+Version 1.28.0 (2018-08-02)
+===========================
+
+Language
+--------
+- [The `#[repr(transparent)]` attribute is now stable.][51562] This attribute
+ allows a Rust newtype wrapper (`struct NewType<T>(T);`) to be represented as
+ the inner type across Foreign Function Interface (FFI) boundaries.
+- [The keywords `pure`, `sizeof`, `alignof`, and `offsetof` have been unreserved
+ and can now be used as identifiers.][51196]
+- [The `GlobalAlloc` trait and `#[global_allocator]` attribute are now
+ stable.][51241] This will allow users to specify a global allocator for
+ their program.
+- [Unit test functions marked with the `#[test]` attribute can now return
+ `Result<(), E: Debug>` in addition to `()`.][51298]
+- [The `lifetime` specifier for `macro_rules!` is now stable.][50385] This
+ allows macros to easily target lifetimes.
+
+Compiler
+--------
+- [The `s` and `z` optimisation levels are now stable.][50265] These optimisations
+ prioritise making smaller binary sizes. `z` is the same as `s` with the
+ exception that it does not vectorise loops, which typically results in an even
+ smaller binary.
+- [The short error format is now stable.][49546] Specified with
+ `--error-format=short` this option will provide a more compressed output of
+ rust error messages.
+- [Added a lint warning when you have duplicated `macro_export`s.][50143]
+- [Reduced the number of allocations in the macro parser.][50855] This can
+ improve compile times of macro heavy crates on average by 5%.
+
+Libraries
+---------
+- [Implemented `Default` for `&mut str`.][51306]
+- [Implemented `From<bool>` for all integer and unsigned number types.][50554]
+- [Implemented `Extend` for `()`.][50234]
+- [The `Debug` implementation of `time::Duration` should now be more easily
+ human readable.][50364] Previously a `Duration` of one second would printed as
+ `Duration { secs: 1, nanos: 0 }` and will now be printed as `1s`.
+- [Implemented `From<&String>` for `Cow<str>`, `From<&Vec<T>>` for `Cow<[T]>`,
+ `From<Cow<CStr>>` for `CString`, `From<CString>, From<CStr>, From<&CString>`
+ for `Cow<CStr>`, `From<OsString>, From<OsStr>, From<&OsString>` for
+ `Cow<OsStr>`, `From<&PathBuf>` for `Cow<Path>`, and `From<Cow<Path>>`
+ for `PathBuf`.][50170]
+- [Implemented `Shl` and `Shr` for `Wrapping<u128>`
+ and `Wrapping<i128>`.][50465]
+- [`DirEntry::metadata` now uses `fstatat` instead of `lstat` when
+ possible.][51050] This can provide up to a 40% speed increase.
+- [Improved error messages when using `format!`.][50610]
+
+Stabilized APIs
+---------------
+- [`Iterator::step_by`]
+- [`Path::ancestors`]
+- [`btree_map::Entry::or_default`]
+- [`fmt::Alignment`]

+
+Cargo
+-----
+- [Cargo will now no longer allow you to publish crates with build scripts that
+ modify the `src` directory.][cargo/5584] The `src` directory in a crate should be
+ considered to be immutable.
+
+Misc
+----
+- [The `suggestion_applicability` field in `rustc`'s json output is now
+ stable.][50486] This will allow dev tools to check whether a code suggestion
+ would apply to them.
+
+Compatibility Notes
+-------------------
+- [Rust will no longer consider trait objects with duplicated constraints to
+ have implementations.][51276] For example the below code will now fail
+ to compile.
+ ```rust
+ trait Trait {}
+
+ impl Trait + Send {
+ fn test(&self) { println!("one"); } //~ ERROR duplicate definitions with name `test`
+ }
+
+ impl Trait + Send + Send {
+ fn test(&self) { println!("two"); }
+ }
+ ```

+Version 1.27.1 (2018-07-10)
+===========================
+
+Security Notes
+--------------
+
+- rustdoc would execute plugins in the /tmp/rustdoc/plugins directory
+ when running, which enabled executing code as some other user on a
+ given machine. This release fixes that vulnerability; you can read
+ more about this on the [blog][rustdoc-sec]. The associated CVE is [CVE-2018-1000622].
+
+ Thank you to Red Hat for responsibily disclosing this vulnerability to us.
+
+Compatibility Notes
+-------------------
+
+- The borrow checker was fixed to avoid an additional potential unsoundness when using
+ match ergonomics: [#51415][51415], [#49534][49534].
