  Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6  [xx XXX 2000]
 
+  *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock),
+     not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock).
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared
+     libraries through configuration.  I've kept it so the
+     default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs
+     are always statically linked for now, but there are
+     preparations for dynamic linking in place.
+     This has been tested on Linux and True64.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in:
+     Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong
+     Random Numbers.
+     [Ulf Möller]
+
+  *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing
+     DSA key.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform
+     allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including
+     PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be
+     specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape
+     form signing output easier to verify.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT
+     STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the
+     underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are
+     already assumed to have been read in and checked. These
+     are needed because all other string types have virtually
+     identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions
+     of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets
+     IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows
+     the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED
+     and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows:
+
+     - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following
+       the syntax given in objects.README.
+     - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new
+       obj_mac.h.
+     - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in
+       obj_mac.h.
+
+     This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl
+     isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended.  The simplest way
+     to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and
+     check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved
+     around (this is important!).  Additions are OK, as well as
+     consistent name changes. 
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1').
+     [Bodo Moeller]
+
+  *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'.
+     The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the
+     random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or
+     environment variable, or the default random state file.
+     [Richard Levitte]
+
+  *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order.
+     Previously the output order depended on the order the files
+     appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting
+     of safestack.h .
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly
+     work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as
+     func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that
+     added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
+  *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all 
+     collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of
+     a "stack macro" of the form SKM_<name>(type, a, b). The 
+     DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts,
+     this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the
+     use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined
+     then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the
+     mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see
+     if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK
+     the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF
+     and PKCS12_STACK_OF.
+     [Steve Henson]
+
   *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the
      key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is
      used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case
