+                  <ul>
+                    <li>Removed deprecated TUTORIAL file.
+                    <li>Removed support for the "showage" configuration variable.
+                    <li>"task stop" can remove the start time from a started task.
+                    <li>"task ghistory" now displays a differently aligned graph, allowing
+                        easier comparison by month of tasks added versus completed and deleted.
+                    <li>"task version" command now reports unrecognized configuration variables,
+                        which may be spelling mistakes or deprecated variables.
+                    <li>"configure --enable-debug" now supported to suppress compiler optimization
+                        to allow debugging.
+                    <li>Allow lower case priorities, and automatically upper case them.
+                    <li>Added support for "due" configuration variable which defines the number
+                        of days in the future when a task is considered due.
+                    <li>Added support for custom reports, comprised of a set of column names and
+                        sort order, with optional filtering in the configuration file.  This
+                        means user-defined reports can be written, and the reports currently
+                        in the configuration file can be renamed.  Several of task's built in
+                        reports have been converted to user-defined reports.
+                    <li>New online documentation for custom reports.
+                    <li>New algorithm for determining when the "nag" message is displayed.
+                    <li>Fixed bug where task hangs with a certain combination of recurring tasks
+                        and shadow files.
+                    <li>Fixed bug with the task sort algorithm, which led to an unstable sequence
+                        when there were only a handful of tasks.
+                    <li>Performance enhanced by eliminating unnecessary sorting.
+                    <li>Task now has a large (and growing) test suite and bug regression tests
+                        to help ensure higher quality releases.
+                    <li>Fixed bug that caused large performance hit during table rendering.
+                    <li>Fixed bug that concatenated a modified description without spaces.
+                    <li>Added new column 'recur' that displays the recurrence period of any
+                        recurring tasks.  This column can be added to any custom report.
+                    <li>Added support for "color.recurring" configuration variable which
+                        specifies the color of recurring tasks.
+                    <li>Added support for "locking" configuration variable that controls whether
+                        file locking is used.
+                    <li>Task export feature now includes recurrence information, removes nested
+                        quotes, and limits output to pending tasks.
+                    <li>Task no longer includes deleted tasks in the summary report (thanks to
+                        Benjamin Tegarden).
+                    <li>Fixed bug that prevented the summary report from properly reporting
+                        recently completed tasks.
+                  </ul>
