-This is a modified version of NASM, modified and released by H. Peter
-Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>; it is not the original form released by the
-NASM authors. However, as of 0.98p6 I have agreed to release the
-official 0.98 version, so this is now an "official pre-release".
+This file details changes since NASM 0.98p3. All the releases in this
+file have been produced by H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>.
+
+For release 0.98:
+* The documentation comment delimiter is \# not #.
+* Allow EQU definitions to refer to external labels; reported by
+ Pedro Gimeno.
+* Re-enable support for RDOFF v1; reported by Pedro Gimeno.
+* Updated License file per OK from Simon and Julian.
+
+For release 0.98p9:
+* Update documentation (although the instruction set reference will
+ have to wait; I don't want to hold up the 0.98 release for it.)
+* Verified that the NASM implementation of the PEXTRW and PMOVMSKB
+ instructions is correct. The encoding differs from what the Intel
+ manuals document, but the Pentium III behaviour matches NASM, not
+ the Intel manuals.
+* Fix handling of implicit sizes in PSHUFW and PINSRW, reported by
+ Stefan Hoffmeister.
+* Resurrect the -s option, which was removed when changing the
+ diagnostic output to stdout.
+
+For release 0.98p8:
+* Fix for "DB" when NASM is running on a bigendian machine.
+* Invoke insns.pl once for each output script, making Makefile.in
+ legal for "make -j".
+* Improve the Unix configure-based makefiles to make package
+ creation easier.
+* Included an RPM .spec file for building RPM (RedHat Package Manager)
+ packages on Linux or Unix systems.
+* Fix Makefile dependency problems.
+* Change src/rdsrc.pl to include sectioning information in info
+ output; required for install-info to work.
+* Updated the RDOFF distribution to version 2 from Jules; minor
+ massaging to make it compile in my environment.
+* Split doc files that can be built by anyone with a Perl interpreter off
+ into a separate archive.
+* "Dress rehearsal" release!
For release 0.98p7:
