+Version 0.11.0 (July 2014)
+-------------------------
+
+ * ~1700 changes, numerous bugfixes
+
+ * Language
+ * ~[T] has been removed from the language. This type is superseded by
+ the Vec<T> type.
+ * ~str has been removed from the language. This type is superseded by
+ the String type.
+ * ~T has been removed from the language. This type is superseded by the
+ Box<T> type.
+ * @T has been removed from the language. This type is superseded by the
+ standard library's std::gc::Gc<T> type.
+ * Struct fields are now all private by default.
+ * Vector indices and shift amounts are both required to be a `uint`
+ instead of any integral type.
+ * Byte character, byte string, and raw byte string literals are now all
+ supported by prefixing the normal literal with a `b`.
+ * Multiple ABIs are no longer allowed in an ABI string
+ * The syntax for lifetimes on closures/procedures has been tweaked
+ slightly: `<'a>|A, B|: 'b + K -> T`
+ * Floating point modulus has been removed from the language; however it
+ is still provided by a library implementation.
+ * Private enum variants are now disallowed.
+ * The `priv` keyword has been removed from the language.
+ * A closure can no longer be invoked through a &-pointer.
+ * The `use foo, bar, baz;` syntax has been removed from the language.
+ * The transmute intrinsic no longer works on type parameters.
+ * Statics now allow blocks/items in their definition.
+ * Trait bounds are separated from objects with + instead of : now.
+ * Objects can no longer be read while they are mutably borrowed.
+ * The address of a static is now marked as insignificant unless the
+ #[inline(never)] attribute is placed it.
+ * The #[unsafe_destructor] attribute is now behind a feature gate.
+ * Struct literals are no longer allowed in ambiguous positions such as
+ if, while, match, and for..in.
+ * Declaration of lang items and intrinsics are now feature-gated by
+ default.
+ * Integral literals no longer default to `int`, and floating point
+ literals no longer default to `f64`. Literals must be suffixed with an
+ appropriate type if inference cannot determine the type of the
+ literal.
+ * The Box<T> type is no longer implicitly borrowed to &mut T.
+ * Procedures are now required to not capture borrowed references.
+
+ * Libraries
+ * The standard library is now a "facade" over a number of underlying
+ libraries. This means that development on the standard library should
+ be speeder due to smaller crates, as well as a clearer line between
+ all dependencies.
+ * A new library, libcore, lives under the standard library's facade
+ which is Rust's "0-assumption" library, suitable for embedded and
+ kernel development for example.
+ * A regex crate has been added to the standard distribution. This crate
+ includes statically compiled regular expressions.
+ * The unwrap/unwrap_err methods on Result require a Show bound for
+ better error messages.
+ * The return types of the std::comm primitives have been centralized
+ around the Result type.
+ * A number of I/O primitives have gained the ability to time out their
+ operations.
+ * A number of I/O primitives have gained the ability to close their
+ reading/writing halves to cancel pending operations.
+ * Reverse iterator methods have been removed in favor of `rev()` on
+ their forward-iteration counterparts.
+ * A bitflags! macro has been added to enable easy interop with C and
+ management of bit flags.
+ * A debug_assert! macro is now provided which is disabled when
+ `--cfg ndebug` is passed to the compiler.
+ * A graphviz crate has been added for creating .dot files.
+ * The std::cast module has been migrated into std::mem.
+ * The std::local_data api has been migrated from freestanding functions
+ to being based on methods.
+ * The Pod trait has been renamed to Copy.
+ * jemalloc has been added as the default allocator for types.
+ * The API for allocating memory has been changed to use proper alignment
+ and sized deallocation
+ * Connecting a TcpStream or binding a TcpListener is now based on a
+ string address and a u16 port. This allows connecting to a hostname as
+ opposed to an IP.
+ * The Reader trait now contains a core method, read_at_least(), which
+ correctly handles many repeated 0-length reads.
+ * The process-spawning API is now centered around a builder-style
+ Command struct.
+ * The :? printing qualifier has been moved from the standard library to
+ an external libdebug crate.
+ * Eq/Ord have been renamed to PartialEq/PartialOrd. TotalEq/TotalOrd
+ have been renamed to Eq/Ord.
+ * The select/plural methods have been removed from format!. The escapes
+ for { and } have also changed from \{ and \} to {{ and }},
+ respectively.
+ * The TaskBuilder API has been re-worked to be a true builder, and
+ extension traits for spawning native/green tasks have been added.
+
+ * Tooling
+ * All breaking changes to the language or libraries now have their
+ commit message annotated with `[breaking-change]` to allow for easy
+ discovery of breaking changes.
+ * The compiler will now try to suggest how to annotate lifetimes if a
+ lifetime-related error occurs.
+ * Debug info continues to be improved greatly with general bug fixes and
+ better support for situations like link time optimization (LTO).
+ * Usage of syntax extensions when cross-compiling has been fixed.
+ * Functionality equivalent to GCC & Clang's -ffunction-sections,
+ -fdata-sections and --gc-sections has been enabled by default
+ * The compiler is now stricter about where it will load module files
+ from when a module is declared via `mod foo;`.
+ * The #[phase(syntax)] attribute has been renamed to #[phase(plugin)].
+ Syntax extensions are now discovered via a "plugin registrar" type
+ which will be extended in the future to other various plugins.
+ * Lints have been restructured to allow for dynamically loadable lints.
+ * A number of rustdoc improvements:
+ * The HTML output has been visually redesigned.
+ * Markdown is now powered by hoedown instead of sundown.
+ * Searching heuristics have been greatly improved.
+ * The search index has been reduced in size by a great amount.
+ * Cross-crate documentation via `pub use` has been greatly improved.
+ * Primitive types are now hyperlinked and documented.
+ * Documentation has been moved from static.rust-lang.org/doc to
+ doc.rust-lang.org
+ * A new sandbox, play.rust-lang.org, is available for running and
+ sharing rust code examples on-line.
+ * Unused attributes are now more robustly warned about.
+ * The dead_code lint now warns about unused struct fields.
+ * Cross-compiling to iOS is now supported.
+ * Cross-compiling to mipsel is now supported.
+ * Stability attributes are now inherited by default and no longer apply
+ to intra-crate usage, only inter-crate usage.
+ * Error message related to non-exhaustive match expressions have been
+ greatly improved.
