libmodbus 2.9.5 (2011-06-XX)
============================

- Revert libmodbus licence from LGPLv3 to LGPLv2.1 to avoid
  incompatibility with GPLv2 program. This change has been approved
  by Tobias Doerffel, Florian octo Forster and Hannu Vuolasaho.

- API change for read/write multiple registers function:
    * modbus_read_and_write_registers -> modbus_write_and_read_registers
  The function name was confusing because the write operation is performed
  before the read. Take care to swap the arguments in the migration process.
- Documentation of modbus_write_and_read_registers, modbus_mapping_new/free,
  report_slave_id. modbus_get_byte_from_bits, modbus_set_bits_from_byte(s),
