 Only the most important changes more recent than version 0.6 are noted here.
 
+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
+	was to re-build the entire WIM when a new image is appended).
+
+	A new command `imagex optimize' is now available to manually re-build a
+	WIM that has wasted space due to repeated appends.
+
+	Progress information has been improved, and now arbitrary callback
+	functions can be used to show the progress of a WIM operation.
+
+	A possible bug with changing the bootable image of a WIM was fixed.
+
+	Some advisory locking is now done to prevent two processes from
+	modifying a WIM at the same time (but only in some cases).  For example,
+	you cannot mount two images from a WIM read-write at the same time.
+
+	Some functions have been reorganized:
+		* wimlib_mount() renamed to wimlib_mount_image().
+		* wimlib_unmount() renamed to wimlib_unmount_image().
+		* wimlib_overwrite_xml_and_header() removed as
+		wimlib_overwrite() suffices now.
+		* wimlib_apply_image_to_ntfs_volume() removed as
+		wimlib_extract_image() suffices now.
+		* wimlib_add_image_from_ntfs_volume() removed as
+		* wimlib_add_image() suffices now.
+
+	Previously, the soname of libwim.so has been 0.0.0, despite many
+	interface changes.  The soname is now updated to 1.0.0 and will now be
+	updated each release.
+
+Version 1.1.0:
+	Resources will now be compressed using multiple threads by default.
+	(This applies to `imagex capture', `imagex append', and `imagex
+	export').
+
+	Some performance improvements in mounted WIMs.
+
+	More progress information is shown when capturing a WIM.
+
+Version 1.0.4:
+	Lots of minor fixes, code cleanups, and some documentation updates.
+	Nothing in particular is really noteworthy.
+
+Version 1.0.3:
+	LZX and XPRESS compression improvements.
+
+	Fixed calculation of Directory Count, File Count, Total Bytes, and Hard
+	Link Bytes of the WIM.
+
 Version 1.0.2:
-	Fixed bug when capturing NTFS file with multiple named data streams
+	Fixed bug when capturing NTFS file with multiple named data streams.
+
+	Internally, we are now using inode structures, even though these don't
+	appear literally in the WIM file.  This simplifies some of the code
+	(mainly for WIM mounting) and likely fixed a few problems, although it
+	needs more testing.
 
 Version 1.0.1:
 	Fixed problem when exporting images from XPRESS to LZX compressed WIM or
