I have rewritten the 'openssl ca -create_serial' entry (0.9.8) so that it explains the earlier change that is now listed (0.9.7e). The ENGINE_set_default typo bug entry has been moved from 0.9.8 to 0.9.7b, which is where it belongs. --- diff --git a/CHANGES b/CHANGES index 768d010507..700063db87 100644 --- a/CHANGES +++ b/CHANGES @@ -2,20 +2,22 @@ OpenSSL CHANGES _______________ - Changes between 0.9.7c and 0.9.8 [xx XXX xxxx] + Changes between 0.9.7e and 0.9.8 [xx XXX xxxx] *) The new 'RSA_generate_key_ex' function now takes a BIGNUM for the public exponent rather than 'unsigned long'.
