  Changes between 0.9.8j and 0.9.9  [xx XXX xxxx]
 
+  *) Update Gost ENGINE to support parameter files.

+
+  *) Support GeneralizedTime in ca utility. 
+     [Oliver Martin <oliver@volatilevoid.net>, Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Enhance the hash format used for certificate directory links. The new
+     form uses the canonical encoding (meaning equivalent names will work
+     even if they aren't identical) and uses SHA1 instead of MD5. This form
+     is incompatible with the older format and as a result c_rehash should
+     be used to rebuild symbolic links.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Make PKCS#8 the default write format for private keys, replacing the
+     traditional format. This form is standardised, more secure and doesn't
+     include an implicit MD5 dependency.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Add a $gcc_devteam_warn option to Configure. The idea is that any code
+     committed to OpenSSL should pass this lot as a minimum.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
   *) Add session ticket override functionality for use by EAP-FAST.

+
+  *) Set S/MIME signing as the default purpose rather than setting it 
+     unconditionally. This allows applications to override it at the store
+     level.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Permit restricted recursion of ASN1 strings. This is needed in practice
+     to handle some structures.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Improve efficiency of mem_gets: don't search whole buffer each time
+     for a '\n'
+     [Jeremy Shapiro <jnshapir@us.ibm.com>]

+     [Matthieu Herrb]
+
+  *) Print out UTF8String and NumericString when parsing ASN1.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Support NumericString type for name components.
+     [Steve Henson]
+  
+  *) Allow CC in the environment to override the automatically chosen
+     compiler. Note that nothing is done to ensure flags work with the
+     chosen compiler.

   *) Allow the CHIL engine to be loaded, whether the application is
      multithreaded or not. (This does not release the developer from the
