+20101106
+	+ correct list of sub-directories needed in Ada95 tree for building as
+	  a separate package.
+	+ modify scripts in test-directory to improve builds as a separate
+	  package.
+
+20101023
+	+ correct parsing of relative tab-stops in tabs program (report by
+	  Philip Ganchev).
+	+ adjust configure script so that "t" is not added to library suffix
+	  when weak-symbols are used, allowing the pthread configuration to
+	  more closely match the non-thread naming (report by Werner Fink).
+	+ modify configure check for tic program, used for fallbacks, to a
+	  warning if not found.  This makes it simpler to use additonal
+	  scripts to bootstrap the fallbacks code using tic from the build
+	  tree (report by Werner Fink).
+	+ fix several places in configure script using ${variable-value} form.
+	+ modify configure macro CF_LDFLAGS_STATIC to accommodate some loaders
+	  which do not support selectively linking against static libraries
+	  (report by John P. Hartmann)
+	+ fix an unescaped dash in man/tset.1 (report by Sven Joachim).
+
+20101009
+	+ correct comparison used for setting 16-colors in linux-16color
+	  entry (Novell #644831) -TD
+	+ improve linux-16color entry, using "dim" for color-8 which makes it
+	  gray rather than black like color-0 -TD
+	+ drop misc/ncu-indent and misc/jpf-indent; they are provided by an
+	  external package "cindent".
+
+20101002
+	+ improve linkages in html manpages, adding references to the newer
+	  pages, e.g., *_variables, curs_sp_funcs, curs_threads.
+	+ add checks in tic for inconsistent cursor-movement controls, and for
+	  inconsistent printer-controls.
+	+ fill in no-parameter forms of cursor-movement where a parameterized
+	  form is available -TD
+	+ fill in missing cursor controls where the form of the controls is
+	  ANSI -TD
+	+ fix inconsistent punctuation in form_variables manpage (patch by
+	  Sven Joachim).
+	+ add parameterized cursor-controls to linux-basic (report by Dae) -TD
+	> patch by Juergen Pfeifer:
+	+ document how to build 32-bit libraries in README.MinGW 
+	+ fixes to filename computation in mk-dlls.sh.in 
+	+ use POSIX locale in mk-dlls.sh.in rather than en_US (report by Sven
+	  Joachim).
+	+ add a check in mk-dlls.sh.in to obtain the size of a pointer to
+	  distinguish between 32-bit and 64-bit hosts.  The result is stored
+	  in mingw_arch
+
+20100925
+	+ add "XT" capability to entries for terminals that support both
+	  xterm-style mouse- and title-controls, for "screen" which
+	  special-cases TERM beginning with "xterm" or "rxvt" -TD
+	> patch by Juergen Pfeifer:
+	+ use 64-Bit MinGW toolchain (recommended package from TDM, see
+	  README.MinGW).
+	+ support pthreads when using the TDM MinGW toolchain
+
+20100918
+	+ regenerated html manpages.
+	+ minor fixes for symlinks to curs_legacy.3x and curs_slk.3x manpages.
+	+ add manpage for sp-funcs.
+	+ add sp-funcs to test/listused.sh, for documentation aids.
+
+20100911
+	+ add manpages for summarizing public variables of curses-, terminfo-
+	  and form-libraries.
+	+ minor fixes to manpages for consistency (patch by Jason McIntyre).
+	+ modify tic's -I/-C dump to reformat acsc strings into canonical form
+	  (sorted, unique mapping) (cf: 971004).
+	+ add configure check for pthread_kill(), needed for some old
+	  platforms.
+
 20100904
 	+ add configure option --without-tests, to suppress building test
 	  programs (request by Frederic L W Meunier).
