 ==========
 These entries tell you what was added, fixed, or improved in each version as compared to the previous one.  In case you haven't noticed, a version number roughly corresponds to the release date of that version in `YYYY.MM.DD[.N]' format, where `.N' goes `.2', `.3', etc. if there are multiple versions on the same day.

 ----------
-A fix to some out-of-bounds accesses reported by Milan Tomic (see the comment under `BigUnsigned::divideWithRemainder').  `BigUnsigned::multiply' and `BigUnsigned::divideWithRemainder' implementations neatened up a bit with the help of a function `getShiftedBlock'.  I (finally!) introduced a constant `BigUnsigned::N', the number of bits in a `BigUnsigned::Blk', which varies depending on machine word size.  In both code and comments, it replaces the much clunkier `8*sizeof(Blk)'.  Numerous other small changes.

There's a new conversion routine `easyDataToBI' that will convert almost any format of binary data to a `BigInteger'.
 
 I have inserted a significant number of new comments.  Most explain unobvious aspects of the code.

 ---------
 After months of inactivity, I fixed a bug in the `BigInteger' division routine; thanks to David Allen for reporting the bug.  I also added simple routines for decimal output to `std::ostream's, and there is a demo that prints out powers of 3.
