\itemize{
\item replaced ./NEWS by ./inst/NEWS.Rd
\item \code{stratify} method with signature \code{SpatialPolygons} has gained a new argument: \code{cellSize}. Argument \code{cellSize} takes precedence over argument \code{nGridCells}.
\item upgraded to \pkg{ggplot2} 0.9.0
\item upgraded to \pkg{sp} 0.9-97
\item added \code{stratify} method for instances of class \code{SpatialGrid} (due to recent changes in package \pkg{sp})
\item dependency on package \pkg{rgdal} has been reduced. \pkg{spcosa} now only requires package \pkg{rgdal} in case projection attributes have been set. \pkg{spcosa} will therefore also run on systems without 'gdal'.
\item packages like \pkg{sp} and \pkg{rgdal} need to be loaded explicitly. In previous versions of \pkg{spcosa} these packages were automatically loaded.
\item documentation and vignette have been updated
\item minor changes to the code to pass all checks (without warnings) in R 2.15.0

\code{R CMD check}: "no visible binding for global variable ..."

\item added FAQ

\itemize{

recent version of Java is required in order to run \pkg{spcosa}.
\item upgraded to \R 2.10-0 and \pkg{rJava} 0.8-1. Previous releases of
\pkg{spcosa} are not compatible with the new \pkg{rJava} 0.8-series

\section{Changes in version 0.1-5 (2009-09-08)}{
\itemize{
\item fixed 'suspect' hyperlink issue reported by \code{'R CMD check'} of

\item added more contrast to spatial strata plots

\section{Changes in version 0.1-4 (2009-06-29)}{
\itemize{
\item minor bug fixed in method \code{'getArea'}. In previous versions of \pkg{spcosa},
the area was returned in units of grid cells i.s.o. map units.
Since \pkg{spcosa} relies on relative areas, this bug did _not_ affect
other methods in the package.
\item visualization of class hierarchies in the package vignette by means
of the new \code{'classesToAM'} function
\item minor update of documentation (Rd files)
\item warnings due to coercion to class \code{"SpatialPixelsDataFrame"} have been
suppressed.
\item dependency has been increased from \R (>= 2.8.0) to \R (>= 2.9.0).
Otherwise \pkg{ggplot2}-functions might fail.
