+2013.58 - Thursday 18 April 2013
+
+- Fix building with Zlib disabled, thanks to Hans Harder and cuma@freetz
+
+- Use % as a separator for ports, fixes scp in multihop mode, from Hans Harder
+
+- Reject logins for other users when running as non-root, from Hans Harder
+
+- Disable client immediate authentication request by default, it prevents
+  passwordless logins from working
+
+2013.57 - Monday 15 April 2013
+
+- Decreased connection setup time particularly with high latency connections,
+  the number of round trips has been reduced for both client and server. 
+  CPU time hasn't been changed.
+
+- Client will send an initial key exchange guess to save a round trip.
+  Dropbear implements an extension [email protected] to allow the first
+  packet guess to succeed in wider circumstances than the standard behaviour.
+  When communicating with other implementations the standard behaviour is used.
+
+- Client side: when public key or password authentication with
+  $DROPBEAR_PASSWORD is used an initial authentication request will
+  be sent immediately rather than querying the list of available methods.
+  This behaviour is enabled by CLI_IMMEDIATE_AUTH option (on by default),
+  please let the Dropbear author know if it causes any interoperability
+  problems.
+
+- Implement client escape characters ~. (terminate session) and 
+  ~^Z (background session)
+
+- Server will more reliably clean up utmp when connection is closed, reported by
+  Mattias Walström
+
+- Don't crash if /dev/urandom isn't writable (RHEL5), thanks to Scott Case
+
+- Add "-y -y" client option to skip host key checking, thanks to Hans Harder
+
+- scp didn't work properly on systems using vfork(), thanks to Frank Van Uffelen
+
+- Added IUTF8 terminal mode support (Linux and Mac OS). Not standardised yet
+though probably will be soon
+
+- Some verbose DROPBEAR_TRACE output is now hidden unless $DROPBEAR_TRACE2
+  enviroment variable is set
+
+- Fix using asymmetric MAC algorithms (broke in )
+
+- Renamed configure.in to configure.ac to quieten autoconf, from Mike Frysinger
