 			VEGAN RELEASE VERSIONS 
 		       	======================
 
+                       CHANGES IN VEGAN 1.17-11
+
+    - This is a maintenance release which improves the robustness of
+      several functions but introduces no new important features.
+
+    - cca/rda/capscale: handling of aliased and other zero-rank
+      components changed. They are no longer made NULL and left
+      undisplayed, but now they are shown as zero rank. The general
+      output also changed so that proportions of inertia are only
+      shown if there are conditions or constrains, but not for
+      unconstrained analysis. The capscale() function no longer shows
+      species scores if these are unvailable. Several support
+      functions more robust.
+
+    - nobs: R 2.13.0 introduced generic function nobs() to find the
+      number of observations, and this releae provides nobs() for
+      several vegan results. However, this does not make vegan
+      dependent on R 2.13.0, but it can be used with older functions
+      as well.
+
+    - specaccum: gained arumgent 'groups' which can be used to find
+      the number of species in subsets of the data.
