+ HREF="apropos.1.html">apropos</A> (absorbing whatis), and <A HREF="man.cgi.7.html">man.cgi</A>) have been re-written to

+ The <A HREF="mdoc.7.html">mdoc(7)</A> to <A HREF="man.7.html">man(7)</A> converter,
+ to be called as <CODE>mandoc -Tman</CODE>, is now fully functional.
+ </P>
+ <P>
+ The <A HREF="mandoc.1.html">mandoc(1)</A> utility now supports the <CODE>-Ios</CODE> (default operating system)
+ input option, and the <CODE>-Tutf8</CODE> output mode now actually works.
+ </P>
+ <P>
+ The <A HREF="mandocdb.8.html">mandocdb(8)</A> utility no longer truncates existing databases when starting to build new ones,
+ but only replaces them when the build actually succeeds.
+ </P>
+ <P>
+ The <A HREF="man.7.html">man(7)</A> parser now supports the <EM>PD</EM> macro (paragraph distance),
+ and (for GNU man-ext compatibility only) <EM>EX</EM> (example block) and <EM>EE</EM> (example end).
+ Plus several bugfixes regarding indentation, line breaks, and vertical spacing,
+ and regarding <EM>RS</EM> following <EM>TP</EM>.
+ </P>
+ <P>
+ The <A HREF="roff.7.html">roff(7)</A> parser now supports the <EM>\f(BI</EM> (bold+italic) font escape,
+ the <EM>\z</EM> (zero cursor advance) escape and the <EM>cc</EM> (change control character)
+ and <EM>it</EM> (input line trap) requests.
+ Plus bugfixes regarding the <EM>\t</EM> (tab) escape, nested escape sequences, and conditional requests.
+ </P>
+ <P>
+ In <A HREF="mdoc.7.html">mdoc(7)</A>, several bugs were fixed related to UTF-8 output of quoting enclosures,
+ delimiter handling, list indentation and horizontal and vertical spacing,
+ formatting of the <EM>Lk</EM>, <EM>%U</EM>, and <EM>%C</EM> macros,
+ plus some bugfixes related to the handling of syntax errors like badly nested font blocks,
+ stray <EM>Ta</EM> macros outside column lists, unterminated <EM>It Xo</EM> blocks,
+ and non-text children of <EM>Nm</EM> blocks.
+ </P>
+ <P>
+ In <A HREF="tbl.7.html">tbl(7)</A>, the width of horizontal spans and the vertical spacing around tables was corrected,
+ and in <A HREF="man.7.html">man(7)</A> files, a crash was fixed that was triggered by some particular unclosed <EM>T{</EM> macros.
+ </P>
+ <P>
+ For mandoc developers, we now provide a <A HREF="tbl.3.html">tbl(3)</A> library manual and <CODE>gmdiff</CODE>,
+ a very small, very simplistic groff-versus-mandoc output comparison tool.
