Changes in version 0.1.8 (2025-03-30)                  

    o   The vignette is now premade and rendered as Rnw via pdfpage to
	minimize the need for TeXLive package at build / install time
	(Dirk)

    o   Windows builds now use the GNU GSL when Rtools is 42 or later
	(Tomas Kalibera in #25)

                 Changes in version 0.1.7 (2025-03-22)                  

    o   The CI setup was updated to use run.sh from r-ci (Dirk).

    o   The windows build was updated to GSL 2.7, and UCRT support was
	added (Jeroen in #16).

    o   README.md links and badges have been updated

    o   Continuous integration actions have been updated several times

    o   The DESCRIPTION file now uses Authors@R as mandated

    o   Use of multiple cores is eased via a new helper function
	reflecting option mc.core or architecture defaults, used in
	tests

    o   An inline function has been added to avoid a compiler nag

    o   Support for exponential RNG draws zrexp has been added, the
	internal uniform generator is now also exposed via zruni

    o   The vignette bibliography has been updated, and switched to
	DOIs

    o   New package zigg is now mentioned in DESCRIPTION and vignette

                 Changes in version 0.1.6 (2020-10-20)                  

    o   Several typos were corrected in the vignette (Blagoje Ivanovic
	in #9).

    o   New getters and setters for internal state were added to resume
	simulations (Dirk in #11 fixing #10).

    o   Minor updates to cleanup script and Travis CI setup (Dirk).

                 Changes in version 0.1.5 (2018-06-10)                  

    o   Description rewritten using doi for references.

    o   Re-setting the Ziggurat generator seed now correctly re-sets
	state (Ralf Stubner in #7 fixing #3)

    o   Dynamic registration reverts to manual mode so that
	user_norm_rand() is visible as well (#7).

    o   The vignette was updated to accomodate pandoc 2* [CRAN
	request].

                 Changes in version 0.1.4 (2017-09-27)

    o   Dynamic symbol registration is now enabled.

                 Changes in version 0.1.3 (2015-07-26)                  

    o   Use the SHR3 generator for the default implementation just like
	Leong et al do, making our default implementation identical to
	theirs (but 32- and 64-bit compatible)

    o   Switched generators from float to double ensuring that results
	are identical on 32- and 64-bit platforms

    o   Simplified builds with respect to GSL use via the RcppGSL
	package; added a seed setter for the GSL variant

    o   Corrected use of fabs() to abs() on integer variables, with a
	grateful nod to Brian Ripley for the hint (based on CRAN checks
	on the beloved Slowlaris machines)

    o   Accelerated Travis CI tests by relying exclusively on r-cran-*
	packages from the PPAs by Michael Rutter and myself

	practices, and R-devel CMD check --as-cran checks

    o   Add a new generator deploying R's unif_rand which faciliates
	use of Ziggurat as the user-supplied generator for N(0,1)

    o   Update a 'local' demo comparing normal distribution RNGs from
	Boost, C++11 and Armadillo none of which are particularly
	speedy

    o   Add declaration to import a symbol from Rcpp to NAMESPACE to
	ensure proper instantiation with the upcoming Rcpp version

                 Changes in version 0.1.1 (2013-12-23)

    o   Testing framework added with a standard RNG test, a new and
	similar test particular for Normal distributions, and the Chi^2
	test from the Leong et al paper (JSS, 2005)

    o   New demo() functionality showing the three added tests.

    o   Code has been reorganized into separate headers implementing
	the generators, using a common (virtual) base class; and
	accessors and tests in the src/ directory.
