-        </listitem>
-        <listitem>
-          <para>
-            There are now lazy versions of the parsing modules
-            <literal>Text.XML.HaXml.ParseLazy</literal>
-            (a lazy non-validating XML parser) and
-            <literal>Text.XML.HaXml.Html.ParseLazy</literal>
-            (a lazy HTML parser).
-          </para>
-        </listitem>
-        <listitem>
-          <para>
-            There are lazy versions of two of the example tools,

-            <literal>Text.XML.HaXml.Haskell2Xml</literal> and
-            <literal>Text.XML.HaXml.Xml2Haskell</literal> have been
-            removed, with <literal>Text.XML.HaXml.XmlContent</literal>
-            replacing them.
-            You must now use <literal>{-! derive : XmlContent !-}</literal>
-            rather than <literal>{-! derive :Haskell2Xml !-}</literal>
-            to have instances derived for your classes.
-          </para>
-        </listitem>
-        <listitem>
-          <para>
-            Now also provides the
-            <literal>Text.ParserCombinators.HuttonMeijer</literal>
-            monadic parser combinator library.
-          </para>
-        </listitem>
-        <listitem>
-          <para>
-            Provides another new set of parser combinators, as well as a lazy
-            variant, a variant that carries around state, and a
-            variant that does both. The modules are
-            <literal>Text.ParserCombinators.Poly</literal>,
-            <literal>Text.ParserCombinators.PolyLazy</literal>,
-            <literal>Text.ParserCombinators.PolyState</literal> and
-            <literal>Text.ParserCombinators.PolyStateLazy</literal>
-            respectively.
-            It also provides
-            <literal>Text.ParserCombinators.TextParser</literal>, which
-            is the <literal>Poly</literal> parser combinators
-            specialised for strings.
-          </para>
-        </listitem>
-        <listitem>
-          <para>
-            Now provides a SAX-like parser in
-            <literal>Text.XML.HaXml.SAX</literal>.
-          </para>
-        </listitem>
-        <listitem>
-          <para>
-            Now provides a module
-            <literal>Text.XML.HaXml.TypeMapping</literal>, which
-            defines an explicit representation for Haskell types.
-            This allows generation of a DTD from a Haskell value.
-          </para>
-        </listitem>
-        <listitem>
-          <para>
-            The <literal>Posn</literal> type has been pulled out from
-            <literal>Text.XML.HaXml.Lex</literal> into its own module
-            <literal>Text.XML.HaXml.Posn</literal>. Some helper
-            functions are also exported.

-          <para>
-            The APIs to the pre-existing modules have also substantially

-            There is a new module <literal>Monad.ForEach</literal>

-        </listitem>
-        <listitem>
-          <para>
-            The <literal>Monad.ExceptT</literal> module now also exports
