-[h4 Milestone 1: Released March 31st 2006]
-
-* Implement gamma/beta/erf functions along with their incomplete counterparts.
-* Generate high quality test data, against which future improvements can be judged.
-* Provide tools for the evaluation of infinite series, continued fractions, and
-rational functions.
-* Provide tools for testing against tabulated test data, and collecting statistics
-on error rates.
-* Provide sufficient docs for people to be able to find their way around the library.
+* Added Policy based framework that allows fine grained control
+over function behaviour.
+* [*Breaking change:] Changed default behaviour for domain, pole and overflow errors
+to throw an exception (based on review feedback), this
+behaviour can be customised using __Policy's.
+* [*Breaking change:] Changed exception thrown when an internal evaluation error
+occurs to boost::math::evaluation_error.
+* [*Breaking change:] Changed discrete quantiles to return an integer result:
+this is anything up to 20 times faster than finding the true root, this
+behaviour can be customised using __Policy's.
+* Polynomial/rational function evaluation is now customisable and hopefully
+faster than before.
+* Added performance test program.

+[h4 Milestone 4: Second Review Candidate (1st March 2007)]
 
-* Implement preview release of the statistical distributions.
-* Added statistical distributions tutorial.
-* Implemented root finding algorithms.
-* Implemented the inverses of the incomplete gamma and beta functions.
-* Rewrite erf/erfc as rational approximations (valid to 128-bit precision).
-* Integrated the statistical results generated from
-the test data with Boost.Test: uses a database of expected
-results, indexed by test, floating point type, platform, and compiler.
-* Improved lgamma near 1 and 2 (rational approximations).
-* Improved erf/erfc inverses (rational approximations).
-* Implemented Rational function generation (the Remez method).
+* Moved Xiaogang Zhang's Bessel Functions code into the library,
+and brought them into line with the rest of the code.
+* Added C# "Distribution Explorer" demo application.
