+20141101
+       + improve strict compiler-warnings by adding a cast in TRACE_RETURN
+         and making a new TRACE_RETURN1 macro for cases where the cast does
+         not apply.
+
+20141025
+       + in-progress changes to integrate the win32 console driver with the
+         msys2 configuration.
+
+20141018
+       + reviewed terminology 0.6.1, add function key definitions.  None of
+         the vt100-compatibility issues were improved -TD
+       + improve infocmp conversion of extended capabilities to termcap by
+         correcting the limit check against parametrized[], as well as filling
+         in a check if the string happens to have parameters, e.g., "xm"
+         in recent changes.
+       + add check for zero/negative dimensions for resizeterm and resize_term
+         (report by Mike Gran).
+
+20141011
+       + add experimental support for xterm's 1005 mouse mode, to use in a
+         demonstration of its limitations.
+       + add experimental support for "%u" format to terminfo.
+       + modify test/ncurses.c to also show position reports in 'a' test.
+       + minor formatting fixes to _nc_trace_mmask_t, make this function
+         exported to help with debugging mouse changes.
+       + improve behavior of wheel-mice for xterm protocol, noting that there
+         are only button-presses for buttons "4" and "5", so there is no need
+         to wait to combine events into double-clicks (report/analysis by
+         Greg Field).
+       + provide examples xterm-1005 and xterm-1006 terminfo entries -TD
+       + implement decoder for xterm SGR 1006 mouse mode.
+
 20140927
        + implement curs_set in win_driver.c
        + implement flash in win_driver.c
