+This document describes the changes made to the software between the
+<I>previous</I> and <I>current</I> versions (see above).
+If you don't find something listed here, then it was not done in this
+timeframe, or it was not considered important enough to be mentioned.
+The following information is located here:
+<UL>
+<LI><A HREF="#configure">Changes in the software configuration</A>
+<LI><A HREF="#libtiff">Changes in libtiff</A>
+<LI><A HREF="#man">Changes in the manual pages</A>

+
+<A NAME="configure"><B><FONT SIZE=+3>C</FONT>HANGES IN THE SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION:</B></A>
+
+<UL>
+<LI><B>configure</B> now captures significantly more information
+ in the <B>config.log</B> file and provides more information when
+ it is unable to setup a configuration
+<LI>support was added for building shared libraries on more systems:
+ AIX, HPUX, Solaris, and Linux.
+<LI>a new configuration parameter <TT>LIBCOPTS</TT> was added for
+ passing arguments to the C compiler to use when building only
+ the library; this is part of the enhanced support for building
+ shared libraries
+<LI>include files for optional packages that reside in <B>/usr/include</B>
+ are now handled correctly
+<LI>build trees may now be configured using either relative or absolute
+ pathnames to the source distribution
+<LI>several new configuration parameters were added, mainly for building
+ shared libraries: <TT>DIST_MAJOR</TT>, <TT>DIST_MINOR</TT>,
+ <TT>DIST_ALPHA</TT>, and <TT>DSOSUF_VERSION</TT>
+</UL>
+
+<P><HR WIDTH=65% ALIGN=right>
+
+<A NAME="libtiff"><B><FONT SIZE=+3>C</FONT>HANGES IN LIBTIFF:</B></A>
+
+<UL>
+<LI>the Deflate support has been revised: it requires version 0.99 of
+ the zlib software distribution, <B>the output format has changed and
+ is incompatible with previous versions of this library</B> (each
+ strip now includes a header read and written by the zlib library)
+<LI>the codec name printed by the TIFFPrintDirectory routine is now
+ taken from the codec table instead of from a builtin table; this means
+ that application-defined codecs are handled correctly
+<LI>a new symbol was added that contains the library version number;
+ this can be used to do a compile-time compatibility check of the
+ library version
+</UL>
+
+<P><HR WIDTH=65% ALIGN=right>
+
+<A NAME="man"><B><FONT SIZE=+3>C</FONT>HANGES IN THE MANUAL PAGES:</B></A>
+
+<UL>
+<LI>the creation and installation of manual pages was redone; it now
+ implements the documented ``configuration scheme''
+</UL>
