<A NAME="highlights"><B><FONT SIZE="+3">M</FONT>AJOR CHANGES:</B></A>

<UL>

  <LI>Optional support for using libdeflate is added.</LI>

  <LI>Many of the tools now support a memory usage limit.</LI>

</UL>

<!-- ============================================================= -->

<A NAME="configure"><B><FONT SIZE="+3">C</FONT>HANGES IN THE SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION:</B></A>

<UL>

  <LI>The Microsoft Windows 'nmake' build is resuscitated and provides
  a default HAVE_STRTOLL setting in 'nmake.opt' which is suitable for
  MSVC++ 14.0 ("Visual Studio 2015") and later but may be disabled in
    order to compile with earlier compiler versions.</LI>

  <LI>mingw-w64 cmake build fixes to not add libm</LI>

</UL>

<!-- ============================================================= -->

<A NAME="libtiff"><B><FONT SIZE="+3">C</FONT>HANGES IN LIBTIFF:</B></A>

<UL>

  <LI>A great many issues discovered by fuzzers (via oss-fuzz and other reports) have been addressed.</LI>

  <LI>EXIF 2.32 and GPS tags and functionality have been upgraded:
    <UL>
      <LI>Existing EXIF field definition of tags are upgraded to EXIF version 2.3.2</LI>
      <LI>EXIF-GPS structure, tags and access functions are added as special CustomDirectory (like it was done for EXIF).</LI>
      <LI>Reading error for FileSource and SceneType tags corrected.</LI>
    </UL>

  <LI>Make TIFFTAG_CFAPATTERN variable count.</LI>

  <LI>Cmake configuration fixes for big-endian targets.</LI>

  <LI><P>Added support for optional building against libdeflate for
    faster Zip/Deflate compression/decompression.</P>

    <P>We now have 2 kinds of builds with the Zip/Deflate codec:</P>
    <UL>
      <LI>zlib only</LI>
      <LI>zlib + libdeflate</LI>
    </UL>

    <P>Speed improvements in the 35%-50% range can be expected when libdeflate is used.
      Compression level up to 12 is now supported (capped to 9 when zlib is used).
      Still requires zlib for situations where libdeflate cannot be used (that
      is for scanline access, since libdeflate has no streaming mode)</P>

    <P>Pseudo-tag TIFFTAG_DEFLATE_SUBCODEC=DEFLATE_SUBCODEC_ZLIB/DEFLATE_SUBCODEC_LIBDEFLATE
      is added to control which subcodec (zlib or libdeflate) should be used (it defaults
      of course to libdeflate, when it is available).
      This is mostly aimed at being used on the writing side, to be able to reproduce
      output of previous libtiff versions at a binary level, in situations where this would
      be really needed. Or as a safety belt in case there would be unforeseen issues
      with using libdeflate.
      It can be used to know when libdeflate is available at runtime (DEFLATE_SUBCODEC_LIBDEFLATE
      will be the default value in that situation).</P>
    <P>Of course, deflate codestreams produced by libdeflate can be read by zlib, and vice-versa.</P>
