@@ -49,24 +49,65 @@ Bash command-line completion
   `notmuch config`. The new completion support depends on the
   bash-completion package.
 
+Support for delivering messages to Maildir
+
+  There is a new command `insert` that adds a message to a Maildir
+  folder and notmuch index.

 Vim Front-End
 -------------
 
-The vim based front end to notmuch is deprecated and moved to contrib.
-We haven't been able to support this as well as we would like, and it
-has accumulated bugs and gaps in functionality.  We recommend that
-people packaging notmuch no longer provide binary packages for
-notmuch-vim, but of course that is their decision.
+The vim based front-end has been replaced with a new one that uses the Ruby
+bindings. The old font-end is available in the contrib subfolder.
 
 Emacs Interface
 ---------------
 
+New keymap to view/save parts; removed s/v/o/| part button bindings
+
+  The commands to view, save, and open MIME parts are now prefixed
+  with "." (". s" to save, ". v" to view, etc) and can be invoked with
+  point anywhere in a part, unlike the old commands, which were
+  restricted to part buttons.  The old "s"/"v"/"o"/"|" commands on
+  part buttons have been removed since they clashed with other
+  bindings (notably "s" for search!) and could not be invoked when
+  there was no part button.  The new, prefixed bindings appear in
+  show's help, so you no longer have to memorize them.
+
+Default part save directory is now `mm-default-directory`
+
+  Previously, notmuch offered to save parts and attachments to a mix
+  of `mm-default-directory`, `mailcap-download-directory`, and `~/`.
+  This has been standardized on `mm-default-directory`.
+
+Better handling of errors in search buffers
+
+  Instead of interleaving errors in search result buffers, search mode
+  now reports errors in the minibuffer.
+
+Faster search and show
+
+  Communication between Emacs and the notmuch CLI is now more
+  efficient because it uses the CLI's S-expression support.  As a
+  result, search mode should now fill search buffers faster and
+  threads should show faster.
+
 No Emacs 22 support
 
   The Emacs 22 support added late 2010 was sufficient only for a short
   period of time. After being incomplete for roughly 2 years the code
   in question was now removed from this release.
 
+Key bindings for next/previous thread
+
+  Show view has new key bindings M-n and M-p to move to the next and
+  previous thread in the search results.
+
+Python Bindings
+---------------
+
+Fix loading of libnotmuch shared library on OS X (Darwin) systems.
