 Only the most important changes more recent than version 0.6 are noted here.
 
+Version 1.6.3-BETA:
+	Added support for "WIMBoot".  On any platform, you can now capture a WIM
+	as WIMBoot-compatible.  In addition, on Windows, specifically Windows
+	8.1 Update 1 and later, you can now apply a WIM archive in a special
+	mode that causes extracted files to be externally backed by the WIM
+	archive.  See the documentation for the new '--wimboot' option to
+	wimcapture and wimapply, respectively, for more information.
+
+Version 1.6.2:
+	Case-insensitive comparisons of strings (e.g. filenames) containing
+	UTF-16 codepoints above 32767 are now done correctly.
+
+	Fixed build failure on Mac OS X.
+
+	wimunmount now provides the '--new-image' option to cause changes to a
+	read-write mounted image to be committed as a new image rather than as
+	an update of the mounted image.  (The corresponding new library flag is
+	WIMLIB_UNMOUNT_FLAG_NEW_IMAGE.)
+
+	The LZMS ("recovery") compression chunk size, or "dictionary size", may
+	now be up to 1 GiB (1,073,741,824 bytes).
+
+	The performance of LZX ("maximum") and LZMS ("recovery") compression
+	with large chunk sizes has been slightly improved.
+
+Version 1.6.1:
+	Stored files with size exactly 4 GiB (4,294,967,296 bytes) are now
+	decompressed correctly.
+
+	Fixed a bug in the LZX compressor introduced in v1.5.3.  The bug
+	occurred in an unlikely case, and due to validity checks it did not
+	affect successfully created archives.
+
+	Fixed a minor compatibility issue with the LZMS compressor and
+	decompressor.  This is *not* the default compression type and was only
+	introduced in v1.6.0.  In the unlikely event that you created an
+	LZMS-compressed WIM with v1.6.0 and a checksum error is reported when
+	applying it with v1.6.1, decompress it with v1.6.0 then compress it with
+	v1.6.1.
+
+	Memory usage for LZMS and LZX compression has been decreased.
+
+	wimextract now allows wildcard characters in paths specified on the
+	command line.  Also, the '--strict-wildcards' option has been removed
+	and replaced with the inverse option '--nullglob'.  See the
+	documentation for wimextract for more details and changes.
+
+	The wimlib_extract_files() function is now considered deprecated in
+	favor of wimlib_extract_paths().
+
+	Fixed more permissions problems when extracting files on Windows.
+
+	A new '--no-attributes' option has been added to wimapply and
+	wimextract.  The library flag is WIMLIB_EXTRACT_FLAG_NO_ATTRIBUTES.
+
+	The default chunk size is now set correctly when changing the
+	compression type of a WIM, for example with 'wimoptimize'.
+
+	The '--metadata' option to wiminfo has been replaced with the
+	'--detailed' option to wimdir.
+
+	In relevant wimlib-imagex commands, '--solid' may now be used as an
+	alias for '--pack-streams'.
