  Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.7  [xx XXX 2000]
 
+  *) New function X509_signature_print() to remove duplication in some
+     print routines.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Add a special meaning when SET OF and SEQUENCE OF flags are both
+     set (this was treated exactly the same as SET OF previously). This
+     is used to reorder the STACK representing the structure to match the
+     encoding. This will be used to get round a problem where a PKCS7
+     structure which was signed could not be verified because the STACK
+     order did not reflect the encoded order.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Reimplement the OCSP ASN1 module using the new code.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Update the X509V3 code to permit the use of an ASN1_ITEM structure
+     for its ASN1 operations. The old style function pointers still exist
+     for now but they will eventually go away.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Merge in replacement ASN1 code from the ASN1 branch. This almost
+     completely replaces the old ASN1 functionality.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Change BN_mod_exp_recp so that negative moduli are tolerated
+     (the sign is ignored).  Similarly, ignore the sign in BN_MONT_CTX_set
+     so that BN_mod_exp_mont and BN_mod_exp_mont_word work
+     for negative moduli.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Fix BN_uadd and BN_usub: Always return non-negative results instead
+     of not touching the result's sign bit.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) BN_div bugfix: If the result is 0, the sign (res->neg) must not be
+     set.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Changed the LHASH code to use prototypes for callbacks, and created
+     macros to declare and implement thin (optionally static) functions
+     that provide type-safety and avoid function pointer casting for the
+     type-specific callbacks.
+     [Geoff Thorpe]
+
+  *) Use better test patterns in bntest.
+     [Ulf Möller]
+
+  *) Added Kerberos Cipher Suites to be used with TLS, as written in
+     RFC 2712.
+     [Veers Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
+      Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>, via Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
+     [Ulf Möller]
+ 
+  *) BN_rshift bugfix for n == 0.
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Reformat the FAQ so the different questions and answers can be divided
+     in sections depending on the subject.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Have the zlib compression code load ZLIB.DLL dynamically under
+     Windows.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
   *) New function BN_mod_sqrt for computing square roots modulo a prime
-     (Tonelli-Shanks algorithm).
+     (using the probabilistic Tonelli-Shanks algorithm unless
+     p == 3 (mod 4)  or  p == 5 (mod 8),  which are cases that can
+     be handled deterministically).
