+Version 1.9.11, 2010-11-29
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* The TLS API has changed substantially and now relies heavily on
+  TR1's ``std::function`` is now required. Additionally, it is
+  required that all callers derive a subclass of TLS_Policy and pass
+  it to a client or server object. Please remember that the TLS
+  interface/API is currently unstable and will very likely change
+  further before TLS is included in a stable release. A handshake
+  failure that occured when RC4 was negotiated has also been fixed.
+
+* Some possible timing channels in the implementations of Montgomery
+  reduction and the IDEA key schedule were removed. The table-based
+  AES implementation uses smaller tables in the first round to help
+  make some timing/cache attacks harder.
+
+* The library now uses size_t instead of u32bit to represent
+  lengths. Also the interfaces for the memory containers have changed
+  substantially to better match STL container interfaces;
+  MemoryRegion::append, MemoryRegion::destroy, and MemoryRegion::set
+  were all removed, and several other functions, like clear and
+  resize, have changed meaning.
+
+* Update Skein-512 to match the v1.3 specification
+* Fix a number of CRL encoding and decoding bugs
+* Counter mode now always encrypts 256 blocks in parallel
+* Use small tables in the first round of AES
+* Removed AES class: app must choose AES-128, AES-192, or AES-256
+* Add hex encoding/decoding functions that can be used without a Pipe
+* Add base64 encoding functions that can be used without a Pipe
+* Add to_string function to X509_Certificate
+* Add support for dynamic engine loading on Windows
+* Replace BlockCipher::BLOCK_SIZE attribute with function block_size()
+* Replace HashFunction::HASH_BLOCK_SIZE attribute with hash_block_size()
+* Move PBKDF lookup to engine system
+* The IDEA key schedule has been changed to run in constant time
+* Add Algorithm and Key_Length_Specification classes
+* Switch default PKCS #8 encryption algorithm from AES-128 to AES-256
+* Allow using PBKDF2 with empty passphrases
+* Add compile-time deprecation warnings for GCC, Clang, and MSVC
+* Support use of HMAC(SHA-256) and CMAC(Blowfish) in passhash9
+* Improve support for Intel Atom processors
+* Fix compilation problems under Sun Studio and Clang
