+Changes in version 2.8.0
+
+ * HTML backend completely rewritten to generate semantically rich XHTML
+ using the xhtml package.
+
+ * New default CSS based on the color scheme chosen for the new Haskell
+ wiki, with a pull-out tab for the synopsis.
+
+ * Theme engine based on CSS files. Themes can be switched from the
+ header menu. (New flags --built-in-themes and --theme. The latter
+ is an alias for --css which now has extended semantics).
+
+ * Markup support for executable examples/unit-tests. To be used with an
+ upcoming version of the DocTest program.
+
+ * Addition of a LaTeX backend.
+
+ * Frames-mode can be turned on/off from the header menu.
+
+ * Path to source entities can be specified per package, so that source
+ links work for cross-package documentation.
+
+ * Support for a second form of enumerated lists (1. 2. etc).
+
+ * Additions and changes to the Haddock API.
+
+ * New flag --no-tmp-comp-dir to tell Haddock to write and pick up
+ compilation files (.o, .hi, etc) to/from GHC's output directory instead
+ of a temporary directory.
+
+ * Various bug fixes.
