+20200831
+	+ build-fix for awk-scripts modified for win32-driver (report by Werner
+	  Fink).
+
+20200829
+	+ remove a redundant NCURSES_EXPORT as a build-fix for "Maarten
+	  Anonymous".
+	+ merge/adapt in-progress work by Juergen Pfeifer for new version of
+	  win32-driver.
+	+ modify configure script, moving gcc -Werror options to EXTRA_CFLAGS
+	  to avoid breaking configure-checks (adapted from ongoing work on
+	  mawk and lynx).
+	> errata for terminfo.src (report by Florian Weimer):
+	+ correct icl6404 csr
+	+ correct ti916 cup
+	+ improve ndr9500
+
+20200822
+	+ improve version-number extraction in MKlib_gen.sh
+	+ make the test-package for manpages installable by adjusting the
+	  man_db.renames file.
+	+ correct an off-by-one loop-limit in convert_strings function
+	  (report by Yue Tai).
+	+ add CF_SHARED_OPTS cases for HPE NonStop systems (Randall S Becker).
+	+ modify CF_SHARED_OPTS case for NetBSD to use the same "-shared"
+	  option for the non-rpath case as for the rpath case, to allow gcc to
+	  provide suitable runtime initialization (report by Rajeev V Pillai).
+
+20200817
+	+ reduce build-warnings by excluding ncurses-internals from deprecation
+	  warnings.
+	+ mark wgetch-events feature as deprecated.
+	+ add definition for $(LIBS) to ncurses/Makefile.in, to simplify builds
+	  using the string-hacks option.
+	+ prevent KEY_EVENT from appearing in curses.h unless the configure
+	  option --enable-wgetch-events is used (report by Werner Fink).
+
+20200816
+	+ amend tic/infocmp check to allow for the respective tool's absence
+	  (report by Steve Wills, cf: 20200808).
+	+ improved some of the build-scripts with shellcheck
+	+ filter out -MT/-MD/-MTd/-MDd options in script for Visual Studio C++
+	  (discussion with "Maarten Anonymous").
+
+20200808
+	+ improve discussion of the system's tic utility when used as part
+	  of cross-compiling (discussion with Keith Marshall).
+	+ modify configuration checks for build-time tic/infocmp to use
+	  AC_CHECK_TOOL. That can still be overridden by --with-tic-path and
+	  --with-infocmp-path when fallbacks are used, but even if not using
+	  fallbacks, the improved check may help with cross-compiling
+	  (discussion with Keith Marshall).
+	+ other build-fixes for Ada95 with MinGW.
+	+ modify Ada95 source-generation utility to write to a file given as
+	  parameter rather than to the standard output, allowing builds with
+	  MinGW.
+
+20200801
+	+ remove remaining parts of checks for ISC Unix (cf: 20121006).
+	+ add user32.lib to LDFLAGS for Visual Studio C++ configuration
+	  (discussion with "Maarten Anonymous").
+	+ modify MKkey_defs.sh to hide ncurses' definition of KEY_EVENTS to
+	  reduce Visual Studio C++ redefinition warnings.
+	+ improve/update checks for external functions in test/configure
+
+20200725
+	+ set LINK_TESTS in CF_SHARED_OPTS for msvc (patch by
+	  "Maarten Anonymous")
+	+ improved workaround for redefinition-warnings for KEY_EVENT.
+	+ improve man/term.5 section on legacy storage format (report by
+	  Florian Weimer).
+
+20200718
+	+ reduce redefinition-warnings for KEY_EVENT when building with Visual
+	  Studio C++.
+	+ define NCURSES_STATIC when compiling programs to link with static
+	  libraries, to work with MinGW vs Visual Studio C++.
+	> additional changes for building with Visual Studio C++ and msys2
+	  (reports/patches by "Maarten Anonymous")
+	+ modify c++/Makefile.in to set the current directory while compiling
+	  the main program, so the linker can find related objects.
+	+ several changes to allow the c++/demo program to compile/link.
+	+ change an ifdef in test-directory, to use VC++ wide-character funcs.
+
 20200711
 	+ fix pound-sign mapping in acsc of linux2.6 entry (report by Ingo
 	  Bruckl).
