+  * Added Control-Alt-Up/Down bindings to the mouse focus example rc.xml
+  * Don't raise on clients in the client context in the mouse focus example

+    window is focused
+  * Fixes for frame decorations layout
+  * Fixes for forcing window sizes to fit on the screen.  Don't resize windows
+    if they are a user-specified size (USSize) or if they are non-normal
+    windows.  (Fix Rox pinboard mapping across multiple monitors)

+  * Give iconified windows a faded icon in the focus cycling (Alt-Tab) dialog,
+    and in the client list menus
+  * Make it more difficult to select items by accident in parent menus when it
+    changes direction.  Moving the mouse only selects menu entries for a few
+    levels of open menus.  Mouse clicks will select menu entries further down.
+  * Add Simplified Chinese translation
+  * Set the current theme in the OB_THEME root property for other applications
+  * Notify ksplash when we have started up if dcop is installed

+
+3.3.993:
+  * Update for Russian translation
+  * Added Dutch translation
+  * Fix for choosing badly sized icons from the window for the window cycling
+    dialog (and other things). (Fixes Pidgin icon)
+  * Open child (transient) windows on the current desktop if they don't have
+    a direct parent, or if the parents are not all on some other desktop.
+    (Fixes Pidgin and Gimp dialogs appearing on the wrong desktop)
+  * Make windows fit within the available space when they are first created,
+    if they are not user-positioned. (Fix xpdf making itself bigger than the
+    space inside the struts, and hiding behind them).
+  * Don't let child (transient) windows steal focus when the situation is
+    ambiguous
+  * Fix bevels and borders display in the titlebar
+  * Set the _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW hint properly, when nothing is focused (This
+    is the proper fix for libwnck pagers.)
+  * Fallback focus immediately during iconify animation in all cases (was
+    missing RevertToParent case)
+  * Fix new frame elements being given 0 sizes for very small windows
+  * Send iconified windows to the bottom of the focus order so you can
+    Alt-Shift-Tab to get back what you just iconified. This makes things more
+    predictable.
+  * Show the hostname for remotely run programs in iconified titles
+  * Stop focus flicker when sending windows to a desktop and following them,
+    and when changing desktops with an omnipresent window focused
+  * Empty desktop names in the configuration file are not used, so you can set
+    a name on the second desktop without having to set one on the first
+  * Make control key work for menu accelerators like it does for mouse
+    clicking and hitting enter
+  * Add C-A-Up/Down mouse bindings to switch desktops, similar to the
+    C-A-Left/Right/Up/Down keyboard bindings
+
+3.3.992:
+  * Don't move mouse focus when the mouse is over the focus cycling dialog
+  * Fixes for positioning of frame decoration elements
+  * Update for Brazilian Portuguese translation
+  * Improvements in how decorations respond for maximized windows. (If they
+    can't be resized don't "hide" the resizing contexts)
+  * Updated Italian translation
+  * Added Czech translation
+  * Fix for applications that do weird things with modal windows (Make sure
+    you can focus cycle to them)
+  * Updated Spanish translation
+  * Fix for programs using the old WM-spec, and not setting unused fields to
+    0 in _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW messages (Rox pinboard)
+  * Fixes for default rc.xml configuration file. Updated comments and comment
+    out the applications section in an xml compatible way.
+  * Update for Portuguese translation
+  * Fix support for window gravity (eg xterm -geometry -0+0)
+  * Fix for libwnck with iconify animation (Unmap the parent of the client's
+    window)
+  * Force the top left corner of new windows onto the screen area, if the
+    position wasn't requested by the user (Fix xpdf and others hiding their
+    titlebar under a panel)
+  * Fix for determining text geometry from Pango
+  * Save the desktop layout and names in the session, and restore them on next
+    log in.
+  * The &lt;desktop&gt; section from the configuration file is only used for
+    defaults, and so is only applied at the start of a new log-in. (Use ObConf
+    1.6.2 to change the config file for these options, and have them set
+    immediately, if you don't use a session manager to save them.)
