+
+
+	-
+	  * nsf.c (NsfOUplevelMethod, NsfOUpvarMethod,
+	  NsfCallstackFindCallingContext): Reform of uplevel and
+	  upvar methods, based on the recent feedback by Zoran.
+	  First, uplevel and upvar methods, as well as [current
+	  callinglevel] now behave consistently (re frame skipping
+	  for mixin and filter transparency). If there is no
+	  innermost enclosing proc frame, the innermost non-proc
+	  (e.g., namespace) frame is selected (rather than a "#0"
+	  as default). Second, argument handling for both uplevel
+	  (i.e., level sniffing in multi-arg case) and upvar (e.g.,
+	  made silent TCL_ERROR for invalid argument arities
+	  explicit) have been fixed.
+	  * Object.man, methods.test: Added documentation for both methods
+	  (Object.man) and tests. [baee0c34]

+
+2019-03-20  Gustaf Neumann  <neumann@wu-wien.ac.at>
+
+
+	- handle ticket #3 on sourceforge: explicit "next" call in ensemble
+	  leads to unwanted "unknown" handler call [156a37fe]

+

+
+  ...
+
+- nx::serializer:
+
+  ...
+
+- Documentation:
+
+  * Added documentation of uplevel and upvar methods.
+
+- Continued testing: NSF is now continuously built and tested under
+  Linux, macOS, and Windows against different Tcl targets, using
+  different tool chains (gcc, clang, MinGW, MSVC). For this purpose,
+  there is now an official GitHub mirror at:
+
+	    https://github.com/nm-wu/nsf
+
+  Build and test reports are available from:
+
+	    https://travis-ci.com/nm-wu/nsf

+  * Tcl 8.7:
+
+    Support for Tcl 8.7a1 and the upcoming, unreleased Tcl 8.7a2
+    (core.tcl.tk branch "core-8-branch"). NSF compiles and its
+    regression tests execute successfully.
+
+  * Misc (esp. NSF/C):
+
+The detailed changelog is available at
