+version 0.5 (9 September 2006)
+  - added a \photo command to display a picture. That command takes the name of
+  the file with the picture as argument, and the desired height as optional
+  argument.
+  - implemented the needed commands to make moderncv compatible with BibTeX, as
+  suggested by J. Lie. This makes it possible to display one's publications,
+  stored in the BibTeX file 'publications.bib'
+  by using:
+    \nocite{*}
+    \bibliographystyle{plain}
+    \bibliography{publications}
+  As usual, the name of the section title can be changed by redefining the
+  command \refname.
+  - added the \today command, useful for example if one need to add the date the
+  resumé was produced with
+    \closesection{}
+    \vfill{\hfill{\scriptsize Produced \today.}}
+  at the end of your CV, as suggested by F. Hammann.
