I've pointed to upstream's policy before, but the URL has actually
changedin the mean time:
https://www.openssl.org/policies/releasestrat.html

I've also gave some information about testing that is happening in
the stable branches at:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=765639#110

I'm not sure what you mean with "specific set of changes which
have been made".  There have been more than 900 upstream commits
since the 1.0.1e release that's in wheezy.  Most of those are
security issues being solved and bug reports that are getting
fixed.  Then there are lots of things we notice in the master
branch that we also fix in the other branches like not checking
return values, memory leaks, and so on.  But there really is too
much to get into details here I think and if you really want to
know just look at the git commit messages.
