-= 1.0.3 - 28-Sep-2007
-* Fixed a subtle but dangerous copy-on-write bug in the API#call method.
-
-= 1.0.2 - 28-Sep-2007
-* Fixed a bug in an internal struct member that was causing segfaults. Thanks
-  go to Lars Olsson for the spot.
-* Fixed the 'install' task in the Rakefile. This only affected native builds,
-  not the prebuilt binary.
-* Added a few more tests.
-
-= 1.0.1 - 27-Sep-2007
-* Functions declared with a void prototype no longer require an explicit nil
-  argument to fulfill the arity requirement. You can still call them with an
-  explicit nil if you wish, however.
-* Fixed the gemspec for the native build.

-= 1.0.0 - 14-Sep-2007
+= 1.0.4 - 26-Oct-2007
+* Fixed a bug where methods that returned pointers ('P') could choke if the
+  resulting pointer was 0 or NULL. In this case, nil is now returned instead.
+* Tweak to the extconf.rb file that helps the gem build it from source
+  properly.

-= Description
-   This is a drop-in replacement for the Win32API library currently part of
-   Ruby's standard library.
-	
-= Synopsis
-   require 'win32/api'
-   include Win32
-   
-   buf = 0.chr * 260
-   len = [@buf.length].pack('L')
-   
-   GetUserName = API.new('GetUserName', 'PP', 'I', 'advapi32')
-   GetUserName.call(buf, len)
-   
-   puts buf.strip
-   
-= Differences between win32-api and Win32API
-   * Argument order change. The DLL name is now last, not first.
-   * Removed the 'N' and 'n'. Always use 'L' for longs now.
-   * Sensible default arguments for the prototype, return type and DLL name.
-   * Reader methods for the function name, prototype, return type and DLL.
-   * Removed the support for lower case prototype and return types. Always
-     use capital letters.
-   
-= Developer's Notes
-   The current Win32API library that ships with the standard library has been
-   slated for removal from Ruby 2.0 and it will not receive any updates in the
-   Ruby 1.8.x branch. I have far too many libraries invested in it to let it
-   die at this point.
-   
-   In addition, the current Win32API library was written in the bad old Ruby
-   1.6.x days, which means it doesn't use the newer allocation framework.
-   There were several other refactorings that I felt it needed to more closely
-   match how it was actually being used in practice.
-   
-   The first order of business was changing the order of the arguments. By
-   moving the DLL name from first to last, I was able to provide reasonable
-   default arguments for the prototype, return type and the DLL. Only the
-   function name is required now.
-   
-   There was a laundry list of other refactorings that were needed: sensical
-   instance variable names with proper accessors, removing support for lower
-   case prototype and return value characters that no one used in practice,
-   better naming conventions, the addition of RDoc ready comments and,
-   especially, callback support.
-   
-   Most importantly, we can now add, modify and fix any features that we feel
-   best benefit our end users.
-
-= Documentation
-   The source file contains inline RDoc documentation. If you installed
-   this file as a gem, then you have the docs.
-   
-= Warranty
-   This package is provided "as is" and without any express or
-   implied warranties, including, without limitation, the implied
-   warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.
-   
-= Known Bugs
-   None that I'm aware of. Please submit any bug reports to the project page
-   at http://www.rubyforge.org/projects/win32utils.
