    o linearKinhom, linearpcfinhom, linearKEuclidInhom, linearpcfEuclidInhom
    Argument 'lambda=NULL' is now interpreted to mean that the intensity
    should be estimated by kernel smoothing. A warning is issued that this
    is different from the previous behaviour.

OVERVIEW

    o We thank Greg McSwiggan, Fernando Milesi, Mehdi Moradi, Gopalan Nair
    and James Pope for contributions.
    
    o spatstat.linnet now depends on the new packages 'spatstat.explore'

    Marks attached to the vertices and segments of a linear network.
    
    o Smooth.lpp
    Kernel smoothing (Nadaraya-Watson) on a linear network.

    o distmap.lpp

    o terminalvertices
    Extract the terminal vertices of a linear network.

    o bw.relrisk.lpp
    This function replaces 'bw.relrisklpp'
    and is a method for the generic 'bw.relrisk'.

    o rThomaslpp
    Simulate Thomas cluster process on a network.
    
SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

    o Package dependence
    'spatstat.linnet' now depends on the new packages 'spatstat.explore'
    and 'spatstat.model' rather than the old 'spatstat.core'.
    
    o plot.lpp
    If 'shape="crossticks"', the points will be drawn as
    short line segments perpendicular to the network.

    o linearK, linearpcf, linearKdot, linearKcross, linearpcfcross, linearpcfdot
    When 'ratio=TRUE', the denominator is now equal to the number of
    ordered pairs of data points considered. This does not affect the
    summary function, but it changes the calculation of pooled estimates.
    
    o densityQuick.lpp
    If 'sigma' is a function for selecting a bandwidth,
    additional arguments '...' of densityQuick.lpp will be passed to 'sigma',
    provided they match the name of a formal argument of 'sigma'.

    a method for the generic 'bw.relrisk'.

    o bw.relrisk.lpp
    When 'method="likelihood"', the cross-validation criterion
    is now defined as the *negative* likelihood. This is consistent with
    'bw.relrisk.ppp', and ensures that the optimum bandwidth is always
    found by minimising the cross-validation criterion.

    o integral.linim, integral.linfun
    New argument 'weight' specifies a weight function for the integration.
    
    o rhohat.lpp, rhohat.lppm

    will be saved, and will be displayed on the plot.

    o rhohat.lpp, rhohat.lppm
    New arguments 'jitter', 'jitterfactor', 'interpolate' allow greater
    control over the calculation.

    o plot.linnet

    New formal arguments 'covariates' and 'se'.

    o rhohat.lpp, rhohat.lppm
    New argument 'do.CI' specifies whether to calculate confidence bands.
    
BUG FIXES

    o density.lpp
    If 'weights' were given, the results were completely incorrect
    when leaveoneout=TRUE (the default) and at="points".

    [Spotted by Fernando A. Milesi]
    Fixed.
    
    o predict.lppm
    Ignored argument 'covariates'.
    Fixed.
    
    o rhohat.lpp, rhohat.lppm
    The argument 'subset' was not handled correctly in the internal data.
    The estimated function 'rho' was correct
    but the results of 'predict.rhohat' may have been incorrect
    and were computed only on the 'subset'.
    Fixed.

    o plot.lpp
    Did not display the main title in some cases.
    Fixed.
    
    o "[.lpp", "[.linnet"
    Ignored marks attached to the network segments.
    Fixed.

    o "[.lpp", "[.linnet"
    Crashed if the network vertices had marks, when 'snip=TRUE'.
    Fixed.

    o densityQuick.lpp
    Crashed sometimes with a message about unequal lengths of vectors.
    Fixed.

    If 'Z' was a pixel image on a network (class 'linim')

    instead of maximised.

OVERVIEW

    o Package initialised at version 1.65-0

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

    o spatstat.linnet
    The package 'spatstat.linnet' has been created from a subset
    of the code in the original 'spatstat' package version 1.65-0.
    It contains the functionality for statistical analysis of
    spatial data on a linear network.
    For an overview, see help("spatstat.linnet-package")

    o Execution
    The 'spatstat.linnet' package is slightly faster than the corresponding
    code in the 'spatstat' package, because the procedure for calling
    internal C functions has been streamlined.
