+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".
+
+		Added missing license file for libdivsufsort-lite.
+
+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.
+
+	Implemented setting of Windows-specific XML information, such as
+	architecture, system root, and version details.  This information is now
+	automatically set in newly captured WIM images, when appropriate.
+
+	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.
+
+	The progress messages printed by wimlib-imagex while writing WIM files
+	have been slightly tweaked.
+
+	Progress information for directory tree scans now counts all hard links.
+	Also, on Windows "\\?\" is no longer stripped from the current path.
+
+	Added a new '--image-property' option to 'wimcapture', 'wimappend', and
+	'wiminfo'.  This option lets you assign values to elements in a WIM
+	file's XML document by name.
+
+	The wimlib_get_image_property() and wimlib_set_image_property() API
+	functions now support numerically indexed elements.
+
+	Fixed a bug where, on Windows, wimlib would change the security
+	descriptor of the target directory of an extraction even when the
+	'--no-acls' option was specified.
+
 Version 1.8.3:
 	Fixed a bug with libntfs-3g extraction present since v1.8.1.  Sometimes,
 	some Microsoft software would not correctly recognize data in the
