+NEW FEATURES
+
+    o The new functions rTraitCont and rTraitDisc simulate continuous and
+      discrete traits under a wide range of evolutionary models.
+
+    o add.scale.bar() has a new option 'ask' to draw interactively.
+
+
+BUG FIXES
+
+    o add.scale.bar() drew the bar outside the plotting region with the
+      default options with unrooted or radial trees.

     o rtree() and rcoal() now accept a numeric vector for the 'br'
       argument.
 
+    o vcv() is a new generic function with methods for the classes "phylo"
+      and "corPhyl" so that it is possible to calculate the var-cov matrix
+      for "transformation models". vcv.phylo() can still be used for trees
