-o Frontmatter: Preface, Toc, Introduction, Terminology ~ 40 pages
-o Mainmatter:
- Class commands and environments, etc. ~ 380 pages

+Changes (2023/08/08)
+
+o memoir v3.8
+
+-- now requires a LaTeX format from 2021/06/01 or newer.
+
+ The class will halt compilation (in all interaction modes) if the
+ format is too old.
+
+-- \titleref is now an alias for \nameref (autoloaded).
+ The class have been adjusted to provide info for sectionals and
+ normal captions.
+
+ The titleref package will remain marked as being emulated
+ as it shouldn't be used with the class (and haven't been updated in
+ 20+ years).
+
+-- nameref paches in the class are no longer needed
+
+-- label handling for subcaptions and friends have been reimplemented.
+
+-- no longer re-defines \label as per request of the LaTeX Team.
+
+-- booktabs is now loaded as a required package instead of being
+ embedded
+
+-- Fixed typo in the caption of figure 2.13. Thanks to Vladimir
+ G. Ivanović for the report.
+
+-- removed etex loading (was only loaded for kernels from before
+ 2015). The noetex class option removed as well.
+
+-- reimplemented \pagenumbering(*) as a single macro
+
+-- additions to \@xfloat is now done via a cmd/after hook if the
+ format version supports it.
+
+-- Definition of \theHpoem changed to \providecommand
+
+-- The \theH<counter> macros defined in memoir was modified to use
+ \the\value{counter} instead of just \arabic{counter} as some
+ packages change \arabic.
+
+-- \toclevel@part was actually never fixed in v3.7.19, now it is
+
+-- added \@currentcounter in various places that manually
+ set \@currentlabel (primarily footnote constructions). Reported by
+ Gustavo Barros.
+
+-- replaced hardcoded \footnotesize in \verbfootnote by \foottextfont
+
+-- made a small change to footnote formatting. Now one can use
+ \raggedright in \footnotetext to get raggedright footnotes. Use
+ with care as \raggedright does change various paragraph settings
+
+-- replaced etoolbox loading by xpatch (which loads etoolbox) as it
+ can patch more.
+
+-- Added a Hook named memoir/subcaption/aftercounter which is executed
+ after \refstepcounter in \subcaption, \subbottom, \subtop
+ etc. Requested by Gustavo Barros.
+
+-- Redefinition of \@setsize removed, was copied from setspace.sty
+ which states that it was only needed for some 209 packages.
+
+
+The following macros have been disabled (to either give a warning or
+an error).
+
+-- \namerefon and \namerefoff => warning (now always on)
+
+-- \currenttitle => error (given that many things are now "titled",
+ relying on this to get the current "title" is too risky, use proper
+ \label+\titleref instead)
+
+-- \theTitleReference => warning (was used in the old implementation
+ of \titleref and \currenttitle)
+
+
+o memhfixc v1.21
+
+-- All nameref patches have been removed
+-- provided \subfigureautorefname
+
