+              Apache Commons RNG 1.1 RELEASE NOTES
+
+The Apache Commons RNG team is pleased to announce the commons-rng-parent-1.1 release!
+
+The Apache Commons RNG project provides pure-Java implementation of pseudo-random generators.
+
+Changes in this version include:
+
+New features:
+o RNG-37:  Implementation of the "Ziggurat" algorithm for Gaussian sampling.
+o RNG-47:  "DiscreteProbabilityCollectionSampler": Sampling from a collection of items
+        with user-defined probabilities (feature ported from "Commons Math").
+o RNG-43:  "LogNormalSampler" with user-defined underlying "NormalizedGaussianSampler".
+o RNG-39:  "UnitSphereSampler": generate random vectors isotropically located
+        on the surface of a sphere (feature ported from "Commons Math").
+o RNG-36:  "MarsagliaNormalizedGaussianSampler": Faster variation of the
+        Box-Muller algorithm.
+        This version is used within "AhrensDieterMarsagliaTsangGammaSampler"
+        "MarsagliaLogNormalSampler" and "PoissonSampler" (generated sequences
+        will thus differ from those generated by version 1.0 of the library).
+o RNG-35:  New generic "GaussianSampler" based on "NormalizedGaussianSampler"
+        marker interface.
+        Implementation of "BoxMullerNormalizedGaussianSampler" deprecates
+        "BoxMullerGaussianSampler".
+
+
+Changes:
+o RNG-42:  Use "ZigguratNormalizedGaussianSampler" within the library.
+o RNG-46:  Following RNG-43, "BoxMullerLogNormalSampler" has been deprecated.
+        Furthermore, its base class has been removed; although it is a binary
+        incompatibility, it cannot cause any problem that were not already
+        present in code using v1.0 of the library: Calls to the base class
+        would have raised a NPE.
