-Version 1.7.3-BETA:
+Version 1.7.4:
+       The Windows binary distribution no longer contains third party DLLs.
+       These dependencies are instead compiled directly into the libwim DLL.
+
+       Added more fixes for wimlib on non-x86 architectures such as ARM.
+
+       Extracting files to a Windows PE in-memory filesystem no longer fails if
+       the target files do not yet exist.
+
+       Improved the performance of XPRESS compression and LZMS decompression.
+
+       Enabled SSSE3 accelerated SHA-1 computation in x86_64 Windows builds.
+       It will automatically be faster on newer Intel and AMD processors.
+
+       Removed the --with-imagex-progname and --enable-more-assertions
+       configure options.
+
+Version 1.7.3:
+       Fix for very slow export from solid WIM / ESD files.
+
+       Fix for LZX and LZMS algorithms on non-x86 architectures, such as ARM.
+
+       New progress message: WIMLIB_PROGRESS_MSG_HANDLE_ERROR.  Applications
+       may use this to treat some types of errors as non-fatal.
+
        The library now permits making in-memory changes to a WIMStruct backed
        by a read-only WIM file.

                Added a hack to try to work around an intermittent bug in
                Microsoft's WOF (Windows Overlay Filesystem) driver.
 
-       Added a workaround that tries to prevent short filename conflicts.  It
-       can have an effect primarily on versions of Windows that do not support
-       removing short names from files (earlier than Windows 7).
