                     Bookmarks Database and Internet Robot
 
 WHAT IS IT
-   There is a set of classes, libraries, programs and plugins I use to
-manipulate my bookmarks.html. I like Netscape Navigator, but I need more
-features, so I write and maintain these programs for my needs. I need to
-extend Navigator's "What's new" feature (Navigator 4 calls it "Update
-bookmarks").
+   A set of classes, libraries, programs and plugins I use to manipulate my
+bookmarks.html.
 
+WHAT'S NEW in version 4.3.1 (2011-01-03).
 
-WHAT'S NEW in version 3.4.0
-   Updated to m_lib version 1.2. Extended support for Mozilla.
+Get favicon before HTML redirect (refresh).
 
+Get favicon even if it's of a wrong type; many sites return favicon as
+text/plain or application/*; the only exception is text/html which is usually
+an error page instead of error 404.
 
-WHAT'S NEW in version 3.3.2
-   parse_html.py can now recode unicode entities in titles.
 
+WHAT'S NEW in version 4.3.0 (2011-01-01).
 
-WHAT'S NEW in version 3.3.0
-   Required Python 2.2.
-   HTML parser. If the protocol is HTTP, and there is Content-Type header, and
-content type is text/html, the object is parsed to extract its title; if the
-Content-Type header has charset, or if the HTML has <META> with charset, the
-title is converted from the given charset to the default charset. The object is
-also parsed to extract <META> tag with redirect.
-
-
-WHAT'S NEW in version 3.0
-   Complete rewrite from scratch. Created mechanism for pluggable storage
-managers, writers (DB dumpers/exporters) and robots.
+Robots no longer have one global temporary file - there are at least two
+(html and favicon), and in the future there will be more for
+asynchronous robot(s) that will test many URLs in parallel.
