+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.
+
+- The mixed PSK/RSA roadwarrior detection capability introduced by the
+  strongswan-2.7.0 release necessitated the pre-parsing of the IKE proposal
+  payloads by the responder right before any defined IKE Main Mode state had
+  been established. Although any form of bad proposal syntax was being correctly
+  detected by the payload parser, the subsequent error handler didn't check
+  the state pointer before logging current state information, causing an
+  immediate crash of the pluto keying daemon due to a NULL pointer.
