-XML-RPC for PHP version 4.xx - unreleased
+XML-RPC for PHP version 4.6.1 - 2022/2/15
+
+* fixed: one php warning with php 8 and up
+
+
+XML-RPC for PHP version 4.6.0 - 2021/12/9
+
+* fixed: compatibility with php 8.1
+
+* improved: when encoding utf8 text into us-ascii xml, use character entity references for characters number 0-31
+  (ascii non printable characters), as we were already doing when encoding iso-8859-1 text into us-ascii xml
+
+* new: method `Server::getDispatchMap()`. Useful for non-child classes which want to f.e. introspect the server
+
+* new: increase flexibility in class composition by adopting a Dependency Injection (...ish) pattern:
+  it is now possible to swap out the Logger, XMLParser and Charset classes with similar ones of your own making.
+  Example code:
+      // 1. create an instance of a custom character encoder
+      // $myCharsetEncoder = ...
+      // 2. then use it while serializing a Request:
+      Request::setCharsetEncoder($myCharsetEncoder);
+      $request->serialize($funkyCharset);
+
+* new: method `XMLParser::parse()` acquired a 4th argument
+
+* new: method `Wrapper::wrapPhpClass` allows to customize the names of the phpxmlrpc methods by stripping the original
+  class name and accompanying namespace and replace it with a user-defined prefix, via option `replace_class_name`
+
+* new: `Response` constructor gained a 4th argument
+
+* deprecated: properties `Response::hdrs`, `Response::_cookies`, `Response::raw_data`. Use `Response::httpResponse()` instead.
+  That method returns an array which also holds the http response's status code - useful in case of http errors.
+
+* deprecated: method `Request::createPayload`. Use `Request::serialize` instead
+
+* deprecated: property `Request::httpResponse`
+
+* improved: `Http::parseResponseHeaders` now throws a more specific exception in case of http errors
+
+* improved: Continuous Integration is now running on Github Actions instead of Travis
+

+
+* improved: better phpdocs in the the php code generated by the Wrapper class
+
+* improved: debugger favicon and page title when used from the phpjsonrpc library
+
+* fixed: allow `Encoder::decode` to properly support different target character sets for polyfill-xmlrpc decode functions
+
+* improved: allow usage of 'epivals' for the 'parameters_type' member of methods definitions in the Server dispatch map
+
