 Only the most important changes more recent than version 0.6 are noted here.
 
+Version 1.2.0:
+       Appending images to a WIM is now be done by default without re-building
+       the whole WIM.  Use the --rebuild flag to get the old behavior (which
+       was to re-build the entire WIM when a new image is appended).
+
+       A new command `imagex optimize' is now available to manually re-build a
+       WIM that has wasted space due to repeated appends.
+
+       Progress information has been improved, and now arbitrary callback
+       functions can be used to show the progress of a WIM operation.
+
+       A possible bug with changing the bootable image of a WIM was fixed.
+
+       Some advisory locking is now done to prevent two processes from
+       modifying a WIM at the same time (but only in some cases).  For example,
+       you cannot mount two images from a WIM read-write at the same time.
+
+       Some functions have been reorganized:
+               * wimlib_mount() renamed to wimlib_mount_image().
+               * wimlib_unmount() renamed to wimlib_unmount_image().
+               * wimlib_overwrite_xml_and_header() removed as
+               wimlib_overwrite() suffices now.
+               * wimlib_apply_image_to_ntfs_volume() removed as
+               wimlib_extract_image() suffices now.
+               * wimlib_add_image_from_ntfs_volume() removed as
+               * wimlib_add_image() suffices now.
+
+       Previously, the soname of libwim.so has been 0.0.0, despite many
+       interface changes.  The soname is now updated to 1.0.0 and will now be
+       updated each release.
+
+Version 1.1.0:
+       Resources will now be compressed using multiple threads by default.
+       (This applies to `imagex capture', `imagex append', and `imagex
+       export').
+
+       Some performance improvements in mounted WIMs.
+
+       More progress information is shown when capturing a WIM.
+
+Version 1.0.4:
+       Lots of minor fixes, code cleanups, and some documentation updates.
+       Nothing in particular is really noteworthy.
+
+Version 1.0.3:
+       LZX and XPRESS compression improvements.
+
+       Fixed calculation of Directory Count, File Count, Total Bytes, and Hard
+       Link Bytes of the WIM.
+
+Version 1.0.2:
+       Fixed bug when capturing NTFS file with multiple named data streams.
+
+       Internally, we are now using inode structures, even though these don't
+       appear literally in the WIM file.  This simplifies some of the code
+       (mainly for WIM mounting) and likely fixed a few problems, although it
+       needs more testing.
+
+Version 1.0.1:
+       Fixed problem when exporting images from XPRESS to LZX compressed WIM or
+       vice versa
+
 Version 1.0.0:
        Enough changes to call it version 1.0.0!
