+
+<A NAME="libtiff"><B><FONT SIZE=+3>C</FONT>HANGES IN LIBTIFF:</B></A>
+
+<UL>
+	<li> tiffiop.h, tif_open.c: Added open option 'h' to avoid reading
+	the first IFD when needed. As per bug
+	<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=875">
+		http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=875</a>
+
+	<li> tiff.h: Use correct int size on Sparc 64bit/Sun compiler
+	platform. As per bug
+	<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=855">
+		http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=855</a>
+
+	<li> tif_dirinfo.c: Added support for ClipPath, XClipPathUnits
+	and YClipPathUnits tags.
+
+	<li> tif_dirinfo.c, tif_dir.h, tif_dir.c, tif_print.c: Make
+	DocumentName, Artist, HostComputer, ImageDescription, Make, Model,
+	Copyright, DateTime, PageName, TextureFormat, TextureWrapModes and
+	TargetPrinter tags custom.
+
+	<li> tif_jpeg.c: Cleanup the codec state depending on TIFF_CODERSETUP
+	flag (to fix memory leaks).
+
+	<li> tif_dirwrite.c: Use tdir_count when calling
+	TIFFCvtNativeToIEEEDouble() in the TIFFWriteDoubleArray() function as
+	per bug <a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=845">
+	http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=845</a>
+
+	<li> tif_dirinfo.c, tif_print.c: TIFFFetchByteArray() returns
+	uint16 array when fetching the BYTE and SBYTE fields, so we should
+	consider result as pointer to uint16 array and not as array of chars.
+	As per bug
+	<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=831">
+		http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=831</a>
+
+	<li> tif_dir.c: More efficient custom tags retrieval as per bug
+	<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=830">
+		http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=830</a>
+
+	<li> tif_win32.c: Use FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE share
+	mode in CreateFile() call as per bug
+	<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=829">
+	http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=829</a>
+
+	<li> tif_jpeg.c: Substantial fix for addtiffo problems with
+	JPEG encoded TIFF files.  Pre-allocate lots of space for jpegtables
+	in directory.
+
+	<li> tif_dirread.c: Changed the code that computes 
+	stripbytecount[0] if it appears bogus to ignore if stripoffset[0] is
+	zero. This is a common case with GDAL indicating a "null" tile/strip.
+
+	<li> tif_jpeg.c: added LIB_JPEG_MK1 support in JPEGDecodeRaw().
+
+	<li> tif_dirread.c: Ensure that broken files with too many
+	values in PerSampleShorts, TIFFFetchPerSampleLongs and
+	TIFFFetchPerSampleAnys work ok instead of crashing.
+	<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=843">
+	http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=843</a>
+
+	<li> tif_predict.h, tif_predict.c: Added ability to decode and encode
+	floating point predictor, as per TIFF Technical Note 3.
+	See http://chriscox.org/TIFF_TN3_Draft2.pdf for details.
+
+	<li> tiffio.h, tiffiop.h, tif_dir.c, tif_read.c, tif_swab.c:
+	Added _TIFFSwab24BitData() and TIFFSwabArrayOfLong() functions used to
+	swap 24-bit floating point values.
+
+	<li> tiff.h: Added predictor constants.
+
+	<li> tiffiop.h, tif_dir.c: Use uint32 type for appropriate values
+	in _TIFFVSetField() function. Inspired by the bug
+	<a href="http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=816">
+		http://bugzilla.remotesensing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=816</a>
+
+	<li> tif_open.c: Do not read header in case the output file should
+	be truncated (Ron).
+
+	<li> tif_dirinfo.c, tif_config.h.vc: Use lfind() instead of bsearch()
+	in _TIFFFindFieldInfoByName() function (Ron).
+
+	<li> tif_dir.c, tif_print.c: Properly handle all data types in custom
+	tags.
+
+	<li> dirinfo.c: Added DNG tags.
+
+	<li> tiff.h: Added missed DNG tag (LensInfo); added DNG 1.1.0.0 tags.
+
+	<li> tif_dir.c, tif_print.c: Added Support for custom tags, passed
