+20160116
+	+ tidy up comments about hardcoded 256color palette (report by
+	  Leonardo Brondani Schenkel) -TD
+	+ add putty-noapp entry, and amend putty entry to use application mode
+	  for better consistency with xterm (report by Leonardo Brondani
+	  Schenkel) -TD
+	+ modify _nc_viscbuf2() and _tracecchar_t2() to trace wide-characters
+	  as a whole rather than their multibyte equivalents.
+	+ minor fix in wadd_wchnstr() to ensure that each cell has nonzero
+	  width.
+	+ move PUTC_INIT calls next to wcrtomb calls, to avoid carry-over of
+	  error status when processing Unicode values which are not mapped.
+
+20160102
+	+ modify ncurses c/C color test-screens to take advantage of wide
+	  screens, reducing the number of lines used for 88- and 256-colors.
+	+ minor refinement to check versus ncv to ignore two parameters of
+	  SGR 38 and 48 when those come from color-capabilities.
+
+20151226
+	+ add check in tic for use of bold, etc., video attributes in the
+	  color capabilities, accounting whether the feature is listed in ncv.
+	+ add check in tic for conflict between ritm, rmso, rmul versus sgr0.
+
+20151219
+	+ add a paragraph to curs_getch.3x discussing key naming (discussion
+	  with James Crippen).
+	+ amend workaround for Solaris vs line-drawing to take the configure
+	  check into account.
+	+ add a configure check for wcwidth() versus the ncurses line-drawing
+	  characters, to use in special-casing systems such as Solaris.
+
+20151212
+	+ improve CF_XOPEN_CURSES macro used in test/configure, to define as
+	  needed NCURSES_WIDECHAR for platforms where _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
+	  does not work.  Also modified the test program to ensure that if
+	  building with ncurses, that the cchar_t type is checked, since that
+	  normally is since 20111030 ifdef'd depending on this test.
+	+ improve 20121222 workaround for broken acs, letting Solaris "work"
+	  in spite of its misconfigured wcwidth which marks all of the line
+	  drawing characters as double-width.
+
+20151205
+	+ update form_cursor.3x, form_post.3x, menu_attributes.3x to list
+	  function names in NAME section (patch by Jason McIntyre).
+	+ minor fixes to manpage NAME/SYNOPSIS sections to consistently use
+	  rule that either all functions which are prototyped in SYNOPSIS are
+	  listed in the NAME section, or the manual-page name is the sole item
+	  listed in the NAME section.  The latter is used to reduce clutter,
+	  e.g., for the top-level library manual pages as well as for certain
+	  feature-pages such as SP-funcs and threading (prompted by patches by
+	  Jason McIntyre).
+
 20151128
+	+ add option to preserve leading whitespace in form fields (patch by
+	  Leon Winter).
 	+ add missing assignment in lib_getch.c to make notimeout() work
 	  (Debian #805618).
 	+ add 't' toggle for notimeout() function in test/ncurses.c a/A screens
