+===== bugs & wish list =====
+  * Replace XML::XPath by XML::LibXML2 (2015-02-23)
+  * The <include/> statement allows only for including stuff from the same <application> namespace. Sometimes access to arbitarary config trees of another application would be nice. Thinking about <import/> or similar. (2015-02-23)
+  * Some variable replacement mechanism. Like <basedir value="/var/lib/app"/> and <workdir value="${basedir}/work"/> . Testcode currently runs in mkrepo. (2015-02-23)
+  * Hierarchical config file processing: /etc/<app> first, ~/.<app> next, ./.<app> each overriding the settings from its predecessors.
+  * ~ - expansion for xml-cfg-filename in new() would be nice (2015-09-10)
+=== fixed bugs ===
+  * The .deb-package lacks the dependency of libxml-xpath-perl (2015-02-23) (fixed in 0.2.3.2)
+  * manpage: missing like break in SYNOPSIS, (fixed in 0.2.3.2)
+  * manpage: broken constructor call in SYNOPSIS (fixed in 0.2.3.2)
+  * manpage: xpaths with leading / in SYNOPSIS (fixed in 0.2.3.2)
+  * manpage: ~ - expansion is suggested, change examples to $ENV{HOME} (fixed in 0.2.3.2)
