+<H3> Release notes for Moodle 1.0.5 </H3>
+
+<P>  New features (since 1.0.4):   </P>
+
+<UL><DL>
+<DT> Configuration
+<DD> Most variables are now stored in the database and modifed using an 
+     admin form - this means config.php can be much shorter (only 8 items).
+     The GD version is now auto-detected on all versions of PHP.  
+     New authentication plug-ins are now supported (auth directory).
+
+<DT> Language improvements
+<DD> We have three new languages!  French, Finnish and Portuguese (Brazil).
+     The authors are on the credits page in the Moodle documentation.
+     Also, languages can now be easily edited directly via an admin web page.
+
+<DT> Theme improvements
+<DD> The standard theme code has been tidied up.  It is now easier to 
+     hack them and make your own themes. Existing themes are 100% 
+     compatible.  One new feature is that the home page can have a 
+     different look to the other pages.  A new standardlogo theme has 
+     been added that shows you how to put your logo on the front page 
+     (eg like moodle.com does) 
+
+<DT> User improvements
+<DD> The user profile editing page now has a better layout.  
+     The list of participants now switches to various "condensed modes" 
+     when displaying larger classes.  All user listings now support 
+     sorting by column.  The admin user can now delete (disable) user 
+     accounts so that the user isn't displayed anywhere.  Individual 
+     users can choose their own display language (so that all web pages 
+     and mailouts will be in that language).
+
+<DT> Activity improvements
+<DD> The "recent activity" box now also shows journal entries and 
+     submitted assignments and surveys.  The guest user can no longer 
+     edit *anything* at all.  A new reading type called "HTML text" 
+     allows experienced users to use pure HTML.
+
+<DT> Miscellaneous
+<DD> Many tweaks to the interface and small bugs fixed.
+
+</DL></UL>
