+
+New MARC decode API. All new functions operate on a yaz_marc_t
+handle. The most important new functions are: yaz_marc_create,
+yaz_marc_decode_{buf,wrbuf}, yaz_marc_destroy, .. to create handler,
+decode and destroy respectively. Decoder can produce formats
+MARC line, simple XML, OAI MARC and MARC XML (LoC). See
+include/yaz/marcdisp.h.
+
+YAZ Iconv utility now supports MARC8 decoding (marc8.c). Converts
+to UTF-8, UCS-32, wchar_t or Latin-1.
+
+* Prototypes for yaz_iconv_-functions moved to separate header 
+include/yaz/yaz-iconv.h.
+
+Make a few private functions 'static' in unix.c. This prevents
+duplicate unix_close in PHP with YAZ and imap. PHP Bug 20977.
+
+For ZOOM connection, the options targetImplementation{Id,Name,Version}
+are set when Init Response is received.
+
+New function ZOOM_connection_error_x similar to ZOOM_connection_error
+but returns diagnostic set as well.
+
 New function yaz_strerror which is a portable wrapper for
 strerror/strerror_r/GetLastMessage.

+* ZOOM_record_get supports type "xml" in which case MARC XML (from LOC)
