+  *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
+     and with pssibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.

+
+  *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
+     applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
+     don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().

+
+  +) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
+     arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
+     Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
+     function pointer.  NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
+     versions of OpenSSL [engine].
+     Addapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
+     callback.

+
+  +) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
+     dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
+     to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
+     and interrupts/cancelations.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Don't change *pointer in CRYPTO_add_lock() is add_lock_callback is
+     used: it isn't thread safe and the add_lock_callback should handle
+     that itself.

-  +) Add a general user interface API.  This is designed to replace things
-     like des_read_password and friends (backward compatibility functions
