=====================================================================

New in this release:

* Added a global configuration file (/etc/tmdarc) that is read first
  before ~/.tmdarc.  This allows the system administrator to provide a
  global configuration for all users.

* Add support for variable length HMACs.  This was done for
  flexibility in cases where the default HMAC size (24-bit) was not
  commensurate with the requirements of the local security policy.
  See `CRYPTO' for more details.

ChangeLogs follow:
