 // Revision History:
 
+// 09 Feb 2001   Jeremy Siek
+//      Added iterator constructor to allow const adaptor
+//      from non-const adaptee.
+//
+//      Changed make_xxx to pass iterators by-value to
+//      get arrays converted to pointers.
+//
+//      Removed InnerIterator template parameter from
+//      indirect_iterator_generator.
+//
+//      Rearranged parameters for make_filter_iterator
+//
 // 07 Feb 2001   Jeremy Siek
 //      Removed some const iterator adaptor generators.
