+Version 1.10.0-BETA:
+       The LZX compression ratio has been slightly improved.  The default mode,
+       LZX level 50, is now almost as good as the old LZX level 100, while
+       being nearly the same speed as before.
+
+       Decompression performance has been slightly improved.
+
+       On UNIX-like systems, wimlib can now process Windows filenames that are
+       not valid Unicode due to the presence of unpaired surrogates.
+
+       On UNIX-like systems, wimlib now always assumes UTF-8 encoding with the
+       addition of surrogate codepoints.  Consequently, the environmental
+       variable WIMLIB_IMAGEX_USE_UTF8 and the flag
+       WIMLIB_INIT_FLAG_ASSUME_UTF8 no longer have any effect.
+
+       wimlib no longer depends on iconv.
+
+       Workarounds for bugs in libntfs-3g version 2013.1.13 and earlier have
+       been removed.  Users are advised to upgrade to a later version of
+       libntfs-3g.
+
+Version 1.9.2:
+       On UNIX, wimlib can now overwrite readonly files when extracting.
+
+       On Windows, fixed a bug where wimlib could leave a null DACL (a.k.a. "no
+       NTFS permissions") set on some existing directories after extraction.
+
+       On Windows, when applying a WIM image in "WIMBoot mode" when the WOF
+       driver is not loaded, wimlib can now correctly register a new WIM file
+       with the target volume when the target volume previously had had WIM
+       files unregistered.
+
+       Added a new testing program.
+
+       Clarified the main license text and updated public domain dedications
+       for certain files to be more thorough.
+
 Version 1.9.1:
        Object IDs are now saved and restored on Windows and in NTFS-3G mode.
