+strongswan-4.1.3
+----------------
+
+- IKEv2 peer configuration selection now can be based on a given 
+  certification authority using the rightca= statement.
+
+- IKEv2 authentication based on RSA signatures now can handle multiple
+  certificates issued for a given peer ID. This allows a smooth transition
+  in the case of a peer certificate renewal.
+
+- IKEv2: Support for requesting a specific virtual IP using leftsourceip on the
+  client and returning requested virtual IPs using rightsourceip=%config
+  on the server. If the server does not support configuration payloads, the
+  client enforces its leftsourceip parameter.
+
+- The ./configure options --with-uid/--with-gid allow pluto and charon
+  to drop their privileges to a minimum and change to an other UID/GID. This
+  improves the systems security, as a possible intruder may only get the
+  CAP_NET_ADMIN capability.
+
+- Further modularization of charon: Pluggable control interface and 
+  configuration backend modules provide extensibility. The control interface
+  for stroke is included, and further interfaces using DBUS (NetworkManager)
+  or XML are on the way. A backend for storing configurations in the daemon
+  is provided and more advanced backends (using e.g. a database) are trivial 
+  to implement.
+
+ - Fixed a compilation failure in libfreeswan occuring with Linux kernel
+   headers > 2.6.17.
+
+
+strongswan-4.1.2
+----------------
+
+- Support for an additional Diffie-Hellman exchange when creating/rekeying
+  a CHILD_SA in IKEv2 (PFS). PFS is enabled when the proposal contains a
+  DH group (e.g. "esp=aes128-sha1-modp1536"). Further, DH group negotiation
+  is implemented properly for rekeying.
+
+- Support for the AES-XCBC-96 MAC algorithm for IPsec SAs when using IKEv2
+  (requires linux >= 2.6.20). It is enabled using e.g. "esp=aes256-aesxcbc".
+
+- Working IPv4-in-IPv6 and IPv6-in-IPv4 tunnels for linux >= 2.6.21.
+
+- Added support for EAP modules which do not establish an MSK.
+
+- Removed the dependencies from the /usr/include/linux/ headers by
+  including xfrm.h, ipsec.h, and pfkeyv2.h in the distribution.
+  
+- crlNumber is now listed by ipsec listcrls
+
+- The xauth_modules.verify_secret() function now passes the
+  connection name.
