug fixes:</h4>
+<ul>
+<li>Fixed a link generation problem with mixed case filenames are used.
+<li>Made doxygen a little more portable. 
+    (doxygen should now compile on Linux (with g++) and HP-UX (with CC))
+<li>Fixed a bug in err() function.
+<li>Fixed a problem with the type cast operator.
+<li>Removed some typo's from the docs.
+<li>Several small bug fixes and enhancements.
