+JSON reply format
+
+  "notmuch reply" can now produce JSON output that contains the headers
+  for a reply message and full information about the original message
+  begin replied to. This allows MUAs to create replies intelligtently.
+  For example, an MUA that can parse HTML might quote HTML parts.
+
+  Calling notmuch reply with --format=json imposes the restriction that
+  only a single message is returned by the search, as replying to
+  multiple messages does not have a well-defined behavior. The default
+  retains its current behavior for multiple message replies.
+
+Tag exclusion
+
+  Tags can be automatically excluded from search results by adding them
+  to the new 'search.exclude_tags' option in the Notmuch config file.
+
+  This behaviour can be overridden by explicitly including an excluded
+  tag in your query, for example:
+
+    notmuch search $your_query and tag:$excluded_tag
+
+  Existing users will probably want to run "notmuch setup" again to add
+  the new well-commented [search] section to the configuration file.
+
+  For new configurations, accepting the default setting will cause the
+  tags "deleted" and "spam" to be excluded, equivalent to running:
+
+    notmuch config set search.exclude_tags deleted spam
+
+Emacs Interface
+---------------
+
+Reply improvement using the JSON format
+
+  Emacs now uses the JSON reply format to create replies. It obeys
+  the customization variables message-citation-line-format and
+  message-citation-line-function when creating the first line of the
+  reply body, and it will quote HTML parts if no text/plain parts are
+  available.

+Command-Line Interface
+----------------------
+
+Reply to sender
+
+  "notmuch reply" has gained the ability to create a reply template
+  for replying just to the sender of the message, in addition to reply
+  to all. The feature is available through the new command line option
+  --reply-to=(all|sender).
+
+Mail store folder/file ignore
+
+   A new configuration option, `new.ignore`, lets users specify a
+   ;-separated list of file and directory names that will not be
+   searched for messages by "notmuch new".
+
+   NOTE: *Every* file/directory that goes by one of those names will
+   be ignored, independent of its depth/location in the mail store.
+
+Unified help and manual pages
+
+   The notmuch help command now runs man for the appropriate page.  If
+   you install notmuch somewhere "unusual", you may need to update
+   MANPATH.
+
+Manual page for notmuch configuration options
+
+  The notmuch CLI configuration file options are now documented in the
+  notmuch-config(1) manual page in addition to the configuration file
+  itself.

+More flexible and consistent tagging operations
+
+  All tagging operations ("+", "-", "*") now accept multiple tags with
+  "+" or "-" prefix, like "*" operation in notmuch-search view before.
+
+  "*" operation (`notmuch-show-tag-all') is now available in
+  notmuch-show view.
+
+  `Notmuch-show-{add,remove}-tag' functions no longer accept tag
+  argument, `notmuch-show-tag-message' should be used instead.  Custom
+  bindings using these functions should be updated, e.g.:
+
+    (notmuch-show-remove-tag "unread")
+
+  should be changed to:
+
+    (notmuch-show-tag-message "-unread")
+
+Refreshing the show view ('=' by default) no longer opens or closes messages
+
+  To get the old behavior of putting messages back in their initial
+  opened/closed state, use a prefix argument, e.g., C-u =.
+
+Attachment buttons can be used to view or save attachments.
+
+  When the cursor is on an attachment button the key 's' can be used
+  to save the attachment, the key 'v' to view the attachment in the
+  default mailcap application, and the key 'o' prompts the user for an
+  application to use to open the attachment. By default Enter or mouse
+  button 1 saves the attachment but this is customisable (option
+  Notmuch Show Part Button Default Action).
+
+New functions
+
+  `notmuch-show-stash-mlarchive-link{,-and-go}' allow stashing and
+  optionally visiting a URI to the current message at one of a number
+  of Mailing List Archives.
+
+Fix MML tag quoting in replies
+
+  The MML tag quoting fix of 0.11.1 unintentionally quoted tags
+  inserted in `message-setup-hook'. Quoting is now limited to the
+  cited message.
+
+Show view archiving key binding changes
+
+  The show view archiving key bindings 'a' and 'x' now remove the
+  "inbox" tag from the current message only (instead of thread), and
+  move to the next message. At the last message, 'a' proceeds to the
+  next thread in search results, and 'x' returns to search
+  results. The thread archiving functions are now available in 'A' and
+  'X'.
+
+Support text/calendar MIME type
+
+  The text/calendar MIME type is now supported in addition to
+  text/x-vcalendar.
+
+Generate inline patch fake attachment file names from message subject
+
+  Use the message subject to generate file names for the inline patch
+  fake attachments. The names are now similar to the ones generated by
+  'git format-patch' instead of just "inline patch". See "Notmuch Show
+  Insert Text/Plain Hook" in the notmuch customize interface.
+
+Enable `notmuch-search-line-faces' by default
+
+  Make the `notmuch-search-line-faces' functionality more discoverable
+  for new users by showing "unread" messages bold and "flagged"
+  messages blue by default in the search view.
+
+Printing Support
+
+  notmuch-show mode now has simple printing support, bound to '#' by
+  default. You can customize the variable notmuch-print-mechanism.
+
+Library changes
+---------------
+
+New functions
+
+  notmuch_query_add_tag_exclude supports the new tag exclusion
+  feature.
+
+Python bindings changes
+-----------------------
+
+Python 3.2 compatibility
+
+  The python bindings are now compatible with both python 2.5+ and 3.2.
+
+Added missing unicode conversions
+
+  Python strings have to be encoded to and decoded from utf-8 when
+  calling libnotmuch functions. Porting the bindings to python 3.2
+  revealed a few function calls that were missing these conversions.
+
+Build fixes
+-----------
+
+Compatibility with GMime 2.6
+
+  It is now possible to build notmuch against both GMime 2.4 and 2.6.
+  However, a bug in GMime 2.6 before 2.6.5 causes notmuch not to
+  report signatures where the signer key is unavailable (GNOME bug
+  668085).  For compatibility with GMime 2.4's tolerance of "From "
+  headers we require GMime 2.6 >= 2.6.7.
+
+Notmuch 0.11.1 (2012-02-03)
+===========================
+
+Bug-fix release.
+----------------
+
+Fix error handling in python bindings.
+
+  The python bindings in 0.11 failed to detect NULL pointers being
+  returned from libnotmuch functions and thus failed to raise
+  exceptions to indicate the error condition. Any subsequent calls
+  into libnotmuch caused segmentation faults.
+
+Quote MML tags in replies
+
+  MML tags are text codes that Emacs uses to indicate attachments
+  (among other things) in messages being composed.  The Emacs
+  interface did not quote MML tags in the quoted text of a reply.
+  User could be tricked into replying to a maliciously formatted
+  message and not editing out the MML tags from the quoted text.  This
+  could lead to files from the user's machine being attached to the
+  outgoing message.  The Emacs interface now quotes these tags in
+  reply text, so that they do not effect outgoing messages.
