  Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4
 
+  *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
+     Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
+     must use this, not the compile-time macro.
+     (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
+     such programs?)
+     Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
+     need locks.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
+     through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
+     SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
+     can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
+     appropriate.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
+     for the encoded length.
+     [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
+
+  *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and 
+     PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
+     PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
+     secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
+     _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
+     [Ralf S. Engelschall]
+
+  *) Fix demos/sign/sign.c: well there wasn't anything strictly speaking
+     wrong with it but it was very old and did things like calling
+     PEM_ASN1_read() directly and used MD5 for the hash not to mention some
+     unusual formatting.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Fix demos/selfsign.c: it used obsolete and deleted functions, changed
+     to use the new extension code.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Implement the PEM_read/PEM_write functions in crypto/pem/pem_all.c
+     with macros. This should make it easier to change their form, add extra
+     arguments etc. Fix a few PEM prototypes which didn't have cipher as a
+     constant.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
   *) Add to configuration table a new entry that can specify an alternative
      name for unistd.h (for pre-POSIX systems); we need this for NeXTstep,
      according to Mark Crispin <MRC@Panda.COM>.
