-<!--	This is the [math syntax specification][math]. -->
 
-*	*Jan. 22*  With very minimal changes, Maruku now works in JRuby. 
-	It is very slow, though.
+#### Changes in the development version (**not yet released**)  ####     {#last}
 
-	Some benchmarks:
+#### Changes in 0.5.5  ####     {#stable}
 
-	*	G4 1.5GhZ, Ruby 1.8.5:
-	
-			Maruku (to_html): parsing 0.65 sec + rendering 0.40 sec = 1.04 sec
-			Maruku (to_latex): parsing 0.70 sec + rendering 0.21 sec = 0.91 sec
+*	Features:
 
-	*	G4 1.5GhZ, JRuby 1.9.2:
-
-			Maruku (to_html): parsing 4.77 sec + rendering 2.24 sec = 7.01 sec
-			Maruku (to_latex): parsing 4.04 sec + rendering 1.12 sec = 5.16 sec
-
-*	*Jan. 21*  Integration of Blahtex. PNG export of formula and alignment works
-	ok in Mozilla, Safari, Camino, Opera. IE7 is acting strangely.
-
-*	Support for LaTeX-style formula input, and export to MathML. 
-
-	[Jacques Distler] is integrating Maruku into Instiki (a Ruby On Rails-based wiki software), as to have a Ruby wiki with proper math support. You know, these physicists like all those funny symbols.
-
-	*	To have the MathML export, it is needed to install one of:
+	*	Input of HTML numeric entities:
 	
-		* 	[RiTeX]   (`gem install ritex`) 
-		* 	[itex2MML] supports much more complex formulas than Ritex.
-		* 	PNG for old browser is not here yet. The plan is to use
-			BlahTeX.
+			Examples of numeric character references include &#169; or &#xA9; 
+			for the copyright symbol, &#913; or &#x391; for the Greek capital 
+			letter alpha, and &#1575; or &#x627; for the Arabic letter alef.

-		    -u, --[no-]unsafe                Use unsafe features
-		    -b                               Break on error
-		    -m, --math-engine ENGINE         Uses ENGINE to render MathML
-		        --pdf                        Write PDF
-		        --html                       Write HTML

-		        --inspect                    Shows the parsing result
-		        --version                    Show version
-		    -h, --help                       Show this message
-
-*	Other things:
+*	Bug fixes:
 	
-	*	Created the embryo of an extension system. Please don't use it
-		yet, as probably the API is bound to change.
+	*	Alt text was ignored for images.
+	*	Fixed minor bug in reading HTML inside paragraph.
+	*	Changed rules for block-level HTML to make it similar to Markdown.pl. 
+		For example:
+		
+			Paragraph
+			<div></div>
+		
+		will be translated to 
 
-	*	There are a couple of hidden, unsafe, features that are not enabled by default.
+			<p>Paragraph
+			<div></div></p>
+			
+		while this:
+			
+			Paragraph
+			
+			<div></div>
+		
+		becomes
+		
+			<p>Paragraph</p>
+		
+			<div></div>
 
-#### Changes in 0.5.4 ####  {#stable}
+*	**Pending bugs**: there are some problems when parsing lists. It is difficult
+	to get it right because the spec is very fuzzy. At the moment, list items 
+	cannot be indented by more than 1 space.
