-slib-3b1 news:
+			      -=-=-=-=-
 
-  * Larceny (Scheme) is supported.
+slib-3b5 news:
 
- From Ivan Shmakov:
+SLIB's new multidimensional space-filling package has algorithms which
+unify the encoding and decoding of Hilbert and Peano curves of any
+rank, their inverses, and novel variations.  Read the paper at
+<http://arxiv.org/abs/1402.1807>
 
-  * scheme48.init (slib:os-strings): Fixed init for 1.7 (and 1.3).
-  (defmacro:eval, defmacro:load): Fixed.
+Otherwise, slib-3b5 is a minor release.  Details at
+<http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/*checkout*/slib/slib/ChangeLog>
 
- From Rob Browning:
+  * rmdsff.scm (make-cell, integer->coordinates)
+  (coordinates->integer): Don't depend on LETREC* behavior.
 
-  * guile.init (implementation-vicinity): Just (%site-dir).
-  (file-position, gentemp): module-replace!
-  (library-vicinity): Try (%search-load-path "slib/guile.init").
+  * Makefile, mklibcat.scm, rmdsff.scm, slib.texi (space-filling):
+  Added "rmdsff.scm" and documentation.
 
- From Aubrey Jaffer:
+  * phil-spc.scm, schmooz.scm, slib.texi: Because TeXinfo-5 changed
+  the rules, don't allow text between @defun and @defunx.
 
-  * Logo and icon.
+  * usercat: Use local copy of "schmooz.scm".
 
-  * Added program-arguments to System-Interface section in Manual.
