  Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6  [xx XXX 2000]
 
+  *) 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
+     include files, static libraries and function documentation.  The
+     doc package contains the contents of the doc directory.  The original
+     openssl.spec was provided by Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org>.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+     
+  *) Add a large number of documentation files for many SSL routines.
+     [Lutz Jaenicke <Lutz.Jaenicke@aet.TU-Cottbus.DE>]
+
+  *) Add a configuration entry for Sony News 4.
+     [NAKAJI Hiroyuki <nakaji@tutrp.tut.ac.jp>]
+
   *) Don't set the two most significant bits to one when generating a
      random number < q in the DSA library.

   *) New SSL API mode 'SSL_MODE_AUTO_RETRY'.  This disables the default
      behaviour that SSL_read may result in SSL_ERROR_WANT_READ (even if
