+
+       * lib/properties.[ch]: split in a lot of pieces:
+
+       * lib/prop_*.[ch] (NEW): all property types are now first-class
+       objects, inheriting from the original abstract Property type.
+       * lib/propdesc.c (NEW): property description handling routines
+       * lib/propoffsets.c (NEW): property offset handling routines
+       * lib/proplist.c (NEW): property list handling routines
+       * lib/propobject.c (NEW): property list <-> object routines
+       * lib/propregistry.c (NEW): holds the PropertyType-->PropertyOps
+       relations.
+       * lib/propinternals.h: prototypes for stuff not usually needed by
+       the outside of StdProps.
+       * lib/Makefile.am: a lot of new files have been added...
+
+       THE ABOVE CHANGES ARE MAJOR CHANGES AND AFFECT THE WHOLE TREE, IN
+       BOTH INTERFACES AND RUN-TIME STABILITY.
+
+       * lib/plug-ins.h: bumped up DIA_PLUGIN_API_VERSION
+
+       * lib/object.h: removed the incestuous relationship with
+       properties.h' contents. Now a Property list is a GPtrArray -->
+       object interface change !
+
+       * app/app_procs.c/app_init(): removed a disabled call to a
+       non-existent routine. Added a call to stdprops_init().
+
+       * objects/Makefile.am: disabled the construction of EML. I'm not
+       touching these until a certain issue is solved (or this module
+       removed).
+       * app/group.c:
+       * objects/**/*.c except objects/EML/*: adapted all stdprop-using
+       objects to the interface changes.
+
+       * app/disp_callbacks.c: killed a warning.
+       * lib/dia_xml.[ch]: sprinkled "const" modifiers.
+
+       * app/commands.c:
+       The macros PROP_VALUE_* have disappeared. Adapted to using the new
+       interface.
+
+       * plug-ins/dxf/dxf-import.c:
+       * plug-ins/xfig/xfig-import.c:
+       PROP_VALUE_* macros have been removed. Converted to the new API.
+
+       * plug-ins/python/**/*: I gave up converting this; I can't
+       compile --with-python (problems with object.h defined both by us
+       and by Python). I'll gladly help whomever cares to fix it !
+       (or, fix it myself if someone tells me how to compile it).
+
+       * configure.in: added the UNICODE-related progress defines.
+
+       * configure.in:
+       * lib/geometry.h: On Solaris and perhaps other systems, finite()
+       is defined in ieeefp.h rather than in math.h. Patch from Andrew
+       Halper <ashalper acm org> with further modifications, isinf() is
+       provided by -lsunmath (sunmath.h).
+
+       * lib/font.c: conditionally disabled Lars' debugging messages.
+       Bracketed the definition of DiaFontFamily with #ifdef HAVE_FREETYPE.

        * lib/bezier_conn.h:
