Description:
[describe the bug, or describe the new feature, etc]
Solution:
[details about the changes, algorithm, etc...]

better than others guessing it from the code.]
Platforms tested:
[machines you have tested the changed version. This is absolute
important. Test it out on at least two or three different platforms
such as Big-endian-32bit (SUN/IRIX), little-endian-32(LINUX) and

Hack
Description:
Need to install the files in the examples/java directory, however
they include installing a Makefile. This was causing havoc with our
Makefile/configure system.
Solution:
Changed so that you can specify a "SUBDOCDIR" which will create a
subdirectory for you and fill it with files specified in PUB_SUBDOCS.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Bug Fix
Description:
We only really need to go into the doc/ directory when doing a
``make install-doc''.

Stop it from going further than here if doing some other type of make
and just print a message saying "Nothing to do here"

Small Fix
Description:
Modified ``max_dims'' so that it is a truely recursive definition
vis-a-vis (that's French!) the BNF stuff.
Solution:
Changed the max_dims ::= ( i_0, i_1, ...) where i_k is either an
integer or UNLIMITED to something like:
<max_dims> ::= '(' <max_dim_list> ')'
<max_dim_list> ::= <max_dim> | <max_dim>, <max_dim_list>
<max_dim> ::= <int_value> | H5S_UNLIMITED
Platforms tested:

Purpose:
Contains code examples from doc/H5.intro.html (Intro to HDF5).
These were moved so that examples can be displayed in a separate
browser window and viewed in parallel with reading the document.
Platforms tested:

Fix
Description:
Fixed the install-doc feature.
Solution:
It manually tests if the appropriate doc directory is there. If not,
then it mkdir's it and proceeds to the subdirectory installs.
Platforms tested:
Linux, Solaris
Purpose:
Extracting RELEASE and HISTORY from Changes.html and distributing
them as separate files will not only leave Changes.html easier to
read, but will ease maintenance.
Solution:
Removed the RELEASE and HISTORY files' contents from Changes.html,
inserting links instead.
Changes.html now points to RELEASE.txt and HISTORY.txt, duplicates
of hdf5/RELEASE and hdf5/HISTORY. These two files will
henceforth be distributed within the doc set so that this
information can be available to applications developers who
cannot access the HDF website (e.g., due to a firewall) and
are working without the HDF5 source code.
Affected files: hdf5/doc/html/ADGuide/Changes.html
hdf5/doc/html/ADGuide/RELEASE.txt
hdf5/doc/html/ADGuide/HISTORY.txt
Platforms tested:
IE 5
Purpose:
Add removal of H5RA API to "Changes" document.
Description:
Added H5RA functions, ragged arrays, to 'removed functions' list
and note below table that entire H5RA API (experimantal) has been
removed from the library.
Platforms tested:
IE 5
Purpose:
Removing Ragged.html and RM_H5RA.html from the HDF5 doc set.
These are the UG and RM pages, respectively, for Ragged Arrays,
which were removed from the library last week.
Solution:
Removed the files Ragged.html and RM_H5RA.html.
