  Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6  [xx XXX 2000]
 
+  *) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
+     with an initial SSL 3.0/TLS record that is too small to contain the
+     first two bytes of the ClientHello message, i.e. client_version.
+     (Note that this is a pathologic case that probably has never happened
+     in real life.)  The previous approach was to use the version number
+     from the record header as a substitute; but our protocol choice
+     should not depend on that one because it is not authenticated
+     by the Finished messages.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) For compatibility reasons if the flag X509_V_FLAG_ISSUER_CHECK is
+     not set then we don't setup the error code for issuer check errors
+     to avoid possibly overwriting other errors which the callback does
+     handle. If an application does set the flag then we assume it knows
+     what it is doing and can handle the new informational codes
+     appropriately.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Fix for a nasty bug in ASN1_TYPE handling. ASN1_TYPE is used for
+     a general "ANY" type, as such it should be able to decode anything
+     including tagged types. However it didn't check the class so it would
+     wrongly interpret tagged types in the same way as their universal
+     counterpart and unknown types were just rejected. Changed so that the
+     tagged and unknown types are handled in the same way as a SEQUENCE:
+     that is the encoding is stored intact. There is also a new type
+     "V_ASN1_OTHER" which is used when the class is not universal, in this
+     case we have no idea what the actual type is so we just lump them all
+     together.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) On VMS, stdout may very well lead to a file that is written to
+     in a record-oriented fashion.  That means that every write() will
+     write a separate record, which will be read separately by the
+     programs trying to read from it.  This can be very confusing.
+
+     The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer
+     text until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a
+     line at a time, so every record written will be an actual line,
+     not chunks of lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've
+     seen it once) several lines in one record.  BIO_f_linebuffer() is
+     the answer.
+
+     Currently, it's a VMS-only method, because that's where it has
+     been tested well enough.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Remove 'optimized' squaring variant in BN_mod_mul_montgomery,
+     it can return incorrect results.
+     (Note: The buggy variant was not enabled in OpenSSL 0.9.5a,
+     but it was in 0.9.6-beta[12].)
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Disable the check for content being present when verifying detached
+     signatures in pk7_smime.c. Some versions of Netscape (wrongly)
+     include zero length content when signing messages.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) New BIO_shutdown_wr macro, which invokes the BIO_C_SHUTDOWN_WR
+     BIO_ctrl (for BIO pairs).
+
+  *) Add DSO method for VMS.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Bug fix: Montgomery multiplication could produce results with the
+     wrong sign.
+     [Ulf Möller]
+
   *) Add RPM specification openssl.spec and modify it to build three
      packages.  The default package contains applications, application
      documentation and run-time libraries.  The devel package contains
