#+STARTUP: indent showall -*- org -*-
+* 0.2.2 - UNRELEASED
+
+This release is is heavily based on the work of Miloslav Trmač
+<mitr@redhat.com>, with minor edits outside of his contributions.
+
+** Performance improvements
+
+Significant performance improvements and internal code cleanups have
+been made, resulting in some cases over 20% speed ups.
+
+** Support for a wider range of format strings
+
+On glibc-based platforms, the library now uses parse_printf_format(),
+to support a far wider range of format strings than the old code
+did. On other platforms, the old code is still used - but has received
+improvements too.
+
+** Bugfixes
+
+*** Fixed a 1-byte heap overflow in ul_buffer_initialize
+
+*** Don't use \f in JSON, use \uNNNN instead
+
+Some parsers - notably json-c - do not recognise \f, so fall back to
+\uNNNN instead.
+
+*** Timestamp formatting has been fixed
+
+*** Log mask handling has also been fixed
+
+Previously, if the mask was not a pure priority mask, the library did
+not handle it appropriately.
+
* 0.2.1 - <2012-05-02 Wed>
** Fixed JSON formatting for syslog() messages
