  Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.7  [xx XXX 2000]
 
+  *) Make X509_time_adj() cope with the new behaviour of ASN1_TIME_new().
+     Previously it initialised the 'type' argument to V_ASN1_UTCTIME which
+     effectively meant GeneralizedTime would never be used. Now it
+     is initialised to -1 but X509_time_adj() now has to check the value
+     and use ASN1_TIME_set() if the value is not V_ASN1_UTCTIME or
+     V_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME, without this it always uses GeneralizedTime.

+
+  *) Fixes to BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER when bn is zero. This would previously
+     result in a zero length in the ASN1_INTEGER structure which was
+     not consistent with the structure when d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() was used
+     and would cause ASN1_INTEGER_cmp() to fail. Enhance s2i_ASN1_INTEGER()
+     to cope with hex and negative integers. Fix bug in i2a_ASN1_INTEGER()
+     where it did not print out a minus for negative ASN1_INTEGER.

+
+  *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Add summary printout to ocsp utility. The various functions which
+     convert status values to strings have been renamed to:
+     OCSP_response_status_str(), OCSP_cert_status_str() and
+     OCSP_crl_reason_str() and are no longer static. New options
+     to verify nonce values and to disable verification. OCSP response
+     printout format cleaned up.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Add additional OCSP certificate checks. These are those specified
+     in RFC2560. This consists of two separate checks: the CA of the
+     certificate being checked must either be the OCSP signer certificate
+     or the issuer of the OCSP signer certificate. In the latter case the
+     OCSP signer certificate must contain the OCSP signing extended key
+     usage. This check is performed by attempting to match the OCSP
+     signer or the OCSP signer CA to the issuerNameHash and issuerKeyHash
+     in the OCSP_CERTID structures of the response.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Initial OCSP certificate verification added to OCSP_basic_verify()
+     and related routines. This uses the standard OpenSSL certificate
+     verify routines to perform initial checks (just CA validity) and
+     to obtain the certificate chain. Then additional checks will be
+     performed on the chain. Currently the root CA is checked to see
+     if it is explicitly trusted for OCSP signing. This is used to set
+     a root CA as a global signing root: that is any certificate that
+     chains to that CA is an acceptable OCSP signing certificate.

   *) New '-extfile ...' option to 'openssl ca' for reading X.509v3
      extensions from a separate configuration file.

   *) Change the Unix RAND_poll() variant to be able to poll several
-     random devices and only read data for a small fragment of time
-     to avoid hangs.  Also separate out the Unix variant to it's own
-     file, rand_unix.c.  For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
+     random devices, as specified by DEVRANDOM, until a sufficient amount
+     of data has been collected.   We spend at most 10 ms on each file
+     (select timeout) and read in non-blocking mode.  DEVRANDOM now
+     defaults to the list "/dev/urandom", "/dev/random", "/dev/srandom"
+     (previously it was just the string "/dev/urandom"), so on typical
+     platforms the 10 ms delay will never occur.
+     Also separate out the Unix variant to its own file, rand_unix.c.
+     For VMS, there's a currently-empty rand_vms.c.
