+20100731
+       + modify initialization check for win32con driver to eliminate need for
+         special case for TERM "unknown", using terminal database if available
+         (prompted by discussion with Roumen Petrov).
+       + for MinGW port, ensure that terminal driver is setup if tgetent()
+         is called (patch by Roumen Petrov).
+       + document tabs "-0" and "-8" options in manpage.
+       + fix Debian "lintian" issues with manpages reported in
+         http://lintian.debian.org/full/csmall@debian.org.html#ncurses
+
+20100724
+       + add a check in tic for missing set_tab if clear_all_tabs given.
+       + improve use of symbolic links in makefiles by using "-f" option if
+         it is supported, to eliminate temporary removal of the target
+         (prompted by http://www.t2-project.org/packages/ncurses.html)
+       + minor improvement to test/ncurses.c, reset color pairs in 'd' test
+         after exit from 'm' main-menu command.
+       + improved ncu-indent, from mawk changes, allows more than one of
+         GCC_NORETURN, GCC_PRINTFLIKE and GCC_SCANFLIKE on a single line.
+
+20100717
+       + add hard-reset for rs2 to wsvt25 to help ensure that reset ends
+         the alternate character set (patch by Nicholas Marriott)
+       + remove tar-copy.sh and related configure/Makefile chunks, since the
+         Ada95 binding is now installed using rules in Ada95/src.
+

 20100703
        + continue integrating changes to use gnatmake project files in Ada95
