Legend:
 * Changes of existing features or bugfixes
 + New features

ObjFW 0.7.1 -> ObjFW 0.8, 14.10.2015

 + An insanely huge amount of new APIs
 + New classes: OFHTTPServer, OFINICategory, OFINIFile, OFInflate64Stream,
   OFInflateStream, OFMapTable, OFRIPEMD160Hash, OFSHA224Hash, OFSHA256Hash,
   OFSHA384Hash, OFSHA512Hash, OFSettings, OFStdIOStream, OFSystemInfo,
   OFUDPSocket, OFZIPArchive, OFZIPArchiveEntry
 + New utils: ofzip, ofhash, ofhttp
 + Support for -[forwardingTargetForSelector:] on a lot of platforms
   (see PLATFORMS.md)
 * OFHTTPRequest: Split into OFHTTPRequest and OFHTTPClient
 * Rename OFHTTPRequestReply to OFHTTPResponse
 * OFDictionary now uses OFMapTable internally
 + Highly randomized, DoS-resistant hashtables (different seed per hashtable,
   additionally rotated by a random number of bits)
 * Reworked exceptions API that explicitly passes errno around
 + OFHTTPClient: Keep-alive and Basic Authorization support
 + Support for (and use of) ObjC generics, nullability and kindof
 + Fast path for resolving classes when using GCC (Clang doesn't need the fast
   path, as it directly references classes)
 * OFStreamObserver: Refactored and renamed to OFKernelEventObserver (as it is
   no longer limited to streams)
 + Support for SjLj and SEH exceptions
 + Support for DOS/DJGPP, Nintendo Wii, Nintendo DS and PlayStation Portable
 + Support for bare metal (in other words: running without any OS; tested on
   ARM)
 + Full support for ARM64 on iOS
 + Full MessagePack implementation (the new MessagePack version that supports
   strings)
 + Backtraces for uncaught exceptions
 + Bridge to Cocoa now part of ObjFW
 * Default depth limit for XML and JSON parser
 + Optional support for outputting JSON5 (default is JSON)
 * 16 bit selector UIDs are now the default
 * BOOL replaced with bool everywhere (except where required by the ABI)
 * Fix for a nasty bug in -[replaceCharactersInRange:withString:]
 * Fix for a nasty bug in atomic ops
 * OFTLSKey replaced with +[OFThread threadDictionary]
 * Documentation improvements (for example, imports should now be shown
   correctly everywhere and many APIs have been documented in more detail)
 + Property introspection
 * OFProcess: Use posix_spawnp if available
 * OFProcess improvements for Win32
 + epoll support for OFKernelEventObserver
 * Rewritten OFMD5Hash and OFSHA1Hash
 * Reworked OFTLSSocket API (easier verification)
 * Unicode support updated to Unicode 8.0
 * OFURL: Proper escaping and unescaping

ObjFW 0.7 -> ObjFW 0.7.1, 12.11.2012
 + Support for Haiku
 * Autorelease pools now work properly without __thread
 * Incorrect framework version in Xcode project fixed
 * Documentation fixes and improvements
 * Blocks now only use 16 bits for the reference count in order to avoid
   problems with newer Clang versions
