-We are proud to announce a new stable GnuTLS release: Version 2.8.0.
-
-GnuTLS is a modern C library that implements the standard network
-security protocol Transport Layer Security (TLS), for use by network
-applications.  GnuTLS is developed for GNU/Linux, but works on many
-Unix-like systems and comes with a binary installer for Windows.
-
-The GnuTLS library is distributed under the terms of the GNU Lesser
-General Public License version 2.1 (or later).  The "extra" GnuTLS
-library (which contains TLS/IA support, LZO compression and Libgcrypt
-FIPS-mode handler), the OpenSSL compatibility library, the self tests
-and the command line tools are all distributed under the GNU General
-Public License version 3.0 (or later).  The manual is distributed
-under the GNU Free Documentation License version 1.3 (or later).
-
-The project page of the library is available at:
-  http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/
-
-What's New
-==========
-
-Version 2.8.0 is the first stable release on the 2.8.x branch and is
-the result of 7 months of work on the experimental 2.7.x branch.
-
-** lib: Linker version scripts reduces number of exported symbols.
-The linker version script now lists all exported ABIs explicitly, to
-avoid accidentally exporting unintended functions.  Compared to
-before, most symbols beginning with _gnutls* are no longer exported.
-These functions have never been intended for use by applications, and
-there were no prototypes for these function in the public header
-files.  Thus we believe it is possible to do this without incrementing
-the library ABI version which normally has to be done when removing an
-interface.
-
-** lib: Limit exported symbols on systems without LD linker scripts.
-Before all symbols were exported.  Now we limit the exported symbols
-to (for libgnutls and libgnutls-extra) gnutls* and (for libgnutls)
-_gnutls*.  This is a superset of the actual supported ABI, but still
-an improvement compared to before.  This is implemented using Libtool
--export-symbols-regex.  It is more portable than linker version
-scripts.
-
-** libgnutls: Fix namespace issue with version symbols.
-The symbols LIBGNUTLS_VERSION, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
-LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
-LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER were renamed to GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER,
-GNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
-GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER respectively.  The old symbols will continue to
-work but are deprecated.
-
-** libgnutls: Fix namespace issue with version symbol for libgnutls-extra.
-The symbol LIBGNUTLS_EXTRA_VERSION were renamed to
-GNUTLS_EXTRA_VERSION.  The old symbol will continue to work but is
-deprecated.
-
-** libgnutls: Add functions to verify a hash against a certificate.
-gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm: ADDED
-
-** gnutls-serv: Listen on all interfaces, including both IPv4 and IPv6.
-
-** i18n: The GnuTLS gettext domain is now 'libgnutls' instead of 'gnutls'.
-It is currently only used by the core library.  This will enable a new
-domain 'gnutls' for translations of the command line tools.
-
-** certtool: Query for multiple dnsName subjectAltName in interactive mode.
-This applies both to generating certificates and certificate requests.
-
-** gnutls-cli: No longer accepts V1 CAs by default during X.509 chain verify.
-Use --priority NORMAL:%VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT to permit V1 CAs to
-be used for chain verification.
-
-** gnutls-serv: No longer disable MAC padding by default.
-Use --priority NORMAL:%COMPAT to disable MAC padding again.
-
-** gnutls-cli: Certificate information output format changed.
-The tool now uses libgnutls' functions to print certificate
-information.  This avoids code duplication.
-
-** libgnutls: New priority strings %VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
-** and %VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT.
-They can be used to override the default certificate chain validation
-behaviour.
-
-** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_print prints signature algorithm in oneline mode.
-
-** libgnutls: gnutls_openpgp_crt_print supports oneline mode.
-
-** libgnutls: gnutls_handshake when sending client hello during a
-rehandshake, will not offer a version number larger than the current.
-
-** libgnutls: New interface to get key id for certificate requests.
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id: ADDED.
-
-** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crq_print will now also print public key id.
-
-** certtool: --verify-chain now prints results of using library verification.
-Earlier, certtool --verify-chain used its own validation algorithm
-which wasn't guaranteed to give the same result as the libgnutls
-internal validation algorithm.  Now this command print a new final
-line with header 'Chain verification output:' that contains the result
-from using the internal verification algorithm on the same chain.
-
-** libgnutls: Libgcrypt initialization changed.
-If libgcrypt has not already been initialized, GnuTLS will now
-initialize libgcrypt with disabled secure memory.  Initialize
-libgcrypt explicitly in your application if you want to enable secure
-memory.  Before GnuTLS initialized libgcrypt to use GnuTLS's memory
-allocation functions, which doesn't use secure memory, so there is no
-real change in behaviour.
-
-** libgnutls: Small byte reads via gnutls_record_recv() optimized.
-
-** gnutls-cli: Return non-zero exit code on error conditions.
-
-** gnutls-cli: Corrected bug which caused a rehandshake request to be ignored.
-
-** certtool: allow setting arbitrary key purpose object identifiers.
-
-** libgnutls: Change detection of when to use a linker version script.
-Use --enable-ld-version-script or --disable-ld-version-script to
-override auto-detection logic.
-
-** Fix warnings and build GnuTLS with more warnings enabled.
-
-** New API to set X.509 credentials from PKCS#12 memory structure.
-gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_mem: ADDED
-
-** Old libgnutls.m4 and libgnutls-config scripts removed.
-Please use pkg-config instead.
-
-** libgnutls: Added functions to handle CRL extensions.
-gnutls_x509_crl_get_authority_key_id: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crl_get_number: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crl_get_extension_oid: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crl_get_extension_info: ADDED

-gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_purpose_oid: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_print: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crt_set_crq_extensions: ADDED
-
-** certtool: Print and set CRL and CRQ extensions.
-
-** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v2.1.
-GnuTLS should work fine with libtasn1 v1.x and that is still
-supported.
-
-** examples: Now released into the public domain.
-This makes the license of the example code compatible with more
-licenses, including the (L)GPL.
-
-** The Texinfo and GTK-DOC manuals were improved.
-
-** Several self-tests were added and others improved.
-
-API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.8
-=============================
-
-No offically supported interfaces have been modified or removed.  The
-library should be completely backwards compatible on both the source
-and binary level.
-
-The shared library no longer exports some symbols that have never been
-officially supported, i.e., not mentioned in any of the header files.
-The symbols are:
-
-  _gnutls*
-  gnutls_asn1_tab
-  
-Normally when symbols are removed, the shared library version has to
-be incremented.  This leads to a significant cost for everyone using
-the library.  Because none of the above symbols have ever been
-intended for use by well-behaved applications, we decided that the it
-would be better for those applications to pay the price rather than
-incurring problems on the majority of applications.
-
-If it turns out that applications have been using unofficial
-interfaces, we will need to release a follow-on release on the v2.8
-branch to exports additional interfaces.  However, initial testing
-suggests that few if any applications have been using any of the
-internal symbols.
-
-Although not a new change compared to 2.6.x, we'd like to remind you
-interfaces have been modified so that X.509 chain verification now
-also checks activation/expiration times on certificates.  The affected
-functions are:
-
-gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: CHANGED, checks activation/expiration times.
-gnutls_certificate_verify_peers: Likewise.
-gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2: Likewise.
-GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED: ADDED.
-GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED: ADDED.
-GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS: ADDED.
-
-This change in behaviour was made during the GnuTLS 2.6.x cycle, and
-we gave our rationale for it in earlier release notes.
-
-The following symbols have been added to the library:
-
-gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_mem: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crl_get_authority_key_id: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crl_get_extension_data: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crl_get_extension_info: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crl_get_extension_oid: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crl_get_number: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crl_set_authority_key_id: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crl_set_number: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_attribute_data: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_attribute_info: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_basic_constraints: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_extension_by_oid: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_extension_data: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_extension_info: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id: ADDED.
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_purpose_oid: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_rsa_raw: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_usage: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_subject_alt_name: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_get_subject_alt_othername_oid: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_print: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_set_basic_constraints: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_purpose_oid: ADDED

-gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crt_set_crq_extensions: ADDED
-gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash: ADDED
-
-The following interfaces have been added to the header files:
-
-GNUTLS_VERSION: ADDED, replaces LIBGNUTLS_VERSION.
-GNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR: ADDED, replaces LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR.
-GNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR: ADDED, replaces LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR.

-
-Getting the Software
-====================
-
-GnuTLS may be downloaded from one of the mirror sites or direct from
-<ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnutls/>.  The list of mirrors can be found at
-<http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/download.html>.
-
-Here are the BZIP2 compressed sources (6.0MB):
-
-  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnutls/gnutls-2.8.0.tar.bz2
-  http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnutls/gnutls-2.8.0.tar.bz2
-
-Here are OpenPGP detached signatures signed using key 0xB565716F:
-
-  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnutls/gnutls-2.8.0.tar.bz2.sig
-  http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnutls/gnutls-2.8.0.tar.bz2.sig
-
-Note, that we don't distribute gzip compressed tarballs.
-
-In order to check that the version of GnuTLS which you are going to
-install is an original and unmodified one, you should verify the OpenPGP
-signature.  You can use the command
-
-     gpg --verify gnutls-2.8.0.tar.bz2.sig
-
-This checks whether the signature file matches the source file.  You
-should see a message indicating that the signature is good and made by
-that signing key.  Make sure that you have the right key, either by
-checking the fingerprint of that key with other sources or by checking
-that the key has been signed by a trustworthy other key.  The signing
-key can be identified with the following information:
-
-pub   1280R/B565716F 2002-05-05 [expires: 2010-04-21]
-      Key fingerprint = 0424 D4EE 81A0 E3D1 19C6  F835 EDA2 1E94 B565 716F
-uid                  Simon Josefsson <address@hidden>
-uid                  Simon Josefsson <address@hidden>
-sub   1280R/4D5D40AE 2002-05-05 [expires: 2010-04-21]
-
-The key is available from:
-  http://josefsson.org/key.txt
-  dns:b565716f.josefsson.org?TYPE=CERT
-
-Alternatively, after successfully verifying the OpenPGP signature of
-this announcement, you could verify that the files match the following
-checksum values.  The values are for SHA-1 and SHA-224 respectively:
-
-d1693e611aa7270f14bc500bd56ef529ffcb1703  gnutls-2.8.0.tar.bz2

-Support
-=======
-
-Improving GnuTLS is costly, but you can help!  We are looking for
-organizations that find GnuTLS useful and wish to contribute back.  You
-can contribute by reporting bugs, improve the software, or donate money
-or equipment.
-
-Commercial support contracts for GnuTLS are available, and they help
-finance continued maintenance.  Simon Josefsson Datakonsult AB, a
-Stockholm based privately held company, is currently funding GnuTLS
-maintenance.  We are always looking for interesting development
-projects.  See http://josefsson.org/ for more details.
