+### 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:
+ - Implement support for remote DIE/RESTART.
+ - Implement support for remote MODLOAD et al commands.
+ - Add the GRANT command which allows for temporarily opering a client.
+ - Implement the hidden oper-only channel modes framework.
+ - Implement a channel mode that disallows kicking IRC operators (+M).
+- Enhance the oper override system, allowing more flexibility and detail
+ in network-wide notices.
+
+### conf
+- Add the ability to strip color codes from topics unconditionally.
+
+### docs
+- The documentation has been cleaned up; obsolete files have been purged, and
+ stuff has been renamed and shuffled around to be more consistent.
+
+### code
+- irc_dictionary and irc_radixtree stuff is now in librb, prefixed accordingly.
+ Typedefs have been added for consistency reasons. For example, now you would
+ write `rb_dictionary *foo` and `RB_DICTIONARY_FOREACH`.
+- C99 bools have been added. Don't use ints as simple true/false flags anymore.
+ Accordingly, 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.
