+        Improved performance of hash tables.
+
+
+2009-12-18: Version 2.0.5

+2009-10-07: Version 1.3.14
+
+        Added GetRealNamedProperty to the API to lookup real properties
+        located on the object or in the prototype chain skipping any
+        interceptors.
+
+        Fix the stack limits setting API to work correctly with threads. The
+        stack limit now needs to be set to each thread thich is used with V8.
+
+        Remove the high-priority flag from IdleNotification()
+
+        Ensure V8 is initialized before locking and unlocking threads.
+
+        Implemented a new JavaScript minifier for compressing the source of
+        the built-in JavaScript. This removes non-Open Source code from Douglas
+        Crockford from the project.
+
+        Added a missing optimization in StringCharAt.

+        is now the result.
+
+        Error reporting for invalid left-hand sides in for-in statements, pre-
+        and postfix count expressions, and assignments now matches the JSC
+        behavior in Safari 4.
+
+        Follow the spec in disallowing function declarations without a name.
+
+        Always allocate code objects within a 2 GB range. On x64 architecture
+        this is used to use near calls (32-bit displacement) in Code objects.
+
+        Optimized array construction ported to x64 and ARM architectures.
+
+        [ES5] Changed Object.keys to return strings for element indices.
+
+
+2009-09-23: Version 1.3.13
+
+        Fixed uninitialized memory problem.
+
+        Improved heap profiler support.

+        be compatible with other implementations.  Patch by Jan de Mooij.
+
+        Added Object::IsDirty in the API.
+
+        Optimized array construction; it is now handled purely in native
+        code.
+
+        [ES5] Made properties of the arguments array enumerable.
+
+        [ES5] Added test suite adapter for the es5conform test suite.

+        Implemented missing pieces of debugger infrastructure on ARM.  The
+        debugger is now fully functional on ARM.
+
+        Make 'hidden' the default visibility for gcc.
+
+
+2009-09-09: Version 1.3.10
+
+        Fixed profiler on Mac in 64-bit mode.
+
+        Optimized creation of objects from simple constructor functions on
+        ARM.
+
+        Fixed a number of debugger issues.

+        sub strings.
+
+        Fixed bug in code generation for large switch statements on ARM.
+
+        Fixed bug that caused V8 to change the global object template
+        passed in by the user.
+
+        Changed the API for creating object groups used during garbage
+        collection.  Entire object groups are now passed to V8 instead of
+        individual members of the groups.
+
+
+2008-12-03: Version 0.4.5
+
+        Added experimental API support for allocating V8 symbols as
+        external strings.
+
+        Fixed bugs in debugging support on ARM.
+
+        Changed eval implementation to correctly detect whether or not a
+        call to eval is aliased.
+
+        Fixed bug caused by a combination of the compilation cache and
+        dictionary probing in native code.  The bug caused us to sometimes
+        call functions that had not yet been compiled.
+
+        Added platform support for FreeBSD.
+
+        Added support for building V8 on Windows with either the shared or
+        static version of MSVCRT
+
+        Added the v8::jscre namespace around the jscre functions to avoid
+        link errors (duplicate symbols) when building Google Chrome.
+
+        Added support for calling a JavaScript function with the current
+        debugger execution context as its argument to the debugger
+        interface.
+
+        Changed the type of names of counters from wchar_t to char.
+
+        Changed the Windows system call used to compute daylight savings
+        time.  The system call that we used to use became four times
+        slower on WinXP SP3.
+
+        Added support in the d8 developer shell for memory-mapped counters
+        and added a stats-viewer tool.
+
+        Fixed bug in upper/lower case mappings (issue 149).
+
+
+2008-11-17: Version 0.4.4
+
+        Reduced code size by using shorter instruction encoding when
+        possible.
+
+        Added a --help option to the shell sample and to the d8 shell.

+        Fixed a number of ARM simulator issues.
+
+        Fixed bug in out-of-memory handling on ARM.
+
+        Implemented shell support for passing arguments to a script from
+        the command line.
+
+        Fixed bug in date code that made certain date functions return -0
+        instead of 0 for dates before the epoch.
+
+        Restricted applications of eval so it can only be used in the
+        context of the associated global object.
+
+        Treat byte-order marks as whitespace characters.
+
+
+2008-11-04: Version 0.4.3
+
+        Added support for API accessors that prohibit overwriting by
+        accessors defined in JavaScript code by using __defineGetter__ and
+        __defineSetter__.
+
+        Improved handling of conditionals in test status files.
+
+        Introduced access control in propertyIsEnumerable.
