-	upcomming version 1.7
+	* Library refactoring: algC, complex, ssrnum: Library ssrnum.v now
+	provides an interface numClosedFieldType, which factors some
+	theory from both complex and algC. In particular, Re, Im, 'i,
+	conjC, n.-root and sqrtC are now part of this generic
+	interface. In case of ambiguity, they can be casted to the type
+	algC, of complex algebraic numbers, via typing constraints. Some
+	theory was thus made more generic, and the corresponding lemmas,
+	previously defined in library algC.v (e.g. conjCK) now feature an
+	extra, non maximal implicit, parameter
+	(C : numClosedFieldType). This could break some
+	proofs. Additionally, a few ad hoc constructions in library
+	complex.v, e.g. -*+ or complex.Re, are now deprecated and should
+	be replaced by the corresponding ones provided by the
+	numClosedFieldType interface. The next revision might definitely
+	hide those constructions under a module.

-25/08/2016 - refactoring of algC and complex in ssrnum -
-	upcomming version 1.7
-	* ssrnum's interface numClosedFieldType factors some theory from
-	  both complex and algC. Because of that Re, Im, 'i, conjC, n.-root
-	  and sqrtC are not specialized to algC anymore. In case of
-	  ambiguity, they should be instanciated with algC using typing
-	  constraints. Moreoever all the lemmas from ssrnum that used to
-	  be in algC (like conjCK), now take an extra nonmaximal implicit
-	  argument (C : numClosedFieldType) which could break some proofs.
-	  Additionally, ad-hoc constructions from complex.v like -*+ or
-	  complex.Re are now deprecated and one should rely solely on the
-	  ssrnum interface. The next revision might definietly hide those
-	  constructions under a module.

-	* Structures that change:
