  Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.7  [xx XXX 2000]
 
+  *) Remove a few calls to bn_wexpand() in BN_sqr() (the one in there
+     was actually never needed) and in BN_mul().  The removal in BN_mul()
+     required a small change in bn_mul_part_recursive() and the addition
+     of the static functions bn_cmp_part_words(), bn_sub_part_words()
+     and bn_add_part_words() which do the same thing as bn_cmp_words(),
+     bn_sub_words() and bn_add_words() except they take arrays with
+     differing sizes.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) In 'openssl passwd', verify passwords read from the terminal
+     unless the '-salt' option is used (which usually means that
+     verification would just waste user's time since the resulting
+     hash is going to be compared with some given password hash)
+     or the new '-noverify' option is used.
+
+     This is an incompatible change, but it does not affect
+     non-interactive use of 'openssl passwd' (passwords on the command
+     line, '-stdin' option, '-in ...' option) and thus should not
+     cause any problems.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Remove all references to RSAref, since there's no more need for it.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
+     The previous value, 12, was not always sufficient for BN_mod_exp().
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Make DSO load along a path given through an environment variable
+     (SHLIB_PATH) with shl_load().
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Constify the ENGINE code as a result of BIGNUM constification.
+     Also constify the RSA code and most things related to it.  In a
+     few places, most notable in the depth of the ASN.1 code, ugly
+     casts back to non-const were required (to be solved at a later
+     time)
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Make it so the openssl application has all engines loaded by default.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Constify the BIGNUM routines a little more.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Make sure that shared libraries get the internal name engine with
+     the full version number and not just 0.  This should mark the
+     shared libraries as not backward compatible.  Of course, this should
+     be changed again when we can guarantee backward binary compatibility.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Add the following functions:
+
+	ENGINE_load_cswift()
+	ENGINE_load_chil()
+	ENGINE_load_atalla()
+	ENGINE_load_nuron()
+	ENGINE_load_builtin_engines()
+
+     That way, an application can itself choose if external engines that
+     are built-in in OpenSSL shall ever be used or not.  The benefit is
+     that applications won't have to be linked with libdl or other dso
+     libraries unless it's really needed.
+
+     Changed 'openssl engine' to load all engines on demand.
+     Changed the engine header files to avoid the duplication of some
+     declarations (they differed!).
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) 'openssl engine' can now list capabilities.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Better error reporting in 'openssl engine'.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Never call load_dh_param(NULL) in s_server.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Add engine application.  It can currently list engines by name and
+     identity, and test if they are actually available.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Add support for shared libraries under Irix.
+     [Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>]
+
+  *) Improve RPM specification file by forcing symbolic linking and making
+     sure the installed documentation is also owned by root.root.
+     [Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>]
+
+  *) Add configuration option to build on Linux on both big-endian and
+     little-endian MIPS.
+     [Ralf Baechle <ralf@uni-koblenz.de>]
+
+  *) Give the OpenSSL applications more possibilities to make use of
+     keys (public as well as private) handled by engines.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
   *) Add OCSP code that comes from CertCo.
