+20080712
+	+ compiler-warning fixes for Solaris.
+
+20080705
+	+ use NCURSES_MOUSE_MASK() in definition of BUTTON_RELEASE(), etc., to
+	  make those work properly with the "--enable-ext-mouse" configuration
+	  (cf: 20050205).
+	+ improve documentation of build-cc options in INSTALL.
+	+ work-around a bug in gcc 4.2.4 on AIX, which does not pass the
+	  -static/-dynamic flags properly to linker, causing test/bs to
+	  not link.
+
+20080628
+	+ correct some ifdef's needed for the broken-linker configuration.
+	+ make debugging library's $BAUDRATE feature work for termcap
+	  interface.
+	+ make $NCURSES_NO_PADDING feature work for termcap interface (prompted
+	  by comment on FreeBSD mailing list).
+	+ add screen.mlterm terminfo entry -TD
+	+ improve mlterm and mlterm+pcfkeys terminfo entries -TD
+
+20080621
+	+ regenerated html documentation.
+	+ expand manpage description of parameters for form_driver() and
+	  menu_driver() (prompted by discussion with Adam Spragg).
+	+ add null-pointer checks for cur_term in baudrate() and
+	  def_shell_mode(), def_prog_mode()
+	+ fix some memory leaks in delscreen() and wide acs.
+
+20080614
+	+ modify test/ditto.c to illustrate multi-threaded use_screen().
+	+ change CC_SHARED_OPTS from -KPIC to -xcode=pic32 for Solaris.
+	+ add "-shared" option to MK_SHARED_LIB for gcc on Solaris (report
+	  by Poor Yorick).
+
+20080607
+	+ finish changes to wgetch(), making it switch as needed to the
+	  window's actual screen when calling wrefresh() and wgetnstr().  That
+	  allows wgetch() to get used concurrently in different threads with
+	  some minor restrictions, e.g., the application should not delete a
+	  window which is being used in a wgetch().
+	+ simplify mutex's, combining the window- and screen-mutex's.
+
+20080531
+	+ modify wgetch() to use the screen which corresponds to its window
+	  parameter rather than relying on SP; some dependent functions still
+	  use SP internally.
+	+ factor out most use of SP in lib_mouse.c, using parameter.
+	+ add internal _nc_keyname(), replacing keyname() to associate with a
+	  particular SCREEN rather than the global SP.
+	+ add internal _nc_unctrl(), replacing unctrl() to associate with a
+	  particular SCREEN rather than the global SP.
+	+ add internal _nc_tracemouse(), replacing _tracemouse() to eliminate
+	  its associated global buffer _nc_globals.tracemse_buf now in SCREEN.
+	+ add internal _nc_tracechar(), replacing _tracechar() to use SCREEN in
+	  preference to the global _nc_globals.tracechr_buf buffer.
+
+20080524
+	+ modify _nc_keypad() to make it switch temporarily as needed to the
+	  screen which must be updated.
+	+ wrap cur_term variable to help make _nc_keymap() thread-safe, and
+	  always set the screen's copy of this variable in set_curterm().
+	+ restore curs_set() state after endwin()/refresh() (report/patch
+	  Miroslav Lichvar)
+
+20080517
+	+ modify configure script to note that --enable-ext-colors and
+	  --enable-ext-mouse are not experimental, but extensions from
+	  the ncurses ABI 5.
+	+ corrected manpage description of setcchar() (discussion with
+	  Emanuele Giaquinta).
+	+ fix for adding a non-spacing character at the beginning of a line
+	  (report/patch by Miroslav Lichvar).
+
+20080503
+	+ modify screen.* terminfo entries using new screen+fkeys to fix
+	  overridden keys in screen.rxvt (Debian #478094) -TD
+	+ modify internal interfaces to reduce wgetch()'s dependency on the
+	  global SP.
+	+ simplify some loops with macros each_screen(), each_window() and
+	  each_ripoff().
+
+20080426
+	+ continue modifying test/ditto.c toward making it demonstrate
+	  multithreaded use_screen(), using fifos to pass data between screens.
+	+ fix typo in form.3x (report by Mike Gran).
+
 20080419
 	+ add screen.rxvt terminfo entry -TD
 	+ modify tic -f option to format spaces as \s to prevent them from
