+20180414
+	+ modify form library to optionally delay cursor movement on a field
+	  edge/boundary (patch by Leon Winter).
+	+ modify form library to avoid unnecessary update of cursor position in
+	  non-public fields (patch by Leon Winter).
+	+ remove unused _nc_import_termtype2() function.
+	+ also add/improve null-pointer checks in other places
+	+ add a null-pointer check in _nc_parse_entry to handle an error when
+	  a use-name is invalid syntax (report by Chung-Yi Lin).
+
+20180407
+	+ clarify in manual pages that vwprintw and vwscanw are obsolete,
+	  not part of X/Open Curses since 2007.
+	+ use "const" in some prototypes rather than NCURSES_CONST where X/Open
+	  Curses was updated to do this, e.g., wscanw, newterm, the terminfo
+	  interface.  Also use "const" for consistency in the termcap
+	  interface, which was withdrawn by X/Open Curses in Issue 5 (2007). 
+	  As of Issue 7, X/Open Curses still lacks "const" for certain return
+	  values, e.g., keyname().
+
+20180331
+	+ improve terminfo write/read by modifying the fourth item of the
+	  extended header to denote the number of valid strings in the extended
+	  string table (prompted by a comment in unibilium's sources).
+
+20180324
+	+ amend Scaled256() macro in test/picsmap.c to cover the full range
+	  0..1000 (report by Roger Pau Monne).
+	+ add some checks in tracemunch for undefined variables.
+	+ trim some redundant capabilities from st-0.7 -TD
+	+ trim unnecessary setf/setb from interix -TD
+
+20180317
+	+ fix a check in infotocap which may not have detected a problem when
+	  it should have.
+	+ add a check in tic for the case where setf/setb are given using
+	  different strings, but provide identical results to setaf/setab.
+	+ further improve fix for terminfo.5 (patch by Kir Kolyshkin).
+	+ reorder loop-limit checks in winsnstr() in case the string has no
+	  terminating null and only the number of characters is used (patch
+	  by Gyorgy Jeney).
+
+20180303
+	+ modify TurnOn/TurnOff macros in lib_vidattr.c and lib_vid_attr.c to
+	  avoid expansion of "CUR" in trace.
+	+ improve a few lintian warnings in test-packages.
+	+ modify lib_setup to avoid calling pthread_self() without first
+	  verifying that the address is valid, i.e., for weak symbols
+	  (report/patch by Werner Fink).
+	+ modify generated terminfo.5 to not use "expand" and related width
+	  on the last column of tables, making layout on wide terminals look
+	  better (adapted from patch by Kir Kolyshkin).
+	+ add a category to report_offsets, e.g., "w" for wide-character, "t"
+	  for threads to make the report more readable.  Reorganized the
+	  structures reported to make the categories more apparent.
+	+ simplify some ifdef's for extended-colors.
+	+ add NCURSES_GLOBALS and NCURSES_PRESCREEN to report_offsets, to show
+	  how similar the different tinfo configurations are.
+
 20180224
 	+ modify _nc_resolve_uses2() to detect incompatible types when merging
 	  a "use=" clause of extended capabilities.  The problem was seen in a
