+      * src/gdcm.h, gdcmHeader.cxx:
+        - historic references to glib's g_malloc and g_free (#defined)
+          were definitively removed.
+        - gdcm.h: cosmetic changes (part of comments moved to Doc/requirements)
+      * src/gdcmElValSet.cxx:
+        - GetElement(guint32, guint32) renamed to GetElementByNumber.
+        - GetElValue(guint32, guint32) renamed to GetElValueByNumber.
+        - GetElValue(string) renamed to GetElValueByName.
+        - Added GetElementByName(string).
+      * src/gdcmHeader.cxx: added
+        - GetPubElValRepByNumber(guint16, guint16)
+        - GetPubElValRepByName(string)
+        - GetShaElValRepByNumber(guint16, guint16)
+        - GetShaElValRepByName(string)
+        - GetShaElValByNumber(guint16, guint16)
+        - GetShaElValRepByName(string)
+        - GetElValRepByNumber(guint16, guint16)
+        - GetElValRepByName(string)
+        - GetElValByNumber(guint16, guint16)
+        - GetElValRepByName(string)
+      * Doc/requirements.txt added.

+      * Test/Makefile building now depends on the one of libgdcm.so
+      * src/gdcmHeader.cxx and gdcm.h are now OB (undefined length encoded
+        pixel data) aware which enables finding the address (offset) of 
+        the pixel data of JPEG encoded DICOM files. This leaves only a single
+        file in the testSuite whose pixel data address (offset) is unknown.
+      * python/testSuite.py changed accordingly.

+      * VC++ has some strong limitations when working with the STL, as stated
+        in http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q168/9/58.ASP :
+             "Also note that some STL containers (map, set, queue, list, deque)
+              cannot be exported. [...]
+              Some STL classes contain nested classes. These classes can not
+              be exported. [...]
+              This is caused by a designed limitation that once a template
+              class is instantiated, it can not be re-instantiated and
+              exported."
+        Since our usage of map<> is ubiquitous in gdcm, this "designed
+        limitation" of VC++ is a pitfall.
+        Hence the Python wrappers of gdcm cannot be incrementally linked 
+        against the c++ dynamic library. The dirty but only workaround is
+        to forget about incremental link of dynamic libraries and to generate
+        the Python wrappers library with the inclusions of the underlying C++
+        library. 
+        The following modifications concern this matter on Win32/VC++:
+      - wrapping python correct with standalone wrapped dll (don't use separate
+         dll under windows !!!!)
+      - python21_d debug mode enabled (ask Frog how to use it :-)
+      - NO problem with having an STL member of class for example string in C++
+        WITH THE RESTRICTION OF FORGETING ABOUT INCREMENTAL LINK.
+      - Python test of dcmlib in Python is ok under windows on a large set 
+        (one) of image(s).
+      * removed glib references
+      * typedef's inserted in gdcm.i for correct swig type management

       * python/demo/*.py load.py extracted from test.py. Added explore.py
         that only displays required tags and testAll.py that parses all
