Version 0.2-4 (2013-11-01)

    o Added "aquifer" package demo.
    
    o "NAMESPACE" file is now automatically generated by "roxygen2".

    o Changed dependency on package "quadprog" from "Depends" to "Imports".

    o Changes on Fortran code to conform to the Fortran 90/95 standard 
      (CRAN policy requirement). The implementation of additional grid types is
      postponed until Fortran compilers used at CRAN (specially in the case of 
      Mac OS X) support the required Fortran 2003 features (mainly type-bound 
      procedures).
      
    o Added explicit dependencies to src/Makevars to allow parallel make.


Version 0.2-3 (2013-10-19)

    o Changed the default value of "hat.bin" argument to FALSE in "locpol" and 
      "predict.locpol.bin".
         
    o Added a default value for "maxlag" argument in "svar.bin", "svariso", 
      "np.svar", "svarisonp" and "svarisohcv".
         
    o Changed the default value of "nx" argument in "fitsvar.sb.iso" 
      to avoid "Error in solve.QP(Dmat, dvec, Amat, bvec) :
      matrix D in quadratic function is not positive definite!".
      
    o Updated documentation.
     

Version 0.2-2 (2013-10-15)

    o Added "bin.den" S3 class and methods and "as.bin.den" generic function.

    o Added "earthquakes" and "aquifer" data sets.
    
    o Added a "dimnames" argument to "grid.par" function 
      (constructor of the class of the same name).
    
    o Minor changes on "binning" and "interp.data.grid" functions.


Version 0.2-1 (2013-09-12)

    o Completed the package documentation (using "roxygen2").

    o Changes on "svarmod", added "svarmodels" ("svarmod.R").

    o Changes on "as.variomodel" and "as.vgm" ("npsp-geoR.R" and "npsp-gstat.R", 
      interoperability with geoR and gstat, respectively).

    o Some minor changes to pass (for the first time) R CMD check without notes or warnings
      (".onLoad" -> ".onAttach", ...).


Version 0.2 (2013-06-25)

    o Major changes in R functions "locpol.default", "locpol.bin.data" and "svarisonp":
    
        - Added a new option to set the degree of the local polynomial used.
        
        - Added a new option to compute (partial) derivative estimates.
        
        - Added an option to enable/disable binning hat matrix computation.   

    o Added an option to enable/disable data hat matrix computation in "predict.locpol.bin".    

    o Major changes in fortran code ("lp_module.f90", "svar_module.f90", "linreg_module.f90"):
    
        - Weighted linear regression allows for rank-deficient matrices 
          ("DGELSYR" fortran routine, a modification of LAPACK "DGELSY"). 

        - New functionalities (degree, derivatives,...)
        
        - Changes on Fortran-R interfaces.
