-   (Reported by Jacek Caban; fixed by John Bowler)
- * Added eXIf chunk support to the push-mode reader in pngpread.c.
-   (Contributed by Chris Blume)
- * Added contrib/pngexif for the benefit of the users who would like
-   to inspect the content of eXIf chunks.
- * Added contrib/conftest/basic.dfa, a basic build-time configuration.
+ * Added support for the cICP chunk.
+   (Contributed by Lucas Chollet and John Bowler)

-   configurations like contrib/conftest/pngcp.dfa.

+   with the PNG v3 draft specification.

- * Added CMake build support for LoongArch LSX.
-   (Contributed by GuXiWei)
- * Fixed a CMake build error that occurred under a peculiar state of the

-   (Contributed by Benjamin Buch)

-   conventional make variables like AR and ARFLAGS.

-   consistency verification and text linting.
