+* Changes in Emacs 25.3
+
+This is mainly a release to fix security-relevant bugs.
+
+** Enriched text mode no longer supports the 'FUNCTION' and 'display'
+translations, and Gnus no longer processes enriched text when
+inlining. This fixes bugs introduced in Emacs 19.29. To work around
+these bugs in Emacs versions 19.29 through 25.2, append the following
+to your ~/.emacs file:
+
+ (provide 'enriched)
+ (defun enriched-mode (&optional arg))
+ (defun enriched-decode (from to))
+
+Thanks to Charles A. Roelli for reporting this bug; see:
+https://bugs.gnu.org/28350
+
+** TLS/SSL connections no longer fall back on the openssl s_client
+command to set up SSL connections in some hopefully-unlikely cases.
+This fixes a bug introduced in Emacs 22.1. To work around this bug in
+Emacs versions 22.1 through 25.2, append the following to your
+~/.emacs file:
+
+ (setq tls-program '("gnutls-cli --x509cafile %t -p %p %h"))
+
+You may need to omit the "--x509cafile %t" on older installations.
