+strongswan-4.0.4
+----------------
+
+- Implemented full support for IPv6-in-IPv6 tunnels.
+
+- Added configuration options for dead peer detection in IKEv2. dpd_action
+  types "clear", "hold" and "restart" are supported. The dpd_timeout
+  value is not used, as the normal retransmission policy applies to
+  detect dead peers. The dpd_delay parameter enables sending of empty
+  informational message to detect dead peers in case of inactivity.
+
+- Added support for preshared keys in IKEv2. PSK keys configured in
+  ipsec.secrets are loaded. The authby parameter specifies the authentication
+  method to authentificate ourself, the other peer may use PSK or RSA.
+
+- Changed retransmission policy to respect the keyingtries parameter.
+
+- Added private key decryption. PEM keys encrypted with AES-128/192/256
+  or 3DES are supported.
+
+- Implemented DES/3DES algorithms in libstrongswan. 3DES can be used to
+  encrypt IKE traffic.
+
+- Implemented SHA-256/384/512 in libstrongswan, allows usage of certificates
+  signed with such a hash algorithm.
+
+- Added initial support for updown scripts. The actions up-host/client and
+  down-host/client are executed. The leftfirewall=yes parameter
+  uses the default updown script to insert dynamic firewall rules, a custom
+  updown script may be specified with the leftupdown parameter.
+
+
+strongswan-4.0.3
+----------------
+
+- Added support for the auto=route ipsec.conf parameter and the
+  ipsec route/unroute commands for IKEv2. This allows to set up IKE_SAs and 
+  CHILD_SAs dynamically on demand when traffic is detected by the 
+  kernel.
+
+- Added support for rekeying IKE_SAs in IKEv2 using the ikelifetime parameter.
+  As specified in IKEv2, no reauthentication is done (unlike in IKEv1), only
+  new keys are generated using perfect forward secrecy. An optional flag
+  which enforces reauthentication will be implemented later.
+
+- "sha" and "sha1" are now treated as synonyms in the ike= and esp=
+  algorithm configuration statements.
+
+
 strongswan-4.0.2
 ----------------
 
+- Full X.509 certificate trust chain verification has been implemented.
+  End entity certificates can be exchanged via CERT payloads. The current
+  default is leftsendcert=always, since CERTREQ payloads are not supported
+  yet. Optional CRLs must be imported locally into /etc/ipsec.d/crls.
+
+- Added support for leftprotoport/rightprotoport parameters in IKEv2. IKEv2 
+  would offer more possibilities for traffic selection, but the Linux kernel
+  currently does not support it. That's why we stick with these simple 
+  ipsec.conf rules for now.
+
+- Added Dead Peer Detection (DPD) which checks liveliness of remote peer if no
+  IKE or ESP traffic is received. DPD is currently hardcoded (dpdaction=clear,
+  dpddelay=60s).
+
+- Initial NAT traversal support in IKEv2. Charon includes NAT detection
+  notify payloads to detect NAT routers between the peers. It switches
+  to port 4500, uses UDP encapsulated ESP packets, handles peer address
+  changes gracefully and sends keep alive message periodically.
+
+- Reimplemented IKE_SA state machine for charon, which allows simultaneous 
+  rekeying, more shared code, cleaner design, proper retransmission 
+  and a more extensible code base.
