      # Fixed change filter bug in true technology filter wheel. (JM)
      # setINDI updated and improved. (ED)
      # Improved INDI::Mediator functionality. (JM)
      # Fixed buffer reading in INDI::BaseClient. (JM)
      # Add new tutorial for INDI::BaseClient. (JM).

From 0.6.2 to 0.7.0

      # Dynamic renaming of drivers upon run time.
      # Standard helper API to create and utilize INDI clients.
      # Ability to load driver properties from an external XML file.
      # Ability to write/read XML configuration files for driver values to be loaded at run time.
      # Facilitating debugging and simulation of drivers.
      # New C++ framework to facilitate the development of new INDI drivers.
      # Several bug fixes for current drivers and framework.

From 0.6.1 to 0.6.2

# Build related updates.

From 0.6 to 0.6.1

# Updating drivers.xml to comply to new XML structure for group and devices metadata descriptions.

From 0.5 to 0.6

        # Devices:
                + Astrophysics mount is now working.
                + Apogee driver is now working.
        # Features:
                + New libindi structure to streamline development.
                + Drivers using Standard Property _REQUEST WO to make requests. This facilitates scripting and automation of drivers.
                + Updated inter-driver communication with INDI SNOOP.

From 0.4 to 0.5

# Devices:
+ True Technology Filter Wheel
+ SBIG STV

# Features:
     + Added INDI Observer pattern to enable flexible inter-driver communication.
             + getINDI now supports BLOBs.
     + LX200 Drivers use client timestamp to update the telescope internal clock. The old behavior was to use to system's time.
     + Added a new INDI Standard Property: UTC_OFFSET.
     + Dropping threaded INDI server in favor of the slightly better non-threaded version due to performance considerations.

# Bugs
     + SBIG CCD driver was updated to fix problems with CFITSIO.
     + Updated TTY API to include error reporting, in addition to fixing a few bugs.
     + Fixed INDI Mac OSX Crash.

# Known Issues
     + Astrophysics Mount driver (apmount) is not working. It is currently under new development and is intented to be released in the next version as it matures.
             + Meade LPI exposure is locked to 1 second. The Video4Linux support for timed exposures is limited. A fix should be available in the next release.
             + The SBIG driver does not allow autoguiding. When one selects the guider CCD, any exposure on the imaging CCD is cancelled and vice-versa.

From v0.3 to v0.4:

# Devices:

+ SBIG CCD
+ SBIG CFW
+ RoboFocus
+ FLI Precision Focuser
+ Orion Atlas / Sky Scan

# Other:
+ Added more API documentation and revised existing documentation for accuracy and consistency.
+ Fixed UTC correction bug in LX200 driver.
+ Fixed pallete selection in V4L 2 drivers.
+ Fixed bug in eventloop that can cause IE timers to crash.
+ Added variable focus speed for Meade Autostar and GPS.
+ Added CFITSIO, a mature and robust FITS library.
+ New RS232 API for common access routines.

From v0.2 to v0.3:

# Devices:
+ Apogee CCD (Experimental)
+ SkyCommander
+ Temma Takahashi
+ FLI Filter Wheel
+ Meade Lunar Planetary Imager (Experimental)
+ Astrophysics AP

# Other:
+ Support for Video 4 Linux 2
+ Multi-threaded INDI server
+ Binary transfer via BLOB
+ INDI scripting tools
+ Various bug fixing

INDI Library v1.0 conforms to INDI wire protocol v1.6
