+    \subsection{Major changes in \code{R} code:}{
+      \itemize{
+        \item Add fitting procedure of ME-Pa splicing model for censored data (\code{SpliceFiticPareto}).
+        \item Change initial values of ME distribution to the ones used in Verbelen et al. (2016) (multivariate ME).
+        \item Add splicing QQ-plot using Turnbull estimator (\code{SpliceQQ_TB}).
+        \item Remove all old estimators for interval censored data.
+        \item Remove all old estimators that can handle data that is both censored and truncated.
+        \item Improve Turnbull estimator using \pkg{interval} package.
+        \item Add mean excess plot adapted for (interval) censoring using Turnbull estimator (\code{MeanExcess_TB}).
+        \item Add Hill estimator (\code{icHill}) and Pareto QQ-plot (\code{icParetoQQ}) for interval censored data.
+        \item Add classical approximations for CDF.

       \itemize{

+        \item Correct AIC and BIC for truncated splicing fits (if more than two parts).
+        \item Type \code{"tPa"} is changed to \code{"TPa"} when using SpliceFit objects. \code{"tPa"} is however still supported.
+        \item \code{SpliceFitPareto:} Correct IC for ME-Pa splicing model when endpoint is provided (and does not need to be estimated).
+        \item Change order of argument \code{x} in \code{SplicePP} and \code{SplicePP_TB}.
+        \item Plot points instead of lines in PP-plots.

+        \item Improve ME quantile function.
+
         \item Add Weibull QQ-plot and derivative plot.

-        \item Type \code{"tPa"} is changed to \code{"TPa"} when using splicefit objects. \code{"tPa"} is however still supported.
-        \item Add mean excess plot adapted for censoring using Turnbull estimator (\code{MeanExcess_TB}).
