+20190112
+       + fix typo in term(5), improve explanation of format (report by Otto
+         Modinos).
+       + add nsterm-direct -TD
+       + use SGR 1006 mouse for konsole-base -TD
+       + use SGR 1006 mouse for putty -TD
+       + add ti703/ti707, ti703-w/ti707-w (Robert Clausecker)
+
+20190105
+       + add dummy "check" rule in top-level and test-Makefile to simply
+         building test-packages for Arch.
+       + modify configure script to avoid conflict with a non-POSIX feature 
+         that enables all parts of the system headers by default.  Some
+         packagers have come to rely upon this behavior (FreeBSD #234049).
+       + update config.guess, config.sub
+
+20181229
+       + improve man/curs_mouse.3x with regard to xterm
+       + modify tracemunch to accept filename parameters in addition to use
+         as a pipe/filter.
+       + minor optimization to reduce calls to _nc_reserve_pairs (prompted by
+         discussion with Bryan Christ).
+       + add test/pair_content.c and test/color_content.c
+       + modify infocmp to omit filtering of "OTxx" names which are used for
+         obsolete capabilities, when the output is sorted by long-names.
+         Doing this helps when making a table of the short/long capability
+         names.
+
+20181215
+       + several fixes for gcc8 strict compiler warnings.
+       + fix a typo in comments (Aaron Gyes).
+       + add nsterm-build309 to replace nsterm-256color, assigning the latter
+         as an alias of nsterm, to make mouse work with nsterm-256color -TD
+       + base gnome-256color entry on "gnome", not "vte", for consistency -TD
+       + updates for configure macros from work on tin and xterm:
+         + CF_GNU_SOURCE, allow for Cygwin's newlib when checking for the
+           _DEFAULT_SOURCE symbol.
+         + CF_VA_COPY, add fallback check if neither va_copy/__va_copy is
+           supported, to try copying the pointers for va_list, or as an array.
+           Also add another fallback check, for __builtin_va_copy(), which
+           could be used with AIX xlc in c89 mode.
+
 20181208
        + modify wbkgd() and wbkgrnd() to improve compatibility with SVr4
          curses, changing the way the window rendition is updated when the
