  Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.1.0  [xx XXX xxxx]
 
+  *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
+     of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
+     to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
+     Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
+     there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
+     will never use XTS mode.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
+     to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
+     performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
+     set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
+     Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
+     the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
+     This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
+     shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
+     anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
+     Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
+     instantiate at maximum supported strength.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Add SRP support.
+     [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
+
+  *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
+     leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
+     anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
+     files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
+     fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
+     conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
+     util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
+     and rename any affected symbols.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
+     FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
+     return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
+     tiny fips sign and verify functions.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
   *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
      and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
      instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
