 			<li>Scaffolding, having been deprecated for a number of versions, has been removed.</li>
 			<li>Plugins have been removed, in favor of Helpers.  The CAPTCHA plugin has been converted to a Helper and <a href="./helpers/captcha_helper.html">documented</a>.  The JavaScript calendar plugin was removed due to the ready availability of great JavaScript calendars, particularly with jQuery.</li>
 			<li>Added new special Library type: <a href="./general/drivers.html">Drivers</a>.</li>
+			<li>Moved the application folder outside of the system folder.</li>
 			<li>Added routing overrides to the main index.php file, enabling the normal routing to be overridden on a per "index" file basis.</li>
 			<li>Added the ability to set config values (or override config values) directly from data set in the main index.php file.  This allows a single application to be used with multiple front controllers, each having its own config values.</li>
 			<li>Added <kbd>$config['directory_trigger']</kbd> to the config file so that a controller sub-directory can be specified when running _GET strings instead of URI segments.</li>
