-0.5.7 - .../01/2009 - Pàdoa release
+0.5.8 - 02/12/2009 - toward the 1.x series
+       * Complete rewriting of paramodulation code (thanks to Maxime Denes),
+         that is abstract over the data type embedded in the fisrt order
+         theory the procedure is able to handle. 
+         Can be used as a stand-alone prover, and partecipated
+         to the CASC22 beating many older systems ;-)
+       * new (compact) kernel:
+         * toplevel fixpoints 
+         * height (inter object dependency) driven conversion
+         * compact metavariable representation
+         * experimental irrelevant arguments handling in convesion
+           (in the spirit of proof irrelevance)
+         * explicit predicative universes
+       * new refiner:
+         * bi-directional type inference
+         * unification hints
+         * implicit vector (expands to the right number of implicits)
+       * new basic tactics:
+         * new type for tactics, with a global view on the ongoing proof
+         * heavily based on the refiner
+         * work with terms labelled with their contexts
+       * new auto (prolog like) proof search tactic:
+         * works on a set of goals
+         * non uniform context support:
+           * arbitrary tactics can be called to attack a goal (hardcoded 
+             at the OCaml level), for now just apply and intro
+       * new installation:
+         * the standard library (now we have two of them) is not
+           distributed pre-compiled
+         * standard library .ma files can be included from everywhere since
+           they are in a standard path
+         * including a file of the standard library triggers its compilation
+           in the user's space
+       * gtksourceview2 based text widget (lablgtk >= 2.14)
+
+0.5.7 - 15/02/2009 - Pàdoa release
+       * are_convertible bug solved, arguments of application where 
+         compared allowing cumulativity. This allowed to prove Type0=Type1.
+       * cases tactic speedup in the simplest case of an inductive type 
+         hose right parameters have all to be abstracted when the outtype is
+         built
+       * maction support added to output notation (adopted for "=" that 
+         expands to "= \sub T" to show the equality type)
        * generation of derived lemmas rewritten to be based on hooks that
          are triggered every definition
        * composition of coercions fixed, more composite are generated