+  * Fix updating and crashing in the old split client list menu
+  * Translate the default desktop names
+  * Update Taiwanese Chinese translation
+  * Less restrictions of behavior based on window type (Let you maximize
+    dialogs and utility windows)
+  * Fix for focus tracking when Press mouse actions are used
+  * Fix bug which let the openbox-*-session scripts take command-line arguments
+  * Better detection of legacy fullscreen windows vs. undercorated windows
+    that the user has maximized
+
+3.3.991:
+  * Added Brazilian Portuguese translation
+  * Added a rough Italian translation
+  * Added Estonian translation
+  * Update Polish translation

+  * Fix so that clicking in the corner of a maximized window presses the button
+  * Don't reload the session and reapply it when restarting
+  * Fix for losing the original size of a window that mapped with maximized
+    state (or on restart)
+  * Let you move splash type windows
+  * Fix for window placement using wrong dimensions
+  * Stop xemacs ConfigureNotify storm
+  * Fix bug stopping panels from moving themselves off-screen to hide
+    themselves
+  * Fix for GNOME/Openbox and openbox-gnome-session to use a new session name,
+    because GNOME won't let you replace the window manager in the saved session
+  * Don't restore session state when multiple windows have the same
+    identifiers, because we can't tell them apart then (Firefox/Thunderbird)
+  * Small fixes to build system to make it more reliable
+  * Fix for what manpage files are distributed in the source code, so they
+    will not be pre-built with the wrong info
+  * Fix pkg-config files for compiling things against Openbox libraries
+
+3.3.990:
+  * Wildcard matching for per-application (per-window) settings. Let you match
+    multiple rules for a window. (Props to Mark Pustjens for code to do this.)
+  * Added startup notification support to the menus and key/mouse bindings
+    with <startupnotify>. It's an option for execute actions.
+  * New combined client menu, accessed with
+    <action name="ShowMenu"><menu>client-list-combined-menu</menu></action>
+  * No menu titles - instead added separators with labels to be used as menu
+    headers anywhere in menus
+  * Improved client menu - placement, the options in it, and added an icon for
+    "All Desktops"
+  * Keyboard shortcuts in menus, by highlighted letter or by the first letter
+  * Menus dont jump around, are always placed on screen
+  * Menus larger than can fit on the screen are broken into a submenu at the
+    bottom titled "More..."
+  * Disabled menu items can be selected now (not used though, of course)
+  * Using ()'s instead of a line separator to signify iconified windows in the
+    client list menus
+  * New Root context for mouse bindings
+  * New "alt-tab" focus switching dialog
+  * openbox-session command and log-in option which provides the autostart
+    capability.
+  * SCIM support in the default Openbox session launched by the
+    openbox-session command
+  * Many code paths made significantly faster
+  * Sections of code rewritten to be more reliable, such as session
+    save/restore and input focus handling
+  * Handle the X server's clock going backwards, without locking up. Sometimes
+    the server can still lock up though, it is not recommended to do this!
+  * Better handling of window types such as docks, utility windows, tool bar
+    windows. Clicking to focus these windows is done more intelligently.  Dock
+    windows no longer get focus when you click them, so that you don't have
+    focus flickering when you use a dock window with a taskbar.
+  * Better language support through Pango, which is now mandatory, and the
+    code for Pango has been greatly improved and optimized.
+  * Support for windows that use true 32-bit transparency
+  * Resize grips (with mouse binding contexts) for the top, left, and right of
+    the window frame
+  * Smarter about keeping windows on the screen without invading user's
+    capabilities
   * Add MoveFromEdge* actions corresponding to MoveToEdge* but aligns far
     edges instead of near edges, so if you have two overlapping windows you
     can easily put them side by side.
-  * (xinerama) Make all placement strategies place windows on the screen with
-    the mouse pointer, not just UnderMouse.
-  * Fonts are now configured in rc.xml, not the theme.
-  * You can now call `openbox --reconfigure' to have openbox reread config
-    files instead of using killall -USR2 openbox.
