+Version 0.12.0 (October 2014)
+-----------------------------
+
+ * ~1700 changes, numerous bugfixes
+
+ * Highlights
+
+ * The introductory documentation (now called The Rust Guide) has
+ been completely rewritten, as have a number of supplementary
+ guides.
+ * Rust's package manager, Cargo, is awesome.
+ * Many API's in `std` have been reviewed and updated for
+ consistency with the in-development Rust coding
+ guidelines. The standard library documentation tracks
+ stabilization progress.
+ * Minor libraries have been moved out-of-tree to the rust-lang org
+ on GitHub: uuid, semver, glob, num, hexfloat, fourcc. They can
+ be installed with Cargo.
+ * Lifetime elision allows lifetime annotations to be left off of
+ function declarations in many common scenarios.
+ * Rust now works on 64-bit Windows.
+
+ * Language
+ * A new slicing syntax (e.g. `[0..4]`) has been introduced behind
+ the 'slicing_syntax' feature gate, and can be overloaded with
+ the `Slice` or `SliceMut` traits.
+ * Indexing can be overloaded with the `Index` and `IndexMut`
+ traits.
+ * The `if let` construct takes a branch only if the `let` pattern
+ matches, currently behind the 'if_let' feature gate.
+ * `let` and `match` bindings and argument names in macros are now
+ hygienic.
+ * The `#[crate_id]` attribute is no longer supported; versioning
+ is handled by the package manager.
+ * Mutation and assignment is no longer allowed in pattern guards.
+ * Generic structs and enums can now have trait bounds.
+ * `use foo = bar` is now written `use bar as foo`.
+ * The new, more efficient, closure types ('unboxed closures') have
+ been added under a feature gate, 'unboxed_closures'. These will
+ soon replace the existing closure types, once higher-ranked
+ trait lifetimes are added to the language.
+ * The `Share` trait is now called `Sync` to free up the term
+ 'shared' to refer to 'shared reference' (the default reference
+ type.
+ * Dynamically-sized types have been mostly implemented,
+ unifying the behavior of fat-pointer types with the rest of the
+ type system.
+ * As part of dynamically-sized types, the `Sized` trait has been
+ introduced, which qualifying types implement by default, and
+ which type parameters expect by default. To specify that a type
+ parametr does not need to be sized, write `<Sized? T>`. Most
+ types are `Sized`, notable exceptions being unsized arrays
+ (`[T]`) and trait types.
+ * Closures can return `!`, as in `|| -> !` or `proc() ->`.
+ * The syntax for matching of sub-slices has been changed to use a
+ postfix `..` instead of prefix (.e.g. `[a, b, c..]`), for
+ consistency with other uses of `..` and to future-proof
+ potential additional uses of the syntax.
+ * Matching of sub-slices in non-tail positions (e.g. `[a.., b,
+ c]`) has been put behind the 'advanced_slice_patterns' feature
+ gate and may be removed in the future.
+
+ * Libraries
+ * Library documentation has been improved for a number of modules.
+ * Bit-vectors, collections::bitv has been modernized.
+ * The url crate is deprecated in favor of
+ http://github.com/servo/rust-url, which can be installed with
+ Cargo.
+ * Most I/O stream types can be cloned and subsequently closed
+ from a different thread.
+ * A `std::time::Duration` type has been added for use in I/O
+ methods that rely on timers, as well as in the 'time' crate's
+ `Timespec` arithmetic.
+ * The green-thread scheduler, libgreen, has been removed, as
+ has the associated runtime I/O abstraction layer.
+
+ * Tooling
+ * rustdoc output now indicates the stability levels of API's.
+ * The `--crate-name` flag can specify the name of the crate
+ being compiled, like `#[crate_name]`.
+ * The `-C metadata` specifies additional metada to hash into
+ symbol names, and `-C extra-filename` specifies additional
+ information to put into the output filename, for use by
+ the package manager for versioning.
+ * debug info generation has continued to improve and should be
+ more reliable under both gdb and lldb.
+ * rustc has experimental support for compiling in parallel
+ using the `-C codegen-units` flag.
+ * rustc no longer encodes rpath information into binaries by
+ default.
+
+ * Misc
+ * Stack usage has been optimized with LLVM lifetime annotations.
+ * Official Rust binaries on Linux are more compatible with older
+ kernels and distributions, built on CentOS 5.10.
