    Some major changes and a time for new release: XMLSec 0.0.2. Now XMLSec supports all MUST/SHOULD/MAY features from XMLDSig standard!
    - Added X509 certificates and certificate chains support
    - The detailed signature generation/verification results are made available to the application (see example 3)
    - RetrievalMethod, Manifests and additional algorithms are added
    - The Transforms and KeyInfo code was significantly re-writen with a goal to separate it from XMLDSig logic for better re-usability (in XML Encryption, etc.)

    - Fixed wrong way shift of the DSA digest result bug found by Philipp Gühring. This bug is critical and I have to do a new build.
    - Added "--with-pedantic" configuration option and fixed all but "unused variable" warnings (bug reported by Daniel Veillard).
