	~~{{TODO \| LVO~~ to ~~document work by JDO}}~~		The automated reasoners that try to match predicates (HYP, HYP_OR, CNTR, GEN_MP) now use a fuzzy algorithm which succeeds more often. This increases the rate of automated proofs.

			Add specific support for empty sets and projections in the normalizer.

			The prover now has an explicit notion of rewriting in hypotheses (which was only simulated before). This avoids strange behaviors that could happen when a proof obligation changes several times.

			Better integration of the Theory plug-in in proofs.

	~~{{TODO \| LVO~~ to ~~document FF~~, ~~user visible changes}}~~		The API of the AST library has been strengthened to mitigate risks of unsoundness when mixing several formula factories. Now, every AST node carries the formula factory with which it was built, and the AST operations that combine several formulas check that formula factories are compatible.

			The AST library now offers support for immutable type environments, which simplifies the code of the Sequent prover (no need to make defensive copies anymore).

	~~{{TODO \| NBG~~ to ~~document changes for~~ Theory ~~plug~~-in}}		In order to improve the reliability of the proof status when working with mathematical extensions, the reasoners can be declared as context-dependent. The proofs that use a context dependent reasoner will not be trusted merely based on their dependencies, but instead they will be replayed in order to update their status. This applies in particular to Theory Plug-in reasoners, that depend on the mathematical language and proof rules defined in theories, which change over time.

			=== (Not) Upgrading from Rodin 2.x ===

			For this major release, upgrading from Rodin 2.x is not supported.
			This is due to limitations in Eclipse p2 (about conflict resolutions) and would work only if no plug-ins are installed... which makes it close to useless !

			In case some would be interested anyway, here are the steps:
			* Upgrade Rodin Handbook to the latest version (2.5.0.201310101603)
			* Add Eclipse 3.8 Update Site: http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.8/
			* Upgrade to Rodin 3 using the 'Core Rodin Updates' site
