-Version 1.9.0-BETA:
+Version 1.9.1-BETA:
+       Added support for object IDs, which are a type of metadata sometimes
+       present on NTFS filesystems.  They are used by some Windows software,
+       such as the Distributed Link Tracking Service.  Object IDs are now
+       captured and applied both in NTFS-3g mode and on Windows when supported
+       by the filesystem.
+
+       Reduced memory usage when exporting large numbers of WIM images.
+
+       Made some minor build-related updates.  Notably, enabled "silent" make
+       rules; this makes the output cleaner when building from source.
+
+       Some Windows-specific updates:
+               Fixed a bug where duplicate backslashes could be generated in
+               link targets when extracting symbolic links and junctions.
+
+               Fixed a bug where the .cmd shortcuts for wimlib-imagex would not
+               work if their full path contained a space.
+
+               Fixed bugs when capturing a WIM image from a SMB filesystem.
+
+               Added warning message about known issue with WindowsApps folder.
+
+               Added instructions for building from source on Windows.
+
+               VSS support is no longer marked "experimental".

+Version 1.9.0:

        Added experimental support for Windows VSS (Volume Shadow Copy Service).
        The new '--snapshot' argument to 'wimcapture' makes wimlib automatically
        create and use a temporary VSS snapshot when capturing a WIM image.

+       Improved performance of directory tree scans on Windows.
+
+       On Windows, to improve capture performance, wimlib now sometimes opens
+       files by inode number rather than by path.  This is enabled for
+       wimcapture and wimappend, but for now other applications have to opt-in.

        have been slightly tweaked.

        Added a new '--image-property' option to 'wimcapture', 'wimappend', and
