+Library
+-------
+
+Improve exception handling in the library. This should
+largely eliminate terminations inside the library due to uncaught
+exceptions or internal errors.  No doubt there are a few uncovered
+code paths still; please report them as bugs.
+
+Add `notmuch_message_get_flag_st` and
+`notmuch_message_has_maildir_flag_st`, and deprecate the existing
+non-status providing versions.
+
+Move memory de-allocation from `notmuch_database_close` to
+`notmuch_database_destroy`.
+
+Handle relative filenames in `notmuch_database_index_file`, as
+promised in the documentation.
