 # ChangeLog file for clients
 # This file is updated with Maddlog
 
+* Wed Aug 11 2021 Sjoerd Mullender <sjo...@acm.org>
+- A new output formatting mode was added to mclient.  Use -fcsv-noquote
+  to produce a CSV (comma-separated values) output where the quote
+  characters have not been escapes.  This can be useful when producing
+  a single column string output that should be saved as is, e.g. when
+  using the sys.dump_database() function.

 # ChangeLog file for GDK
 # This file is updated with Maddlog
 
+* Wed Aug 11 2021 Sjoerd Mullender <sjo...@acm.org>
+- Many (most) low level functions that could take a long time (such as
+  BATjoin) can now be aborted with a timeout.  When the function takes too
+  long, the function will fail, and hence the whole SQL query will fail.
+- At some point in the past, string heaps were created where the
+  hash value of the string was stored in the heap before the string.
+  This hasn't been used in a long time.  Now the code that could still
+  read those old heaps has been removed.  Bats that used the old format
+  are converted automatically.
+
 * Mon Aug  2 2021 Sjoerd Mullender <sjo...@acm.org>
 - Some small interface changes to the atom functions: the atomPut function
   now returns (var_t) -1 on error instead of 0; the atomHeap function

+- Reliance on the OpenSSL library has been removed.  OpenSSL was used
+  for the hash algorithms it contained (e.g. SHA512 and RIPEMD160) and
+  for producing random numbers.  The hash functions have been replaced
+  by the original published functions, and random numbers are generated
+  using system-specific random sources (i.e. not simply pseudo-random
+  number generators).

 # ChangeLog file for sql

+* Wed Aug 11 2021 Sjoerd Mullender <sjo...@acm.org>
+- The built-in SQL functions to produce a dump that were added as a
+  proof-of-concept in the previous release have been improved and are
+  now usable.  Use the query ``SELECT stmt FROM sys.dump_database(FALSE)
+  ORDER BY o'' to produce a dump.  The dump code built into mclient and
+  msqldump is probably still more efficient, though.

 * Thu Jun  3 2021 Sjoerd Mullender <sjo...@acm.org>
 - The sys.epoch function has always been confusing.  There are two
   versions, one with an INTEGER argument, and one with a BIGINT
