- Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a [?]  [xx May? 1999]
+ Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4
+
+  *) DES library cleanups.
+     [Ulf Möller]
+
+  *) Add support for PKCS#5 v2.0 PBE algorithms. This will permit PKCS#8 to be
+     used with any cipher unlike PKCS#5 v1.5 which can at most handle 64 bit
+     ciphers. NOTE: although the key derivation function has been verified
+     against some published test vectors it has not been extensively tested
+     yet. Added a -v2 "cipher" option to pkcs8 application to allow the use
+     of v2.0.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Instead of "mkdir -p", which is not fully portable, use new
+     Perl script "util/mkdir-p.pl".
+
+  *) Rewrite the way password based encryption (PBE) is handled. It used to
+     assume that the ASN1 AlgorithmIdentifier parameter was a PBEParameter
+     structure. This was true for the PKCS#5 v1.5 and PKCS#12 PBE algorithms
+     but doesn't apply to PKCS#5 v2.0 where it can be something else. Now
+     the 'parameter' field of the AlgorithmIdentifier is passed to the
+     underlying key generation function so it must do its own ASN1 parsing.
+     This has also changed the EVP_PBE_CipherInit() function which now has a
+     'parameter' argument instead of literal salt and iteration count values
+     and the function EVP_PBE_ALGOR_CipherInit() has been deleted.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Support for PKCS#5 v1.5 compatible password based encryption algorithms
+     and PKCS#8 functionality. New 'pkcs8' application linked to openssl.
+     Needed to change the PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY value which was just "PRIVATE
+     KEY" because this clashed with PKCS#8 unencrypted string. Since this
+     value was just used as a "magic string" and not used directly its
+     value doesn't matter.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Introduce some semblance of const correctness to BN. Shame C doesn't
+     support mutable.
+     [Ben Laurie]
+
+  *) "linux-sparc64" configuration (ultrapenguin).
+     [Ray Miller <ray.miller@oucs.ox.ac.uk>]
+     "linux-sparc" configuration.
+     [Christian Forster <fo@hawo.stw.uni-erlangen.de>]
+
+  *) config now generates no-xxx options for missing ciphers.
+     [Ulf Möller]
+
+  *) Support the EBCDIC character set (work in progress).
+     File ebcdic.c not yet included because it has a different license.
+     [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
+
+  *) Support BS2000/OSD-POSIX.
+     [Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@MchP.Siemens.De>]
+
+  *) Make callbacks for key generation use void * instead of char *.
+     [Ben Laurie]
+
+  *) Make S/MIME samples compile (not yet tested).
+     [Ben Laurie]
+
+  *) Additional typesafe stacks.
+     [Ben Laurie]
+
+  *) New configuration variants "bsdi-elf-gcc" (BSD/OS 4.x).
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+
+ Changes between 0.9.3 and 0.9.3a  [29 May 1999]
+
+  *) New configuration variant "sco5-gcc".
+
+  *) Updated some demos.
+     [Sean O Riordain, Wade Scholine]
+
+  *) Add missing BIO_free at exit of pkcs12 application.
+     [Wu Zhigang]
+
+  *) Fix memory leak in conf.c.
+     [Steve Henson]
 
   *) Updates for Win32 to assembler version of MD5.
