+6th January '2000: wxWindows 2.1.12 released
-There is still a unresolved problem with bitmap to image
+Who has a BigEndian computer (e.g. Sparc or PowerPC) that runs a 15
+and/or 16 bit colour mode? I need this for testing purposes, i.e. this
+person could help me by running a small testprogram and sending
+me the output.
+
+Improved support for GTK's themes, changes in font sizes (and
+the dialogs' ability to react to that) and related things.
+
+Added Calendar control.
+
+Added classes for recoding text (e.g. from Windows encoding to ISO encoding
+and for converting to and from Unicode).
+
+Updated the 64-bit long class (a class that substitutes a 64-bit int
+type on platforms which don't provide a native one).
+
+Added wxImage::Replace() (for replacing colours) and wxImage::GetSubImage().
+Also corrected conversion from mono bitmaps to wxImage.
+
+Added wxBitmap::GetSubBitmap().
+
+Removed some flicker from tree ctrl. Minor optical changes.
+
+Added support for multiple font and colour support for items in
+list ctrls and tree ctrls.
+
+Added support for multiple-selection file dialog.
+
+Implemented wxMenuBar::Insert() and wxMenu::Insert(). There is
+also a Remove() method now, but the GTK doesn't really like that.
+
+Enhanced wxMimeTypesManager to read GNOME and KDE file ending
+bindings to MIME types and icons.
+
+Corrected wxExecute to longer eat up all memory and crash under
+certain circumstances (Karsten Ballueder).
+
+wxGTK no longer gives warnings if the application shows a dialog
+before entering the main loop.
+
+Added string to long/ulong/float conversion routines and some
+more string related things.
+
+Updated documentation for wxFile, wxFFile and their respective
+stream classes. Documented some more stream classes.
+
+Improved wxHTML and its help system. Options dialog, better printing,
+history index. Also implemented more (cite, definition lists, etc).
+
+Corrected wxRegion::GetBox().
+
+Added wxNotebookSizer for combining notebooks and sizers.
+
+Added wxDir class. Useful as a replacement for wxFileGetFirst()
+and wxFileGetNext().
+
+Fixed Y2000 bug in file dialog (sic.)
+
+Added wxStopWatch class.
+
+wxBitmap now derives from wxGDIObject.
+
+Added inlined classes for 2D geometry calculations.
+
+wxSpinCtrl now has its own event, intercepted using EVT_SPINCTRL.
+
+The ODBC classes can now be configured at run-time if they
+are to use forward-only cursors or not.
+
+Added wxDateTime class. The existing classes wxTime and wxDate
+have been reimplemented and corrected using wxDateTime.
+
+Rewritten wxThread to have a flag controlling if the
+thread will delete its C++ class itself ("delete this") or
+if the main thread must delete the C++ class.
+
+Added TIFF reading code, PCX writing code.
+
+Minor compile and build fixes for different architectures.
+
+Added more flags to wxSizer for proportional sizing and
+centering and alignment combination and a wxNotebookSizer.
+
+Added controls to wxToolBars (e.g. combobox) and DeleteTool.
+
+Fixed several problems with buffered streams. Added support for
+setting the end-of-line mode (Mac,DOS,Unix) in wxTextOutputStream.
+
+Added code to send events from one thread to another and added
+function to wake up idle system (needed for sending inter-thread
+events).
+
+Corrected wrongly set flag in dialogs which broke its tab code.
+Also corrected navigation on wxRadioBox.
+
+Corrected segfaults in wxGLCanvas and stupid race when using
+several such canvasses.
+
+Some minor updates to wxSockets. Fixed timeout problem.
+
+Speed-up for new encoding related font code. Minor fixes.
+
+Changed wxListBox to send deferred events, i.e. events emitted by
+the listbox won't get processed before the next idle message.
+
+More minor changes and fixes.
+
+Began work on a new dialog and resource editor (wxDesigner).
+
+7st November '99: wxWindows 2.1.11 released
+
+There is still an unresolved problem with bitmap to image
conversion on big-endian architectures (such as Solaris),
where color values get exchanged. I'd need help on this
-one.
+one as I have no BE computer.
Enlightment has struck the majority of the developers and
they have chosen to use the Linux kernel numbering scheme
will be called 2.1.X.
A lot of discussion has been wasted on how to maintain a
-once released stable version will be maintained. It was
-almost universally agreed that only a commercial entity
-will have the motivation ($$$) to do that - so far there
-is no wxWindows Inc.

Support for GTK 1.0 has been dropped. This version has
-been tested with GTK 1.2.3 and GTK 1.2.6 - it is known
+been tested with GTK 1.2.3 and GTK 1.2.6 - it might
not work with some other versions.
Rewritten the support for multiple-format Drag'n'Drop and
I have reawakened the iODBC code from wxGTK 2.0 so you
can now use wxODBC from wxMSW and wxGTK.
-Several printing things fixed.
+Several printing things fixed. More work needs to be done
+here..
HTML widget and the wxWindows' help system based upon
it have been reorganized and improved for easier use
A number of problems with compressed and socket streams have
been solved.
+Changed behavour of wxTextStream to make use of deliminators
+and default to space as the standard C++ stream do.
+
+Changes to tab traversal code to better reflect MSW code.
+
+Corrected problems with wxGenericValidator and certain controls.
+
+Made default button action work in more cases.

As the old makefile system didn't work, I trashed it and wrote
