+Notmuch 0.10 (2011-xx-xx)
+=========================
+
+New build and testing features
+------------------------------
+
+Emacs tests are now done in dtach. This means that dtach  is now
+needed to run the notmuch test suite, at least until the checking for
+prerequisites is improved.
+
+New command-line features
+-------------------------
+
+Add "notmuch restore --accumulate" option
+
+  The --accumulate switch causes the union of the existing and new tags to be
+  applied, instead of replacing each message's tags as they are read in from
+  the dump file.
+
+Add search terms to  "notmuch dump"
+
+  The dump command now takes an optional search term much like notmuch
+  search/show/tag. The output file argument of dump is deprecated in
+  favour of using stdout.
+
+Optimizations
+-------------
+
+Search avoids opening and parsing message files
+
+  We now store more information in the database so search no longer
+  has to open every message file to get basic headers.  This can
+  improve search speed by as much as 10X, but taking advantage of this
+  requires a database rebuild:
+
+	notmuch dump > notmuch.dump
+	# Backup, then remove notmuch database ($MAIL/.notmuch)
+	notmuch new
+	notmuch restore notmuch.dump
+
+Notmuch 0.9 (2011-10-01)
+========================
+
+New, general features
+---------------------
+
+Correct handling of interruptions during "notmuch new"
+
+  "notmuch new" now operates as a series of small, self-consistent
+  transactions, so it can correctly resume after an interruption or
+  crash.  Previously, interruption could lose existing tags, fail to
+  detect messages on resume, or leave the database in a state
+  temporarily or permanently inconsistent with the mail store.
+
+Library changes
+---------------
+
+New functions
+
+  notmuch_database_begin_atomic and notmuch_database_end_atomic allow
+  multiple database operations to be performed atomically.
+
+  notmuch_database_find_message_by_filename does exactly what it says.
+
+API changes
+
+  notmuch_database_find_message (and n_d_f_m_by_filename) now return
+  a status indicator and uses an output parameter for the
+  message. This change required changing the SONAME of libnotmuch to
+  libnotmuch.so.2
+
+Python bindings changes
+-----------------------
+
+  - Re-encode python unicode objects to utf-8 before passing back to
+    libnotmuch.
+  - Support Database().begin_atomic()/end_atomic()
+  - Support Database().find_message_by_filename()
+    NB! This needs a db opened in READ-WRITE mode currently, or it will crash
+    the python process. The is a limitation (=bug) of the underlying libnotmuch.
+  - Fixes where we would not throw NotmuchErrors when we should (Justus Winter)
+  - Update for n_d_find_message* API changes (see above).
+
+Ruby bindings changes
+---------------------
+
+  - Wrap new library functions notmuch_database_{begin,end}_atomic.
+  - Add new exception Notmuch::UnbalancedAtomicError. 
+  - Rename destroy  to destroy! according to Ruby naming conventions.
+  - Update for n_d_find_message* API changes (see above).
+
+Emacs improvements
+------------------
+
+  * Add gpg callback to crypto sigstatus buttons to retrieve/refresh
+    signing key.
+  * Add notmuch-show-refresh-view function (and corresponding binding)
+    to refresh the view of a notmuch-show buffer.
+
+Reply formatting cleanup
+------------------------
+
+  "notmuch reply" no longer includes notification that non-leafnode
+  MIME parts are being suppressed.
+
+Notmuch 0.8 (2011-09-10)
+========================
+
+Improved handling of message/rfc822 parts
+
+  Both in the CLI and the emacs interface.  Output of rfc822 parts now
+  includes the primary headers, as well as the body and all subparts.
+  Output of the completely raw rfc822-formatted message, including all
+  headers, is unfortunately not yet supported (but hopefully will be
+  soon).
+
+Improved Build system portability 
+
+  Certain parts of the shell script generating notmuch.sym were
+  specific to the GNU versions of sed and nm. The new version should
+  be more portable to e.g. OpenBSD.
+
+Documentation update for Ruby bindings
+
+  Added documentation, typo fixes, and improved support for rdoc.
+
+Unicode, iterator, PEP8 changes for python bindings
+
+  - PEP8 (code formatting) changes for python files.
+  - Remove Tags.__len__ ; see 0.6 release notes for motivation.
+  - Decode headers as UTF8, encode (unicode) database paths as UTF8.
