Version 1.11.21, Not Yet Released
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+* Add new methods for creating types such as BlockCiphers or HashFunctions,
+ T::providers() returning list of provider for a type, and T::create() creating
+ a new object of a specified provider. The functions in lookup.h forward to
+ these new APIs. A change to the lookup system in 1.11.14 had caused problems
+ with static libraries (GH #52). These problems have been fixed as part of these
+ changes. GH #279
+
+* Fix loading McEliece public or private keys with PKCS::load_key / X509::load_key
+
+* Add `mce` command line tool for McEliece key generation and file encryption
+
+* Add Darwin_SecRandom entropy source which uses `SecRandomCopyBytes`
+ API call for OS X and iOS, as this call is accessible even from a
+ sandboxed application. GH #288
+
+* Add new HMAC_DRBG constructor taking a name for the MAC to use, rather
+ than a pointer to an object.
+
* The OCaml module is now a separate project at
