File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: 1.0.2

Notes: Allright, this release fixes a potential buffer overflow reported on BugTraq. Also I've really improved portability, this release should build and compile cleanly on more systems than the previous releases. Those using previous versions should upgrade to this one to avoid potential security problems.