+
+        Improved performance of some string operations by caching
+        information about the type of the string between operations.
+
+        Fixed bug in fast-case code for switch statements that only have
+        integer labels.
+
+
+2008-10-30: Version 0.4.2
+
+        Improved performance of Array.prototype.concat by moving the
+        implementation to C++ (issue 123).
+
+        Fixed heap growth policy to avoid growing old space to its maximum
+        capacity before doing a garbage collection and fixed issue that
+        would lead to artificial out of memory situations (issue 129).
+
+        Fixed Date.prototype.toLocaleDateString to return the date in the
+        same format as WebKit.
+
+        Added missing initialization checks to debugger API.
+
+        Added removing of unused maps during GC.
+
+
+2008-10-28: Version 0.4.1
+
+        Added caching of RegExp data in compilation cache.
+
+        Added Visual Studio project file for d8 shell.
+
+        Fixed function call performance regression introduced in version
+        0.4.0 when splitting the global object in two parts (issue 120).
+
+        Fixed issue 131 by checking for empty handles before throwing and
+        reporting exceptions.
+
+
+2008-10-23: Version 0.4.0
+
+        Split the global object into two parts: The state holding global
+        object and the global object proxy.
+
+        Fixed bug that affected the value of an assignment to an element
+        in certain cases (issue 116).
+
+        Added GetPropertyNames functionality (issue 33) and extra Date
+        functions (issue 77) to the API.
+
+        Changed WeakReferenceCallback to take a Persistent<Value> instead
+        of a Persistent<Object> (issue 101).
+
+        Fixed issues with message reporting for exceptions in try-finally
+        blocks (issues 73 and 75).
+
+        Optimized flattening of strings and string equality checking.
+
+        Improved Boyer-Moore implementation for faster indexOf operations.
+
+        Added development shell (d8) which includes counters and
+        completion support.
+
+        Fixed problem with the receiver passed to functions called from
+        eval (issue 124).
+
+
+2008-10-16: Version 0.3.5
+
+        Improved string hash-code distribution by excluding bit-field bits
+        from the hash-code.
+
+        Changed string search algorithm used in indexOf from KMP to
+        Boyer-Moore.
+
+        Improved the generated code for the instanceof operator.
+
+        Improved performance of slow-case string equality checks by
+        specializing the code based on the string representation.
+
+        Improve the handling of out-of-memory situations (issue 70).
+
+        Improved performance of strict equality checks.
+
+        Improved profiler output to make it easier to see anonymous
+        functions.
+
+        Improved performance of slow-case keyed loads.
+
+        Improved property access performance by allocating a number of
+        properties in the front object.
+
+        Changed the toString behavior on the built-in object constructors
+        to print [native code] instead of the actual source.  Some web
+        applications do not like constructors with complex toString
+        results.
+
+
+2008-10-06: Version 0.3.4
+
+        Changed Array.prototype.sort to use quick sort.
+
+        Fixed code generation issue where leaving a finally block with
+        break or continue would accumulate elements on the expression
+        stack (issue 86).
+
+        Made sure that the name accessor on functions returns the expected
+        names for builtin JavaScript functions and C++ callback functions.
+
+        Added fast case code for extending the property storage array of
+        JavaScript objects.
+
+        Ported switch statement optimizations introduced in version 0.3.3
+        to the ARM code generator.
+
+        Allowed GCC to use strict-aliasing rules when compiling.
+
+        Improved performance of arguments object allocation by taking care
+        of arguments adaptor frames in the generated code.
+
+        Updated the V8 benchmark suite to version 2.
+
+
+2008-09-25: Version 0.3.3
+
+        Improved handling of relocation information to enable more
+        peep-hole optimizations.
+
+        Optimized switch statements where all labels are constant small
+        integers.
+
+        Optimized String.prototype.indexOf for common cases.
+
+        Fixed more build issues (issue 80).
+
+        Fixed a couple of profiler issues.
+
+        Fixed bug where the body of a function created using the Function
+        constructor was not allowed to end with a single-line comment
+        (issue 85).
+
+        Improved handling of object literals by canonicalizing object
+        literal maps.  This will allow JSON objects with the same set of
+        properties to share the same map making inline caching work better
+        for JSON objects.
+
+
+2008-09-17: Version 0.3.2
+
+        Generalized the EvalCache into a CompilationCache and enabled it
+        for scripts too.  The current strategy is to retire all entries
+        whenever a mark-sweep collection is started.
+
+        Fixed bug where switch statements containing only a default case
+        would lead to an unbalanced stack (issue 69).
