+20180908
+	+ document --with-pcre2 configure option in INSTALL.
+	+ improve workaround for special case in PutAttrChar() where a cell is
+	  marked as alternate-character set, to handle a case where the
+	  character in the cell does not correspond to any of the ASCII
+	  fallbacks (report by Leon Winter, cf: 20180505).
+	+ amend change to form library which attempted to avoid unnecessary
+	  update of cursor position in non-public fields, to simply disable
+	  output in this case (patch by Leon Winter, cf: 20180414).
+	+ improve check for LINE_MAX runtime limit, to accommodate broken
+	  implementations of sysconf().
+
+20180901
+	+ improve manual page for wgetnstr, giving background for the length
+	  parameter.
+	+ define a limit for wgetnstr, wgetn_wstr when length is negative or
+	  "too large".
+	+ update configure script to autoconf 2.52.20180819 (Debian #887390).
+
+20180825
+	+ add a section to tput manual page clarifying how it determines the
+	  terminal size (prompted by discussion with Grant Jenks).
+	+ add "--disable-relink" to rpm test-packages, for consistency with the
+	  deb test-packages.
+	+ split spec-file into ncurses6.spec and ncursest6.spec to work around
+	  toolset breakage in Fedora 28.
+	+ drop mention of "--disable-touching", which was not in the final
+	  20180818 updates.
+
+20180818
+	+ build-fix for PDCurses with ncurses-examples.
+	+ improved CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS.
+	+ modify configure scripts to reduce relinking/ranlib during library
+	  install (Debian #903790):
+	  + use "install -p" when available, to avoid need for ranlib of
+	    static libraries.
+	  + modify scripts which use "--disable-relink" to add a 1-second
+	    sleep to work around tools which use whole-second timestamps, e.g.,
+	    in utime() rather than the actual file system resolution.
+
+20180804
+	+ improve logic for clear with E3 extension, in case the terminal
+	  scrolls content onto its saved-lines before actually clearing
+	  the display, by clearing the saved-lines after clearing the
+	  display (report/patch by Nicholas Marriott).
+
+20180728
+	+ improve documentation regarding feature-test macros in curses.h
+	+ improve documentation regarding the virtual and physical screens.
+	+ formatting fixes for manpages, regenerate man-html documentation.
+
+20180721
+	+ build-fixes for gcc8.
+	+ corrected acsc for wy50 -TD
+	+ add wy50 and wy60 shifted function-keys as kF1 to kF16 -TD
+	+ remove ansi+rep mis-added to interix in 2018-02-23 -TD
+
+20180714
+	+ add enum, regex examples to test/demo_forms
+	+ add configure check for pcre-posix library to help with MinGW port.
+
 20180707
 	+ build-fixes for gcc8.
 	+ correct order of WINDOW._ttytype versus WINDOW._windowlist in
