#  News: to package distrTEst 
######################################################################

(first two numbers of package versions do not necessarily reflect 
 package-individual development, but rather are chosen for the 
 distrXXX family as a whole in order to ease updating "depends" 
 information)

##############
v 2.8
##############

user-visible CHANGES:

+ plot methods now return an S3 object of class \code{c("plotInfo","DiagnInfo")}, i.e., a list containing the 
  information needed to produce the respective plot, which at a later stage could be used by different graphic engines (like, e.g. 
  \code{ggplot}) to produce the plot in a different framework. A more detailed description will follow in a subsequent version.
+ DESCRIPTION tag SVNRevision changed to VCS/SVNRevision
 
under the hood:
+ fixed some broken URLs and changed URLs from http to https where possible
+ clean up in examples: files written to are unlinked at end of examples
