+RELEASE 1.6.0
+-------------
+(2005-04-04)
+
+General
+-------
+
+* Added makefile targets to build static link versions of the library.
+Both MinGW and MSVC. Please note that this does not imply any change
+to the LGPL licensing, which still imposes specific conditions on
+distributing software that has been statically linked with this library.
+
+Bugs fixed
+----------
+
+* Fix integer overrun error in sem_timedwait().
+Kevin Lussier

RELEASE 1.4.0
-------------
-(2005-03-16)
-
-General
--------
-
-Version 2.0.0 is being released and version 1.4.0 back-ports the
-functionality included in that release. In future, bug fixes
-will be back-ported if possible and where appropriate, however,
-this will be at the maintainer's descretion. New features will
-not generally be back-ported, although some may if they
-provide major improvements in compatibility with the standard.
-
-This is intended as a courtesy to application developers, but as
-time moves on, the imperative will fade.
-
-The package naming has changed, replacing the snapshot date with
-the version number + descriptive information. E.g. this
-release is "pthreads-w32-1-4-0-release".
-
-Bugs fixed
-----------
-
-* pthread_setcancelstate() no longer checks for a pending
-async cancel event if the library is using alertable async
-cancel. See the README file (Prerequisites section) for info
-on adding alertable async cancelation.
