23 <h3>Bugs Squashed</h3>
25 <li>Fixed link clicking in Firefox and Chrome (and probably Safari and Opera).

113 <h3>Features Deprecated</h3>
115 <li>Blerg.httpd (the standalone HTTP Blërg server) is now deprecated.
116 It will not get new features and has been removed as a default build
117 target. Libmicrohttpd is just too obtuse to continue to support. Look
118 for a FastCGI version in the future, or maybe a new standalone version
