-ikiwiki 2.6 released with [[toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[toggleable text="""
-   * Various minor bug fixes for silly mistakes in the code, thanks to the
-     various reviewers.
-   * Fix problems with previewing in the graphviz plugin. Thanks,
-     HenrikBrixAndersen.
-   * Allow raw html in the rst plugin.
-   * Add --set-option command line switch.
-   * pagetemplate: don't display template name
-   * Add rel=tag attribute to tag links, supporting that microformat, as well
-     as allowing them to be styled specially. Thanks, NicolasLimare.
-   * Add sessioncgi hook.
-   * Move blog form code out of CGI.pm and into the inline plugin.
-   * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
-   * Updated French translation from Cyril Brulebois. Closes: #[437181](http://bugs.debian.org/437181)
-   * The toc directive doesn't work well or make sense inside an inlined page.
-     Disable it when the page with the toc is nested inside another page.
-   * Apply a patch from NicolasLimare adding modification date tags to rss and
-     atom feeds, and also changing the publication time for a feed to the
-     newest modiciation time (was newest creation time).
-   * The patch also adds dcterms:creator to rss items that have a known author.
-   * Support pagespec "functions" with no parameters, like included() in the
-     conditional plugin.
-   * Add time=mtime option to postsparkline.
-   * Fix --libdir to work at the command line.
-   * Plugins can now be written as standalone external programs, which can
-     be written in any language that can do XML RPC.
-   * Change yet again how unhandled and escaped preprocessor directives are
-     re-output onto the page. Hopefully I finally got it right..
-   * Fix bug in deletion/move during edit code introduced in 1.44. Need to take
-     the underlaydir into account.
-   * Fix bug when editing file from underlaydir, need to rcs\_add it even though
-     a page creation isn't occuring.
-   * Various minor fixes and stylistic improvements suggested by Perl::Critic.
-   * Applied Jeremie Koenig's pluggable editpage buttons patch:
-     - add a title to the editpage form;
-     - pass a reference to the list of buttons to the formbuilder\_setup
-       hooks, so we can add ours;
-     - relax asumption about the possible submit values (use "Save Page"
-       explicitly);
-     - de-hardcode the submit buttons from the editpage template
-       (This was needed for compatability with a bug in CGI::FormBuilder
-       3.0401, but ikiwiki already needs a newer version.)
-   * Pass buttons to all other formbuilder\_setup hooks too.
-   * Add color parameter to postsparkline. Closes: #[438900](http://bugs.debian.org/438900)
-   * Add proper Homepage field to Debian package (needs uber-new dpkg).
-   * Add monotone support, contributed by William Uther.
-   * Avoid ugly gettext messages if LANG is empty. Closes: #[439035](http://bugs.debian.org/439035)
-   * Added teximg plugin to generate images from latex code.
-     Contributed by Patrick Winnertz as a GSoC project.
-   * Call the formbuilder hook for the edit page.
-   * Call decode\_form\_utf8 before running formbuilder\_setup hooks.
-   * Add editdiff plugin contributed by Jeremie Koenig.
-   * Fix it to not leak path info.
-   * Add embed plugin, which allows embedding content from google maps, video,
-     calendar, and youtube. Normally, the htmlsanitiser eats these since they
-     use unsafe tags, the embed plugin overrides it for trusted sites.
-   * The googlecalendar plugin is now deprecated, and will be removed
-     eventually. Please switch to using the embed plugin."""]]

+ikiwiki 2.8 released with [[toggle text="these changes"]]
+[[toggleable text="""
+   * Redid the debian/copyright file, using the proposed new copyright file
+     format. Included many details not previously listed in the old file.
+   * inline: add feedonly option, set feedonly=yes to get only the feed button
+     but not inline the pages.
+   * meta: Support license and copyright information. The information will
+     be shown in the page footer. HTML will also be inserted that should
+     support the rel=license microformat as well as the HTML spec's
+     rel=copyright.
+   * table plugin: Actually specify the delimiter when parsing CSV.
+   * table plugin: The previous version broke WikiLinks inside quoted values.
+     Fix this by linkifying CSV data after parsing it, while DSV data is still
+     linkified before parsing."""]]
