Might be useful to drop a request into the RQCC, or see if there's one 
there already and bump it.

Cross-platform parity is a key feature of LiveCode, so if this is 
working in Windows now it would be very nice to see this in the Mac 
menubar and in Gnome panels.

Somewhat specialized in that most of the items in the Release Notes 
become entries in the searchable Dictionary once they move from 
"experimental" to a supported implementation.

And before we go into another 80 replies about how we need more thorough 
indexing in the Dictionary, yes, that's in development now, with the 
hope of having that in the final release of v8.

The release notes back to v4.5.0 are available on the Downloads page:
http://downloads.livecode.com/livecode/

Anything older than that probably isn't very interesting, in that things 
have either been added to the Dictionary by now or dropped altogether.

Still, if someone wants to take this on maybe it's a good community project.
