  Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.7  [xx XXX 2000]
 
+  *) Fix for SHA1 assembly problem with MASM: it produces
+     warnings about corrupt line number information when assembling
+     with debugging information. This is caused by the overlapping
+     of two sections.
+     [Bernd Matthes <mainbug@celocom.de>, Steve Henson]
+
+  *) NCONF changes.
+     NCONF_get_number() has no error checking at all.  As a replacement,
+     NCONF_get_number_e() is defined (_e for "error checking") and is
+     promoted strongly.  The old NCONF_get_number is kept around for
+     binary backward compatibility.
+     Make it possible for methods to load from something other than a BIO,
+     by providing a function pointer that is given a name instead of a BIO.
+     For example, this could be used to load configuration data from an
+     LDAP server.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Fix typo in get_cert_by_subject() in by_dir.c
+     [Jean-Marc Desperrier <jean-marc.desperrier@certplus.com>]
+
   *) Rework the system to generate shared libraries:
 
      - Make note of the expected extension for the shared libraries and