+
+        Fixed bug that made access to the function in a named function
+        expression impossible in certain situations (issue 24).
+
+        Fixed even more build issues.
+
+        Optimized calling conventions on ARM.  The conventions on ARM and
+        IA-32 now match.
+
+        Removed static initializers for flags and counters.
+
+        Improved inline caching behavior for uncommon cases where lazily
+        loading Date and RegExp code could force certain code paths go
+        megamorphic.
+
+        Removed arguments adaption for builtins written in C++.  This
+        makes Array.prototype.push and Array.prototype.pop slightly
+        faster.
+
+
+2008-09-11: Version 0.3.1
+
+        Fixed a number of build issues.
+
+        Fixed problem with missing I-cache flusing on ARM.
+
+        Changed space layout in memory management by splitting up
+        code space into old data space and code space.
+
+        Added utf-8 conversion support to the API (issue 57).
+
+        Optimized repeated calls to eval with the same strings.  These
+        repeated calls are common in web applications.
+
+        Added Xcode project file.
+
+        Optimized a couple of Array operation.
+
+        Fixed parser bug by checking for end-of-string when parsing break
+        and continue (issue 35).
+
+        Fixed problem where asian characters were not categorized as
+        letters.
+
+        Fixed bug that disallowed calling functions fetched from an array
+        using a string as an array index (issue 32).
+
+        Fixed bug where the internal field count on object templates were
+        sometimes ignored (issue 54).
+
+        Added -f option to the shell sample for compatibility with other
+        engines (issue 18).
+
+        Added source info to TryCatches in the API.
+
+        Fixed problem where the seed for the random number generator was
+        clipped in a double to unsigned int conversion.
+
+        Fixed bug where cons string symbols were sometimes converted to
+        non-symbol flat strings during GC.
+
+        Fixed bug in error reporting when attempting to convert null to an
+        object.
+
+
+2008-09-04: Version 0.3.0
+
+        Added support for running tests on the ARM simulator.
+
+        Fixed bug in the 'in' operator where negative indices were not
+        treated correctly.
+
+        Fixed build issues on gcc-4.3.1.
+
+        Changed Date.prototype.toLocaleTimeString to not print the
+        timezone part of the time.
+
+        Renamed debug.h to v8-debug.h to reduce the risk of name conflicts
+        with user code.
+
+
+2008-09-02: Version 0.2.5
+
+        Renamed the top level directory 'public' to 'include'.
+
+        Added 'env' option to the SCons build scripts to support
+        overriding the ENV part of the build environment.  This is mostly
+        to support Windows builds in cases where SCons cannot find the
+        correct paths to the Windows SDK, as these paths cannot be passed
+        through shell environment variables.
+
+        Enabled "Buffer Security Check" on for the Windows SCons build and
+        added the linker option /OPT:ICF as an optimization.
+
+        Added the V8 benchmark suite to the repository.
+
+
+2008-09-01: Version 0.2.4
+
+        Included mjsunit JavaScript test suite and C++ unit tests.
+
+        Changed the shell sample to not print the result of executing a
+        script provided on the command line.
+
+        Fixed issue when building samples on Windows using a shared V8
+        library.  Added visibility option on Linux build which makes the
+        generated library 18% smaller.
+
+        Changed build system to accept multiple build modes in one build
+        and generate separate objects, libraries and executables for each
+        mode.
+
+        Removed deferred negation optimization (a * -b => -(a * b)) since
+        this visibly changes operand conversion order.
+
+        Improved parsing performance by introducing stack guard in
+        preparsing.  Without a stack guard preparsing always bails out
+        with stack overflow.
+
+        Changed shell sample to take flags directly from the command-line.
+        Added API call that implements this.
+
+        Added load, quit and version functions to the shell sample so it's
+        easier to run benchmarks and tests.
+
+        Fixed issue with building samples and cctests on 64-bit machines.
+
+        Fixed bug in the runtime system where the prototype chain was not
+        always searched for a setter when setting a property that does not
+        exist locally.
+
+
+2008-08-14: Version 0.2.3
+
+        Improved performance of garbage collection by moving the
+        function that updates pointers during compacting collection
+        into the updating visitor.  This gives the compiler a better
+        chance to inline and avoid a function call per (potential)
+        pointer.
+
+        Extended the shell sample with a --runtime-flags option.
+
+        Added Visual Studio project files for the shell.cc and
+        process.cc samples.
+
+
+2008-08-13: Version 0.2.2
+
+        Improved performance of garbage collection by changing the way
+        we use the marking stack in the event of stack overflow during
+        full garbage collection and by changing the way we mark roots.
