 	      NEW FEATURES AND BUG FIXES IN VEGAN 1.17-3
 
+    - MOStest: new set functions to implement Mitchell-Olds & Shaw
+      test for the location of the quadratic extreme in a given
+      interval. The test can also be used for the location of the
+      optimum in the Gaussian response model. In addition to the basic
+      test, there are Fieller and deviance profile methods for the
+      confidence interval of the location of the quadratic extreme.  
+
+    - mrpp & meandist: mrpp() does not evaluate the Classification
+      Strength (CS) of Van Sickle & Hughes (J. N. Am. Benthol. Soc.,
+      19: 370-384; 2000) any longer. The old version misinterpreted
+      the weighting scheme of CS, and with correct scheme there is no
+      exact relationship between CS and the corresponding MRPP
+      statistic and therefore permutation tests are not available. CS
+      is still evaluated in meandist(), but with corrected weighting
+      scheme, and no tests are performed. Reported by Dr John Van
+      Sickle (Corvallis OR). 
+
+    - msoplot: legend text was in wrong order. Reported by Daniel
+      Borcard. 
+
+    - vegdist: Marti Anderson variant of the Gower distance (method =
+      "altGower") should be without range standardization. Reported by
+      Sergio Garcia. 
+
+    - ordiellipse: labels disappeared in their background with 'draw =
+      "polygon"'. 
+
+    - predict.cca and predict.rda: gained argument 'newdata' for 'type
+      = "response"' and 'type = "working"'.

     - adonis: handles ties correctly.
 
     - anova.cca and permutest.cca: permutations of cca result is
