  42         <LI> Corrected alpha versioning.
  43
  44         <LI> Removed distinction between  alpha and release targets in Makefile.in.
  45
  46         <LI> Added release.stamp target, which tags cvs tree, and updates
  47           "RELEASE-DATE"
  48
  49         <LI> Added releasediff target, which diffs tree with source as of
  50           date in "RELEASE-DATE"
  51
  52         <LI>Ticked up version to 3.5.2 (alpha 01 -- but I think we'll moving
  53           away from alpha/non-alpha distinctions).

  62 <UL>
  63         <LI> Added IRIX/gcc, and OSF/1 4.x support on behalf of
  64         Albert Chin-A-Young <china@thewrittenword.com>
  65
  66         <LI> Added TIFFReassignTagToIgnore() API on behalf of
  67         Bruce Cameron <cameron@petris.com>.  Man page still pending.
  68
  69         <LI> pre-remove so link before softlink in LINUXdso action in
  70         libtiff/Makefile.in to avoid failure on LINUXdso builds other than
  71         the first.
  72
  73         <LI> Fixed problem with cvtcmap() in tif_getimage.c modifying the
  74         colormaps owned by the TIFF handle itself when trying to fixup wrong
  75         (eight bit) colormaps.  Corrected by maintaining a private copy of
  76         the colormap.
  77
  78         <LI> Added TIFFReadRGBATile()/TIFFReadRGBAStrip() support in
  79         tif_getimage.c.
  80
  81         <LI> Applied "a" mode fix to tif_win32.c/TIFFOpen() as suggested
  82         by Christopher Lawton <clawton@mathworks.com>
  83
  84         <LI> Set O_BINARY for tif_unix.c open() ... used on cygwin for instance.
  85
  86         <LI> Added CYGWIN case in configure.
  87
  88         <LI> Applied Francois Dagand's patch to handle fax decompression bug.
  89         (sizes >= 65536 were failing)

  95
  96 <UL>
  97         <LI> Added addtiffo (add overviews to a TIFF file) in contrib.  Didn't
  98             put it in tools since part of it is in C++.
