 <ol>
+  <li> Rework: SLEPcWrappers were reworked to allow usage of PETSc solvers
+  and preconditioners inside SLEPc's eigensolvers. To that end extra methods
+  were introduced to PETSc wrappers. Moreover, initialisation of the
+  underlying SLEPc objects is now done inside constructors of the wrapper
+  classes. As a result, one has to provide an MPI communicator to the constructors of
+  spectral transformation classes.

+  </li>
+
   <li> Removed the deprecated Operator class in the Algorithms namespace.
