- 23-03-2011: version 1.12.1 -

-

- Significant work on apropos and mandocdb. These tools are - now much more robust. - A whatis implementation is now handled as an apropos mode. - These tools are also able to minimally handle pre-formatted pages, that is, those already formatted by another utility - such as GNU troff. -

-

- The man.cgi script is also now available for wider testing. It interfaces with mandocdb manuals cached by catman. HTML output is generated - on-the-fly by libmandoc or internal methods to convert pre-formatted pages. + xx-xx-2012: version 1.12.4

- The mailing list archive for the discuss and tech lists are being hosted by Gmane at gmane.comp.tools.mdocml.user and gmane.comp.tools.mdocml.devel, respectively. + Ingo, can you summarise your changes here?

- Lastly, I'm no longer providing binaries, as nobody has asked for them. + The mandocdb tools (mandocdb, apropos (absorbing whatis), and man.cgi) have been re-written to + use sqlite3 as a database.
