 Only the most important changes more recent than version 0.6 are noted here.
 
+Version 1.3.3:
+	Capturing a WIM image should now be significantly faster in most cases
+	due to improved use of the operating system's cache and avoiding reading
+	files twice whenever possible.
+
+	The Windows build should now work on Windows XP.
+
+	On the Windows build, hidden directories are now correctly restored as
+	hidden.  Also compressed and sparse files are now restored as such.
+	(Support for encrypted files still in progress.)
+
+	Capturing and applying WIM images from filesystems other than NTFS
+	should now be possible, although it may not do exactly what you expect
+	yet.
+
+	Added support for "reparse-point" fixups (i.e. fixing up of symbolic
+	links).  See docs for --rpfix and --norpfix flags of `wimlib-imagex
+	capture' and `wimlib-imagex apply'.
+
+	The performance of splitting and joining WIMs should be slightly
+	improved.
+
+	The compression and decompression functions are now exported from the
+	library.
+
+Version 1.3.2:
+	Improvements and bugfixes for the Windows build.
+
+	Added --strict-acls options.
+
+	Fixed the way that wimlib determines the order of images in the WIM.
+
+Version 1.3.1:
+	Since wimlib can now be used on Windows, wimlib's implementation of
+	ImageX has been renamed to wimlib-imagex to avoid confusion with
+	Microsoft's implementation of ImageX, which would have the same file
+	name ("imagex.exe").  If you really don't like this you can pass the
+	--with-imagex-progname option to `configure' to choose a different name,
+	or even simply rename the binary yourself (but the former way will
+	configure the man pages to use the chosen name).
+
+	Various bugs fixed in the Windows build.  Mainly to do with capturing
+	and restoring alternate data streams correctly in weird cases, and
+	requesting the correct privileges when opening files.  Also added the
+	--noacls options to wimlib-imagex capture, append, and apply.
+
+	Windows build again: FindFirstStreamW() and FindNextStreamW() are now
+	dynamically loaded, so this may make the library compatible with Windows
+	XP (however, there may still be other problems).
+
+Version 1.3.0:
+	Added experimental support for native Windows builds.  Binaries can be
+	downloaded from the SourceForge page.
+
+	--source-list option added to `imagex capture' and `imagex append'.
+
+	Better support for different character encodings.
+
+Version 1.2.6:
+	Storing UNIX file owners, groups, and modes in WIM images is now
+	possible using `imagex capture' with the --unix-data flag.
+
+	Minor bug fixes and documentation fixes.
+
+Version 1.2.5:
+	NTFS capture: Fixed capturing duplicate reparse points.
+
+	NTFS capture: Capture first unnamed stream if there are more than one
+	(print warning instead of error).
+
+	Allow multiple test cases to execute concurrently (e.g. make -j2 check).
+
+Version 1.2.4:
+	Added --arch switch to mkwinpeimg script to support getting AMD64 WinPE
+	from the WAIK.
+
+	Update to work with ntfs-3g version 2013.1.13.
+
+Version 1.2.3:
+	Fixed truncating file to shorter but non-zero length on read-write
+	mounted WIM image.
+
+	Various code cleanups and minor documentation fixes.
+
+Version 1.2.2:
+	LZX and XPRESS decompression have received some additional optimizations
+	and should now be even faster.  (Although, they were already pretty
+	fast--- much faster than typical I/O speeds.)
+
+	Fixed a bug introduced in v1.2.1 that would cause a directory tree
+	containing hard links to be captured incorrectly in some cases.
+
+Version 1.2.1:
+	By default, unmounting a read-write mounted WIM with 'imagex unmount
+	--commit' will now change the WIM in-place without needing to write the
+	entire WIM again.  Use 'imagex unmount --commit --rebuild' to get the
+	old behavior.
+
+	'imagex unmount' no longer has a hard-coded limit of 10 minutes to wait
+	for a response from the daemon servicing the mounted WIM.  Instead,
+	every second 'imagex unmount' will check if the daemon is still alive,
+	and keep waiting if so, otherwise terminate with an error.
+
+	'imagex unmount --commit' on a read-write mounted WIM will now print
+	progress information regarding the writing of new or modified streams
+	the WIM, just like when capturing or appending a WIM.
+
+	A small change has been made to XPRESS compression and it should improve
+	the compression ratio slightly.
+
+	A change was made that may improve performance slightly when applying a
+	WIM image to a NTFS volume.
+
+	Microsoft has managed to introduce even more bugs into their software,
+	and now the WIMs for Windows 8 have incorrect (too low) reference counts
+	for some streams.  This is unsafe because such streams can be removed
+	when they are in actuality still referenced in the WIM (perhaps by a
+	different image).  wimlib will now work around this problem by fixing
+	the stream reference counts.  This is only done when wimlib_delete_image() is
+	called ('imagex delete') or when wimlib_mount_image() is called with
+	WIMLIB_MOUNT_FLAG_READWRITE ('imagex mountrw').  Please note that this
+	requires reading the metadata for all images in the WIM, so this will
+	make these operations noticably slower on WIMs with multiple images.
+
+	Various other bugfixes.
+
 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
