+The function notmuch_database_close has been split into
+notmuch_database_close and notmuch_database_destroy

   database and thus release the lock associated with it without
   destroying the data structures obtained from it.
 
+notmuch_database_open and notmuch_database_create now return errors
+
+  The type signatures of notmuch_database_open and
+  notmuch_database_create have changed so that the functions now
+  return a notmuch_status_t and take an out-argument for returning the
+  new database object.
