  Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.8  [xx XXX xxxx]
 
+  *) Add new EVP function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_rand_key and associated functionality.
+     This will generate a random key of the appropriate length based on the 
+     cipher context. The EVP_CIPHER can provide its own random key generation
+     routine to support keys of a specific form. This is used in the des and 
+     3des routines to generate a key of the correct parity. Update S/MIME
+     code to use new functions and hence generate correct parity DES keys.
+     Add EVP_CHECK_DES_KEY #define to return an error if the key is not 
+     valid (weak or incorrect parity).
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Add a local set of CRLs that can be used by X509_verify_cert() as well
+     as looking them up. This is useful when the verified structure may contain
+     CRLs, for example PKCS#7 signedData. Modify PKCS7_verify() to use any CRLs
+     present unless the new PKCS7_NO_CRL flag is asserted.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Extend ASN1 oid configuration module. It now additionally accepts the
+     syntax:
+
+     shortName = some long name, 1.2.3.4
+     [Steve Henson]
+
   *) Reimplemented the BN_CTX implementation. There is now no more static
      limitation on the number of variables it can handle nor the depth of the
      "stack" handling for BN_CTX_start()/BN_CTX_end() pairs. The stack
