   This file gives a brief overview of the major changes between each OpenSSL
   release. For more details please read the CHANGES file.
 
+  Major changes between OpenSSL 0.9.7a and OpenSSL 0.9.7b:
+
+      o Security: counter the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
+        Bleichbacher's attack 
+      o Security: make RSA blinding default.
+      o Configuration: Irix fixes, AIX fixes, better mingw support.
+      o Support for new platforms: linux-ia64-ecc.
+      o Build: shared library support fixes.
+      o ASN.1: treat domainComponent correctly.
+      o Documentation: fixes and additions.
+
+  Major changes between OpenSSL 0.9.7 and OpenSSL 0.9.7a:
+
+      o Security: Important security related bugfixes.
+      o Enhanced compatibility with MIT Kerberos.
+      o Can be built without the ENGINE framework.
+      o IA32 assembler enhancements.
+      o Support for new platforms: FreeBSD/IA64 and FreeBSD/Sparc64.
+      o Configuration: the no-err option now works properly.
+      o SSL/TLS: now handles manual certificate chain building.
+      o SSL/TLS: certain session ID malfunctions corrected.

+      o Extended support for some platforms: VxWorks
+      o Enhanced support for shared libraries.
+      o Support for pkg-config.
+      o Lots of new manuals.
       o Change DES API to clean up the namespace (some applications link also
         against libdes providing similar functions having the same name).
         Provide macros for backward compatibility (will be removed in the
         future).
-      o Unifiy handling of cryptographic algorithms (software and
-        engine) to be available via EVP routines for asymmetric and
-        symmetric ciphers.

       o NCONF: new configuration handling routines.
       o Change API to use more 'const' modifiers to improve error checking
         and help optimizers.
