       [1]http://groups.google.com/group/asciidoc/browse_frm/thread/ac4b9b
       fa2116db28
     * Dropped .hgignore from the repository. See
       [2]http://groups.google.com/group/asciidoc/browse_frm/thread/c17abd
       175778f5ea
     * Don't pass verbose options to asciidoc table filter so that
       asciidocapi messages are not discarded. See:
       [3]http://groups.google.com/group/asciidoc/browse_frm/thread/c17abd
       175778f5ea
     * Added ./tests/data/lang-pt-BR-test.txt file to the repository.
     * xhtml11: Verse block and verse paragraph content enveloped in a pre
       tag (instead of a div) so it renders better in text-only browsers.

       adb24e710
     * User Guide: Clarified Passthrough Blocks (suggested by Simon
       Ruderich).
     * FAQ: How can I include lines of dashes inside a listing block?
     * FAQ errata and updates (submitted by Simon Ruderich).
     * User Guide errata.
     * Simplified asciidoc-toc processing instruction and included lists
       of figures, tables, examples and equations in books (i.e. revert to
       pre-8.5.0 behavior).
     * Attempted to have dblatex recognise the asciidoc-toc processing
       instruction but couldn't get it to work.
     * Added notitle attribute to allow the document title to be hidden.

   Bug fixes
     * FIXED: Regression: system attribute escaping did not work.
     * FIXED: Website: broken image links in chunked User Guide.
