+Summary of important user-visible changes for statistics 1.1.3:
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ ** The following functions are new in 1.1.3:
+
+ copularnd mvtrnd
+
+ ** The functions mnpdf and mnrnd are now also usable for greater numbers
+ of categories for which the rows do not exactly sum to 1.
+
+Summary of important user-visible changes for statistics 1.1.2:
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ ** The following functions are new in 1.1.2:
+
+ mnpdf mnrnd
+
+ ** The package is now dependent on the io package (version 1.0.18 or
+ later) since the functions that it depended of from miscellaneous
+ package have been moved to io.
+
+ ** The function `kmeans' now accepts the 'emptyaction' property with
+ the 'singleton' value. This allows for the kmeans algorithm to handle
+ empty cluster better. It also throws an error if the user does not
+ request an empty cluster handling, and there is an empty cluster.
+ Plus, the returned items are now a closer match to Matlab.
+
+Summary of important user-visible changes for statistics 1.1.1:
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ ** The following functions are new in 1.1.1:
+
+ monotone_smooth kmeans jackknife
+
+ ** Bug fixes on the functions:
+
+ normalise_distribution combnk
+ repanova
+
+ ** The following functions were removed since equivalents are now
+ part of GNU octave core:
+
+ zscore
+
+ ** boxplot.m now returns a structure with handles to the plot elemenets.
+
+Summary of important user-visible changes for statistics 1.1.0:
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ ** IMPORTANT note about `fstat' shadowing core library function:
+
+ GNU octave's 3.2 release added a new function `fstat' to return
+ information of a file. Statistics' `fstat' computes F mean and
+ variance. Since MatLab's `fstat' is the equivalent to statistics'
+ `fstat' (not to core's `fstat'), and to avoid problems with the
+ statistics package, `fstat' has been deprecated in octave 3.4
+ and will be removed in Octave 3.8. In the mean time, please
+ ignore this warning when installing the package.
+
+ ** The following functions are new in 1.1.0:
+
+ normalise_distribution repanova combnk
+
+ ** The following functions were removed since equivalents are now
+ part of GNU octave core:
+
+ prctile
+
+ ** The __tbl_delim__ function is now private.
+
+ ** The function `boxplot' now accepts named arguments.
+
+ ** Bug fixes on the functions:
+
+ harmmean nanmax nanmin regress
+
+ ** Small improvements on help text.
