GNU Libtasn1 is a standalone library written in C for manipulating ASN.1
objects including DER/BER encoding/decoding.  GNU Libtasn1 is used by
GnuTLS to handle X.509 structures and by GNU Shishi to handle Kerberos
V5 structures.

* Noteworthy changes in release 2.9 (2010-12-06) [stable]
- tests: Link to gnulib to avoid build error related to 'rpl_ftello' on Solaris.
  Reported by Dagobert Michelsen.
- doc: Fix bug reporting address to point at help-libtasn1@gnu.org.
- doc: Fix Returns: documentation in Texinfo.  Reported by Jeffrey Walton.
- build: Update gnulib files.

Commercial support contracts for Libtasn1 are available, and they help
finance continued maintenance.  Simon Josefsson Datakonsult AB, a
Stockholm based privately held company, is currently funding Libtasn1
maintenance.  We are always looking for interesting development
projects.  See http://josefsson.org/ for more details.

For developers interested in improving code quality, we publish
Cyclomatic code complexity charts that help you find code that may
need review and improvements:
  http://www.gnu.org/software/libtasn1/cyclo/

Also useful are code coverage charts which indicate parts of the
source code that needs to be tested better by the included self-tests:
