 *** HOL ***
 
+* Command 'typedef' now works within a local theory context -- without
+introducing dependencies on parameters or assumptions, which is not
+possible in Isabelle/Pure/HOL.  Note that the logical environment may
+contain multiple interpretations of local typedefs (with different
+non-emptiness proofs), even in a global theory context.

 * Split off theory Big_Operators containing setsum, setprod, Inf_fin, Sup_fin,
 Min, Max from theory Finite_Set.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