+
+        Cleaned up ARM version by removing top of stack caching and by
+        introducing push/pop elimination.
+
+        Cleaned up the way runtime functions are called to allow
+        runtime calls with no arguments.
+
+        Changed Windows build options to make sure that exceptions are
+        disabled and that optimization flags are enabled.
+
+        Added first version of Visual Studio project files.
+
+
+2008-08-06: Version 0.2.1
+
+        Improved performance of unary addition by avoiding runtime calls.
+
+        Fixed the handling of '>' and '<=' to use right-to-left conversion
+        and left-to-right evaluation as specified by ECMA-262.
+
+        Fixed a branch elimination bug on the ARM platform where incorrect
+        code was generated because of overly aggressive branch
+        elimination.
+
+        Improved performance of code that repeatedly assigns the same
+        function to the same property of different objects with the same
+        map.
+
+        Untangled DEBUG and ENABLE_DISASSEMBLER defines.  The disassembler
+        no longer expects DEBUG to be defined.
+
+        Added platform-nullos.cc to serve as the basis for new platform
+        implementations.
+
+
+2008-07-30: Version 0.2.0
+
+        Changed all text files to have native svn:eol-style.
+
+        Added a few samples and support for building them. The samples
+        include a simple shell that can be used to benchmark and test V8.
+
+        Changed V8::GetVersion to return the version as a string.
+
+        Added source for lazily loaded scripts to snapshots and made
+        serialization non-destructive.
+
+        Improved ARM support by fixing the write barrier code to use
+        aligned loads and stores and by removing premature locals
+        optimization that relied on broken support for callee-saved
+        registers (removed).
+
+        Refactored the code for marking live objects during garbage
+        collection and the code for allocating objects in paged
+        spaces. Introduced an abstraction for the map word of a heap-
+        allocated object and changed the memory allocator to allocate
+        executable memory only for spaces that may contain code objects.
+
+        Moved StringBuilder to utils.h and ScopedLock to platform.h, where
+        they can be used by debugging and logging modules. Added
+        thread-safe message queues for dealing with debugger events.
+
+        Fixed the source code reported by toString for certain builtin
+        empty functions and made sure that the prototype property of a
+        function is enumerable.
+
+        Improved performance of converting values to condition flags in
+        generated code.
+
+        Merged disassembler-{arch} files.
+
+
+2008-07-28: Version 0.1.4
+
+        Added support for storing JavaScript stack traces in a stack
+        allocated buffer to make it visible in shallow core dumps.
+        Controlled by the --preallocate-message-memory flag which is
+        disabled by default.
+
+
+2008-07-25: Version 0.1.3
+
+        Fixed bug in JSObject::GetPropertyAttributePostInterceptor where
+        map transitions would count as properties.
+
+        Allowed aliased eval invocations by treating them as evals in the
+        global context. This may change in the future.
+
+        Added support for accessing the last entered context through the
+        API and renamed Context::Current to Context::GetCurrent and
+        Context::GetSecurityContext to Context::GetCurrentSecurityContext.
+
+        Fixed bug in the debugger that would cause the debugger scripts to
+        be recursively loaded and changed all disabling of interrupts to
+        be block-structured.
+
+        Made snapshot data read-only to allow it to be more easily shared
+        across multiple users of V8 when linked as a shared library.
+
+
+2008-07-16: Version 0.1.2
+
+        Fixed building on Mac OS X by recognizing i386 and friends as
+        IA-32 platforms.
+
+        Added propagation of stack overflow exceptions that occur while
+        compiling nested functions.
+
+        Improved debugger with support for recursive break points and
+        handling of exceptions that occur in the debugger JavaScript code.
+
+        Renamed GetInternal to GetInternalField and SetInternal to
+        SetInternalField in the API and moved InternalFieldCount and
+        SetInternalFieldCount from FunctionTemplate to ObjectTemplate.
+
+
+2008-07-09: Version 0.1.1
+
+        Fixed bug in stack overflow check code for IA-32 targets where a
+        non-tagged value in register eax was pushed to the stack.
+
+        Fixed potential quadratic behavior when converting strings to
+        numbers.
+
+        Fixed bug where the return value from Object::SetProperty could
+        end up being the property holder instead of the written value.
+
+        Improved debugger support by allowing nested break points and by
+        dealing with stack-overflows when compiling functions before
+        setting break points in them.
+
+
+2008-07-03: Version 0.1.0
+
+        Initial export.
+
