+Release 1.79
+
+These are the release notes for the DocBook DSSSL Stylesheets. At a minimum,
+this file attempts to document changes to the public APIs and provide a
+high-level overview of the features added in each release.
+
+Release 1.79
+
+This release contains fixes for a number of long-standing bugs. See the
+WhatsNew file for more details. Among the user-visible changes are:
+
+ * HTML stylesheets.
+
+ o The doctype definition in the HTML output now contains a system
+ identifier, required for better parsing in contemporary browsers.
+
+ o CSS decoration has been added to procedure steps.
+
+ o Uses of <VAR> in HTML output (often rendered in italic) have been
+ changed to something more appropriate
+
+ o The last character of the version was cut off in previous releases.
+
+ o Processing instruction parsing has been made more robust against
+ arbitrarily formed PIs.
+
+ o Callout graphics and admonition graphics share a single variable,
+ %stock-graphics-extension%.
+
+ o The value of the VALIGN attribute has been corrected to MIDDLE instead
+ of CENTER.
+
+ * Print stylesheets.
+
+ o Admonition titles and contents are kept together.
+
+ o Programlistings with callouts now honor the width attribute.
+
+ o The rendering of othercredit has been made more useful.
+
+ o Excessive after spacing when a listitem contains multiple paras or
+ verbatim environments has been fixed.
+
+ o Empty ulinks don't generate footnotes, so they are now omitted from the
+ footnote counting.
+
+ o Some cases where components were restarting the page numbering were
+ fixed.
+
+ o article-titlepage-recto-elements has been made to match the HTML
+ version.
+
+ o Support for revdescription inside revison on titlepages has been added.
+
+ * General.
+
+ o "pc" is now allowed as abbreviation for "pica".
+
+ o The return value of my-debug has been fixed.
+
+ o A Bosnian translation has been added.
+
+ o A Bulgarian translation has been added.
