# Changes to this documentation set

The version of the documentation will be simply the versionnumber of this file. So there can be jumps in the versionnumber, but who cares :)

So the current version is $Revision: 1.30 $. The starting version, will be affectionately known as the root version.

### Version 1.29 - 1.30

- Changed link for Jaguar Server page

### Version 1.27

- NEG and NOT opcodes description were completely (respectively partly) wrong. (Thanks to David A. Dahl for pointing out the errors)
- Typo fixed in cartridge.html
- Removed "timings" from the 68k.html, which I never was very happy about and which probably confuses more than it enlightens.
- Chapter 3.7 was accidently hidden by a faulty HTML code. (Thanks to David A. Dahl for stumbling over this)
- Changed email address for Klaus :).

### Version 1.26

- Worked feedback from National Semiconductor (thanks J. Heitmeir) into the Cartridge dox.

- Changed stupid notation errors in IMACN and IMULT, that were supposed to simulate sign extension
- Added some Voodoo into the Blitter bugs
- Added some Voodoo for the DSP IRQ routine

- Totally forgot to include the shift/rotation anchors into the HMTL table in risc_doc.html. Since v1.13 and noone noticed!
- Add some verbosity to terse RISC opcode descriptions.
- Removed awful bug from INC registers in the Blitter Dox (Steve Scavone was helpful there)

### Version 1.21-1.24

- Totally changed the EEPROM cartridge doc, which sucked big time and is now probably the best of the package
