+20171230
+	+ build-fix for ncurses-examples with Fedora27, adding check for
+	  reset_color_pairs() -- not yet in Fedora's package.
+	+ consistently add $CFLAGS to $MK_SHARED_LIB symbol in configure
+	  script when the latter happens to use the C compiler rather than
+	  directly using the loader (report by Jeffrey Walton).
+	+ set ABI for upcoming 6.1 release in "*.map" files.  While there are
+	  some remaining internals to apply, no ABI-related changes are
+	  anticipated.
+	+ add configure --with-config-suffix option to work around filename
+	  conflict with Redhat packages versus test-packages.
+
+20171223
+	+ modify ncurses-examples to quiet const-warnings when building with
+	  PDCurses.
+	+ modify toe to not exit if unable to read a terminal description,
+	  e.g., if there is a permission problem.
+	+ minor fix for progs/toe.c, using _nc_free_termtype2.
+	+ assign 0 to pointer in _nc_tgetent_leak() after freeing it. Also
+	  avoid reusing pointer from previous successful call to tgetent
+	  if the latest call is unsuccessful (patch by Michael Schroeder,
+	  OpenSuSE #1070450).
+	+ minor fix for test/tracemunch, initialize $awaiting variable.
+
+20171216
+	+ repair template in test/package/ncurses-examples.spec (cf: 20171111).
+	+ improve tic's warning about the number of parameters tparm might use
+	  for u1-u9 by making a special case for u6.
+	+ improve curs_attr.3x discussion of color pairs.
+
+20171209
+	+ modify misc/ncurses-config.in to make output with --includedir
+	  consistent with --cflags, i.e., when --disable-overwrite option was
+	  configured the output should show the subdirectory where headers
+	  are.
+	+ modify MKlib_gen.sh to suppress macros when calling an "implemented"
+	  function in link_test.c
+	+ updated ftp-url used in test-packages, etc.
+	+ modify order of -pie/-shared options in configure script in case
+	  LDFLAGS uses "-pie", working around a defect or limitation in the GNU
+	  linker (prompted by patch by Yogesh Prasad, forwarded by Jay Shah).
+	+ add entry in man_db.renames for user_caps.5
+
+20171125
+	+ modify MKlib_gen.sh to avoid tracing result from getstr/getnstr
+	  before initialized.
+	+ add "-a" aspect-ratio option to picsmap.
+	+ add configure check for default path of rgb.txt, used in picsmap.
+	+ modify _nc_write_entry() to truncate too-long filename (report by
+	  Hosein Askari, Debian #882620).
+	+ build-fix for ncurses-examples with NetBSD curses:
+	  + it lacks the use_env() function.
+	  + it lacks libpanel; a recent change used the wrong ifdef symbol.
+	+ add a macro for is_linetouched() and adjust the function's return
+	  value to make it possible for most applications to check for an
+	  error-return (report by Midolikawa H).
+	+ additional manpage cleanup.
+	+ update config.guess, config.sub from
+		http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/config.git
+
+20171118
+	+ add a note to curs_addch.3x on portability.
+	+ add a note to curs_pad.3x on the origin and portability of pads.
+	+ improve manpage description of getattrs (report by Midolikawa H).
+	+ improve manpage macros (prompted by discussion in Debian #880551.
+	+ reviewed test-programs using KEY_RESIZE, made fixes to test/worm.c
+	+ add a "-d" option to picsmap for default-colors.
+	+ modify old terminology entry and a few other terminal emulators to
+	  account for xon -TD
+	+ correct sgr string for tmux, which used screen's "standout" code
+	  rather than the standard code (patch by Roman Kagan)
+	+ correct sgr/sgr0 strings in a few other cases reported by tic, making
+	  those correspond to the non-sgr settings where they differ, but
+	  otherwise use ECMA-48 consistently:
+	  jaixterm, aixterm, att5420_2, att4424, att500, decansi, d410-7b,
+	  dm80, hpterm, emu-220, hp2, iTerm2.app, mterm-ansi, ncrvt100an,
+	  st-0.7, vi603, vwmterm -TD
+	+ build-fix for diagnostics warning in lib_mouse.c for pre-5.0 versions
+	  of gcc which did not recognize the diagnostic "push" pragma (patch by
+	  Vassili Courzakis).
+
 20171111
 	+ add "op" to xterm+256setaf -TD
 	+ reviewed terminology 1.0.0 -TD
