 ## charybdis-3.6-dev
 
 ### build
 - Build system has been converted to libtool + automake for sanity reasons.
+- The compile date is now set at configure time rather than build time, allowing for
+  reproducible builds. (#148, #149)
+- Support for GNUTLS 3.4 has been added.
 
 ### user
 - Import the ability to exceed MAXCHANNELS from ircd-seven.
+- Implement IRCv3.2 enhanced capability negotiation (`CAP LS 302`).
+- Implement support for receiving and sending IRCv3 message tags.
+- Implement IRCv3.2 capabilities: (#141)
+  - account-tag
+  - echo-message
+  - invite-notify
+  - sasl
+  - server-time
+- SASL: certificate fingerprints are now always sent to the SASL agent, allowing for
+  the certificate to be used as a second authentication factor.
 
 ### oper
 - Merge several features from ircd-seven:
@@ -20,14 +33,40 @@ See LICENSE for licensing details (GPL v2).
   - Implement a channel mode that disallows kicking IRC operators (+M).
 - Enhance the oper override system, allowing more flexibility and detail
   in network-wide notices.
+- DNS, ident, and blacklist lookups have been moved to a dedicated daemon known
+  as authd. Some cosmetic changes to blacklist statistics and rejection notices
+  have resulted.
+- An experimental OPM scanner has been added to authd. Plaintext SOCKS4,
+  SOCKS5, and HTTP CONNECT proxies can be checked for.
+- The LOCOPS command has been moved from core to an extension.
 
 ### conf
 - Add the ability to strip color codes from topics unconditionally.
+- The obsolete hub option from server info has been removed.
+
+### docs
+- The documentation has been cleaned up; obsolete files have been purged, and
+  files have been renamed and shuffled around to be more consistent.
 
 ### code
+- irc_dictionary and irc_radixtree related functions are now in librb, and
+  prefixed accordingly. Typedefs have been added for consistency with existing
+  data structures. For example, now you would write `rb_dictionary *foo` and
+  `RB_DICTIONARY_FOREACH`.
+- C99 bools are now included and used in the code. Don't use ints as simple true
+  or false flags anymore. In accordance with this change, the `YES`/`NO` and
+  `TRUE`/`FALSE` macros have been removed.
+- libratbox has been renamed to librb, as we have diverged from upstream long
+  ago.
 - Almost all 2.8-style hashtable structures have been moved to dictionaries or
   radix trees, resulting in significant memory savings.
 - The block allocator has been disabled and is no longer used.
+- The ratbox client capabilities have been ported to use the ircd capabilities
+  framework, allowing for modules to provide capabilities.
+- Support for restarting ssld has been added.  ssld processes which are still
+  servicing clients will remain in use, but not service new connections, and
+  are garbage collected when they are no longer servicing connections.
+- Support for ratbox-style 'iodebug' hooks has been removed.
