-Version 1.8.1-BETA:
+Version 1.8.2-BETA:
+       This release primarily contains various minor bug fixes and
+       improvements, including:
+
+               Reduced the stack space used by directory tree scans.
+
+               Fixed a bug where on 32-bit systems, the library could enter an
+               infinite loop if a WIM file was malformed in a specific way.
+
+               Windows symbolic links and junctions in mounted WIM images are
+               now automatically rewritten to be valid in the mounted location.
+
+               Reparse point fixes: correctly handle the "ReparseReserved"
+               field, and correctly handle "empty" (data-less) reparse points.
+
+               Improved validation of filenames.
+
+               Fixed the test scripts to work in a Turkish locale.
+
+               Fixed handling of EINTR during data I/O.
+
+               Optimized memory usage of some data structures.
+
+               Improved LZMS decompression speed.
+
+               The configure script now honors alternate pkg-config settings.
+
+       In addition, *experimental* support has been added for compressing
+       extracted files using System Compression on Windows 10.  This
+       functionality is available through the new '--compact' option to
+       'wimapply' and 'wimextract' as well as new library flags.
+
+Version 1.8.1:

        Fixed a bug in the LZX decompressor: malicious input data could cause
        out of bounds writes to memory (since wimlib v1.2.2).

+       The output of the 'wiminfo' command now consolidates various boolean
+       flags (such as "Relative path junction") into a single line.

        A file can now have both an unnamed data stream ("file contents") and a
        reparse point stream.  Such files can exist as a result of the use of
        certain Windows features, such as offline storage, including "OneDrive".

+       On Windows, it is now possible to do a "WIMBoot mode" extraction with

        On Windows, when doing an extraction in "WIMBoot mode", files larger
        than 4 gigabytes are now never extracted as externally backed.  This
        works around a bug in Microsoft's "WOF" driver.

+       In mounted WIM images, the disk usage provided for each file (st_blocks)
+       is now the compressed size rather than the uncompressed size.

 Version 1.8.0:
        Improved the LZX compressor.  It is now 15-20% faster than before and
        provides a slightly better compression ratio.
