+<h3>AspectJ v1.6.0 - 23 Apr 2008</h3>
-<p>It also includes some enhancements to incremental compilation support which enable AJDT to do incremental builds
-more often than previously in a multi-project eclipse configuration.
-These enhancements are described in <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=221427">bug 221427</a>.
-And some performance numbers are in <a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/aspectj-users/msg09002.html">this mailing list</a> post.

+<h4>Better incremental compilation support in the IDE</h4>
+<p>Changes under <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=221427">bug 221427</a> mean that the compiler
+is better able to maintain incremental state for projects in Eclipse and determine whether full builds or incremental
+builds are required when project dependencies change. The result is that the compiler will more frequently do
+an incremental build rather than falling back to doing a full build. Some basic performance findings can be seen in
+<a href="http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/aspectj-users/msg09002.html">this mailing list post</a>.
-<p>1.6.0m2 includes two new features:
-<ul>
-<li>Parameter annotation matching</li>
-<li>Annotation value matching</li>
-</ul>

-<h4>Parameter Annotation Matching</h4>
+<h4>Parameter annotation matching</h4>
<p>Parameter matching is possible for constructors and methods. The use
of parentheses around the parameter types in a method signature
determine whether the annotations relate to the type of the parameter
}

-Matching is currently allowed on all annotation value types *except* class and array. Also it is

-<h3>AspectJ v1.6.0M1 - 16 Jan 2008</h3>
-<p>This is the first milestone release of AspectJ 6. AspectJ 6 is a Java 6 compiler,
-the underlying Eclipse JDT compiler version upon which it is based is 785_R33x - a recent 3.3 version.</p>
-<p>The compiler had changed a lot since version 574_R31x when we last merged!
-This milestone passes the 3615 automated tests we have defined for AspectJ - but that does not mean it will work perfectly for you, if it does not then
-please <a href="https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=AspectJ">raise a bug in bugzilla</a>.

-</ul>
-<p>Known issues with this milestone:</p>
-<ul>
-<li>StackMapTable attributes not produced for all members, where they would normally be required.
-<li>Distribution may currently contain some 'dead code' that we can remove, dependencies from compiler classes that are never actually used.
-<li>No performance testing done
-<li>No memory usage testing done
-<li>Limited actual Java6 testing done, as I am on a Mac ;)
-<li>Does not default to Java6 compilation (use -1.6 or -source 1.6)
-</ul>

-<p>Please test it and open any bugs you find!</p>
