Version 1.11.7, Not Yet Released
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

* Botan's basic numeric types are now defined in terms of the
  C99/C++11 standard integer types. For instance `u32bit` is now a
  typedef for `uint32_t`, and both names are included in the library
  namespace. This should not result in any application-visible
  changes.

* There are now two executable outputs of the build, `botan-test`,
  which runs the tests, and `botan` which is used as a driver to call
  into various subcommands which can also act as examples of library
  use, much in the manner of the `openssl` command. It understands the
  commands `base64`, `asn1`, `x509`, `tls_client`, `tls_server`,
  `bcrypt`, `keygen`, `speed`, and various others. As part of this
  change many obsolete, duplicated, or one-off examples were removed,
  while others were extended with new functionality. Contributions of
  new subcommands, new bling for exising ones, or documentation in any
  form is welcome.

* Fix a bug in Lion, which was broken by a change in 1.11.0. The
  problem was not noticed before as Lion was also missing a test vector
  in previous releases.
