  Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4
 
+  *) Fix memory leaks in DSA_do_sign and DSA_is_prime.
+     Also really enable memory leak checks in openssl.c and in some
+     test programs.
+     [Chad C. Mulligan, Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Fix a bug in d2i_ASN1_INTEGER() and i2d_ASN1_INTEGER() which can mess
+     up the length of negative integers. This has now been simplified to just
+     store the length when it is first determined and use it later, rather
+     than trying to keep track of where data is copied and updating it to
+     point to the end.
+     [Steve Henson, reported by Brien Wheeler
+      <bwheeler@authentica-security.com>]
+
+  *) Add a new function PKCS7_signatureVerify. This allows the verification
+     of a PKCS#7 signature but with the signing certificate passed to the
+     function itself. This contrasts with PKCS7_dataVerify which assumes the
+     certificate is present in the PKCS#7 structure. This isn't always the
+     case: certificates can be omitted from a PKCS#7 structure and be
+     distributed by "out of band" means (such as a certificate database).
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Complete the PEM_* macros with DECLARE_PEM versions to replace the
+     function prototypes in pem.h, also change util/mkdef.pl to add the
+     necessary function names. 
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) mk1mf.pl (used by Windows builds) did not properly read the
+     options set by Configure in the top level Makefile; typo fixed,
+     now "no-idea" etc. works as intended.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) New functions CONF_load_bio() and CONF_load_fp() to allow a config
+     file to be loaded from a BIO or FILE pointer. The BIO version will
+     for example allow memory BIOs to contain config info.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) New function "CRYPTO_num_locks" that returns CRYPTO_NUM_LOCKS.
+     Whoever hopes to achieve shared-library compatibility across versions
+     must use this, not the compile-time macro.
+     (Exercise 0.9.4: Which is the minimum library version required by
+     such programs?)
+     Note: All this applies only to multi-threaded programs, others don't
+     need locks.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Add missing case to s3_clnt.c state machine -- one of the new SSL tests
+     through a BIO pair triggered the default case, i.e.
+     SSLerr(...,SSL_R_UNKNOWN_STATE).
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) New "BIO pair" concept (crypto/bio/bss_bio.c) so that applications
+     can use the SSL library even if none of the specific BIOs is
+     appropriate.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Fix a bug in i2d_DSAPublicKey() which meant it returned the wrong value
+     for the encoded length.
+     [Jeon KyoungHo <khjeon@sds.samsung.co.kr>]
+
+  *) Add initial documentation of the X509V3 functions.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Add a new pair of functions PEM_write_PKCS8PrivateKey() and 
+     PEM_write_bio_PKCS8PrivateKey() that are equivalent to
+     PEM_write_PrivateKey() and PEM_write_bio_PrivateKey() but use the more
+     secure PKCS#8 private key format with a high iteration count.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
   *) Fix determination of Perl interpreter: A perl or perl5
      _directory_ in $PATH was also accepted as the interpreter.
      [Ralf S. Engelschall]
