+Overview of changes in 2.5.5
+============================
+
+User-visible Changes
+--------------------
+- SWEET32/64bit cipher deprecation change was postponed to 2.7
+
+- Windows: use network address for emulated DHCP server as default
+  this enables use of a /30 subnet, which is needed when connecting
+  to OpenVPN Cloud.
+
+- require EC support in windows builds
+  (this means it's no longer possible to build a Windows OpenVPN binary
+  with an OpenSSL lib without EC support)
+
+New features
+------------
+- Windows build: use CFG and Spectre mitigations on MSVC builds
+
+- bring back OpenSSL config loading to Windows builds.
+  OpenSSL config is loaded from %installdir%\SSL\openssl.cfg
+  (typically: c:\program files\openvpn\SSL\openssl.cfg) if it exists.
+
+  This is important for some hardware tokens which need special
+  OpenSSL config for correct operation.  Trac #1296
+

+
+- fix "resolvconf -p" invocation in example "up" script
