+--- 1.8.3 2001/11/19
+
+YAZ client enables setnames only if target supports it.
+
+*** ZOOM. Prefix for ZOOM definitions changed from Z3950_ to ZOOM_.
+
+* ZOOM. Removed Z3950_connection_host. Use Z3950_connection_option_get
+with key="host" to get same result.
+
+* ZOOM. Added Z3950_record_clone and removed Z3950_resultset_get.
+Function Z3950_resultset_record(s) returns references to records
+"owned" by resultset. To become owner use Z3950_record_clone.
+
+Function z_ext_record handles Extended Services. Thanks to
+Irina Dijour.
+
+--- 1.8.2 2001/11/12
+
+CCL Parser fix: ignore token comma when dealing with and-lists.
+
+Documentation updates for COMSTACK.
+
+* ZOOM changes. Query object renamed from Z3950_search to Z3950_query.
+Changed prototype Z3950_records. For some functions, int parameters
+were changed to size_t.
+
+TCP/IP COMSTACK no longer uses getprotobyname to avoid memory leak
+on some Unices.
+
+New MARC decode/display function, marc_display_exl, which properly rejects
+non-ISO2709 records. YAZ client uses it.
+
+--- 1.8.1 2001/10/29
+
+Fix bug: local attribute set wasn't set correctly in PQF strings.
+
+--- 1.8 2001/10/25
+
+* Old Z39.50 codecs no longer supported.
+
+Added ZOOM C binding. See http://zoom.z3950.org/
+
+Renamed states for COMSTACKs to avoid confusion with events.
+
+Implemented cs_look and proper cs_rcvconnect.
+
+Fixed COMSTACK error that occurred on HPUX. Fix by Giannis Kosmas.
+
+Configure detects POSIX threads on OpenBSD.
+
+When sort flag 'i' was specified in yaz-client the caseSensitivy flag
+was set to a wrong value. Thanks to Robert Sanderson for reporting this.
+
+When error is returned from present handler, non-surrogate diagnostic
+is returned in present response (and fetch handler is no longer called).
+
+* Minor adjustments to pquery parser (PQF). Token characters may be
+escaped by using backslash (C-style).
+
+PQF parser allows string attribute values to be specified. For @attr,
+non-numeric characters after the equal-sign are treated as strings
+(e.g. @attr 9=title).
+
+CCL trunction character may be defined (@truncation in file)
+
+* function zget_ExtendedServicesRequest sets waitAction to
+ waitIfPossible (was wait).
+
+Added cs_set_blocking to set change blocking mode of a COMSTACK. Thanks
+to Matthew Carey.
+
+CCL operator names may be set in field definition files (CCL_bibset).
+See ccl/bib1 for an example.
+
+Fixes in ASN.1 compiler for C++ compatibility.
+
+* Renamed members "and" and "or" in struct Z_Operator to "op_and"
+and "op_or" to avoid conflict with C++.
+
+Fixed problem with GNU readline detection on Redhat 7.0.
+
+Added step-size for Scan backend handler.
+
+Fixed bug that made the frontend server crash when no attribute
+set was specified for scan.
+
Front-end server automatically switches to original working directory
when installed as an NT service. Previously -w had to be specified to
make it work.
