+6th August '99: Eight wxGTK 2.1 snapshot released
+
+The new makefile system is not able to produce shared libraries
+on Unix with the exception of Linux - libtool is really great.
+Therefore, the build system defaults to static libraries on
+anything but Linux for now.
+
+Work in wxPen, wxBrush and wxDC to match wxMSW more exactly and
+to implement missing feature etc.
+
+Reimplemented radio buttons. The first of a group of such buttons
+is now marked by having the wxRB_GROUP style.
+
+Complete redesign of all stream classes, including tests for them
+in the samples.
+
+Controls now send the same messages (or more importantly none if
+changed programmatically) as per wxMSW.
+
+New implementation of wxSocket using an intermediate library called
+GSocket. This willl hopefully change in the future.
+
+Reworked in-place editing of wxListCtrl and wxTreeCtrl.
+
+Fixed bug reporting two refreshes when scrolling.
+
+Corrected bug in wxComboBox client data code.
+
+Corrected reported but unverified bug in BMP loading code.
+
+Added a few more methods to wxStaticBitmap.
+
+Integration of wxHTML code in the main library, including wxZIPStream,
+wxFilesystem, wxHTMLHelpController and others.
+
+Added a wrapper for ffile() etc functions.
+
+Updates to wxDynamicLibrary.
+
+New documentation.
+
+New version of wxPython, of course.
+
+Fixed in unenclosed number of other bugs...
