+TODO:
+- [2012/12/06] Redefinition of \thebibliography not compatible with
+ packages like natbib. Figure out how to fix this.
+
+v2.1: 2013/09/25 (Francois Pitt)
+- Changed definition of dedication environment to simply format its
+ paragraph flush right with no header -- this also helps fix a bug
+ where LaTeX complains of a "missing \item" when both dedication and
+ acknowledgement sections are used (reported by Bardia Bina).
+
+v2.0: 2012/06/01 (Francois Pitt)
+- Rewritten to use standard packages: `setspace' to handle line spacing
+ and `geometry' for page layout. Some options and macros have been
+ renamed from v1.8, hence the change of major version number -- this
+ version is _not_ fully backward-compatible because of these changes.
+- Renamed `oneandahalfspaced' option to `onehalfspaced' (for consistency
+ with `setspace' package).
+- Removed `singlespaced', `oneandahalfspaced', `doublespaced', and
+ `spacing' environments -- use environments from `setspace' package
+ instead.
+- Renamed `spacednotes' option to `standardspacednotes' and added
+ `singlespacednotes' option.
+- Added options `cleardoublepagestyleempty', `cleardoublepagestyleplain'
+ and `cleardoublepagestylestandard' to set the default style for
+ cleared pages, and new macros `\clearthesisdoublepage' and
+ `\clearstandarddoublepage'.
+- Changed default options: now 1 1/2-spaced and LaTeX default font size.
+- Renamed `utthesis' page style to `thesis'.
+- The abstract is no longer put on a right-side page by default.
+- Cleaned up the code and comments throughout.
+
+v1.8: 2000/02/20, 1999/12/10 (Francois Pitt)
+- Minor formatting changes to comments.
+- Fixed circular definition problem with \currenttextsize that caused
+ TeX to run out of input stack memory.
+
+v1.7: 1999/06/02, 1999/05/20, 1999/05/13 (Francois Pitt)
+- Minor change to the format of the date printed on every page with the
+ `draft' option.
+- Minor cosmetic change to the word "DRAFT" printed on the corners of
+ every page with the `draft' option.
+- Made `draft' mode doublespaced by default (it just makes more sense
+ for actual drafts; suggested by Eric Joanis).
+- Changed \currenttextsize from a "\newcommand" to a "\let".
+- Added "known bugs" above.
+
+v1.6: 1999/03/06 (Francois Pitt)
+- Minor change: replaced ``\ifx\empty#1\else...\fi'' with
+ ``\ifx\empty#1\empty\else...\fi'' (the former works only by accident
+ while the latter is logically correct).
+
+v1.5: 1999/02/17 (Francois Pitt)
+- Fixed missing page numbers and headers by removing redefinition of
+ \cleardoublepage (reported by Robert Bernecky 1999/02/04 and Nedialko
+ Nedialkov 1999/02/12).
+- Added \clearemptydoublepage and \clearplaindoublepage commands.
+- Removed redefinitions of \tableofcontents, \listoftables, and
+ \listoffigures because they already call \clearpage or
+ \cleardoublepage by default.
+- Removed "\setcounter{tocdepth}{2}" from the page layout section (moved
+ to `ut-thesis.tex' where it belongs).
+- Added \ignore command to comment out parts of a file.
+- Put version macros at the top of the file.
+- Changed order of revision comments.
+
+v1.4: 1998/11/05 (Francois Pitt)
+- Fixed `abstract' environment so that it is really put on a separate
+ page, and changed "\newpage\endgroup" at the end to
+ "\par\endgroup\newpage", which is more logical.
+- Changed `acknowledgements' environment so that it is *not* put on a
+ separate page, allowing users to add other text on that page (e.g.,
+ `dedication' described next).
+- Added `dedication' environment based on `acknowledgements'
+ (suggested by Robert Bernecky 98/11/04).
+- Changed page layout so that it is defined in terms of the physical
+ page size instead of being hard-coded for letter paper (8.5" x 11").
+
+v1.3: 1998/11/01 (Francois Pitt)
+- Fixed `thebibliography' so page headers are generated in the same
+ style as for the rest of the thesis.
+- Swapped \endgroup and \newpage in definition of `abstract' and
+ `acknowledgements' environments, to fix problem with adjusted line
+ spacing in `abstract'.
+- Renamed `\currentsize' to `\currenttextsize'.
+- Added \cleardoublepage at the end of preliminary sections, so that
+ page 1 of main text is on right-hand side.
+
+v1.2: 1998/10/20 (Francois Pitt)
+- Changed `spacenotes' option to `spacednotes' to have more consistently
+ named options.
+- Fixed spacing between main text and footnotes.
+- Fixed `singlespaced' environment, which didn't seem to work at all
+ (reported by Nedialko Nedialkov 98/10/12): Actually, created a
+ `newspacing' environment, which takes a parameter, and based
+ `singlespaced', `oneandahalfspaced', and `doublespaced' environments
+ on `newspacing'.
+
+v1.1: 1998/10/01 (Francois Pitt)
+- Fixed bug that caused footnotes to make following tables single-spaced
+ (reported by Philip Edmonds 98/09/30).
+- Made spacing of marginal notes and footnotes the same.
+- Added option to control line spacing of notes.
+- Added options to control the size of margins.
+- Changed names of temporary macros used in redefinitions to avoid
+ conflicts with existing names.
+
+v1.0: 1998/09/29 (Francois Pitt)
+- Initial version.