+  * Better choice of mouse cursors for startup notification
+  * Focus stealing prevention
+  * Improve window placement across multiple Xinerama monitors
+  * Support 8-bit truecolor visuals (such as in vncserver)
+  * Better, more friendly support for omnipresent windows
+  * Full support for EWMH 1.4-draft2
+  * Iconify/restore animation !
+  * Improved support for running openbox with multiple screens (non-xinerama)
+    - won't steal focus from other screens, and let you focus a screen by
+    clicking on the desktop (root window).
+  * Support for more cursors through XCursor, means that startup notification
+    can use a pointer+watch cursor if you are using an XCursor theme
+  * Fully maximize terminal windows (and any resized-by-increment window)
+  * Show the hostname of clients running on remote computers in the titlebar
+  * Add <panels> and <desktop> options to NextWindow, PreviousWindow,
+    DirectionalFocusNorth etc..
+  * Synchronize resizing with the application when possible
+  * Smarter subdivision of windows into 9 sections for resizing
+  * Set default icon on windows so applications can agree on an icon
+  * Better support for programs that are on more than one desktop
+    (multiple firefox windows for example) - move to the desktop when you're
+    using the application and it opens a window on another desktop.
+  * Chrooted key chains, and key quoting through chroots
+  * New BreakChroot action to break out of the current chroot
+  * New keychains popup, to show where you are in a keychain
+  * Improved show-desktop mode. When you open a new window, the old windows
+    are not all restored
+  * Add <allDesktops> option to NextWindow and PreviousWindow. The desktop
+    name will be shown in the focus cycling popup
+  * Dynamically size the window and desktop dialogs. Desktop layouts that
+    aren't horizontal look better in the desktop cycling dialog.
+  * Support for legacy fullscreen applications (that don't use EWMH) such as
+    VLC
+  * Session support for old clients that do not use the session management
+    protocol
+  * Desktop setup is only changed on startup, so as to not overwrite settings
+    from other apps like pagers
+  * Take advantage of ksmserver (KDE Session Manager) features
+  * KDE/Openbox and GNOME/Openbox options for display manager GDM/KDM. Use
+    openbox-gnome-session and openbox-kde-session to run a GNOME or KDE
+    session with Openbox as the window manager.
+  * Titlebar buttons autohide when hiding won't move other buttons (removed
+    the hideDisabled option from config file)
+  * Support user time window hint, which is good for laptops power usage
+  * When legacy windows raise themselves, interpreate as wanting to be
+    activated. Makes Firefox more pleasant.
+  * Don't show handles on windows that cant resize for more extreme visual
+    minimalism
+  * Let you move maximized windows between Xinerama monitors
+  * Improve application awareness of focus, e.g. Kopete and Firefox, so they
+    know when they are or aren't focused, and which window in their
+    application is focused
+  * Improvements in the distributed themes
+  * Add new Clearlooks and Clearlooks-Olive themes by John McKnight
+  * Fonts are no longer loaded from theme. They are loaded from the rc.xml
+    config file. Font shadow settings are still loaded from the theme though.
+    5 fonts to be set: ActiveWindow InactiveWindow, MenuHeader, MenuItem and
+    OnScreenDisplay
+  * Distributed theme names have been renamed with Capitalization
+  * menu.items.activedisabled.text.color
+  * menu.border.color   (note that globbing might set these properties when
+    you didnt mean to)
+  * window.active.border.color   (note that globbing might set these
+    properties when you didnt mean to)
+  * window.inactive.border.color   (note that globbing might set these
+    properties when you didnt mean to)
+  * menu.border.width
+  * Guarantee that titlebar buttons are even sized, so even sized icons
+    (button masks) will be centered
+  * Default titlebar button icons (as xbms) installed to /usr/share/doc/openbox
+  * New mouse binding contexts Left, Right, TLCorner, TRCorner and Top. These
+    need bindings in config file to be useful. Also new context Bottom which
+    is synonym for Handle.
+  * W is no longer hard coded to Mod4. It is now a shortcut for Super, which
+    is usually bound to Mod4. xmodmap will show your mapping.
+  * The per-app setting <head> has been renamed to <monitor>
+  * Can use "default" for anything in per-app settings
