Of course there is much room for inmprovement. I only think that this Wiki 
page is not the solution. What I would like to see in TSref itself is 
version information for every feature/property wher it belongs (eg cObjext 
XXX, property yyy added in 3.8). And perhaps some kind of TYPO3 version 
related "whats new" chapter with a section for every version.
