*) applies to 0.9.6a/0.9.6b/0.9.6c and 0.9.7
+) applies to 0.9.7 only
+ +) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
+ soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
+ openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
+ This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
+ the configuration scripts.
+
+ NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
+ backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
+ ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]
+
+ +) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
+ [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]
+
+ +) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
+ additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
+ when reusing an existing buffer.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Disable caching in BIO_gethostbyname(), directly use gethostbyname()
+ instead. BIO_gethostbyname() does not know what timeouts are
+ appropriate, so entries would stay in cache even when they have
+ become invalid.
+ [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Rich Salz <rsalz@zolera.com>
+
+ +) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
+ This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
