+NFD version 0.5.0
+-----------------
+
+Release date: October 4, 2016
+
+.. note::
+ Version 0.5.0 introduces several breaking changes to the internal API (forwarding pipelines,
+ strategy interface, tables) and wire format of management protocol
+
+.. note::
+ As of version 0.5.0, NFD requires a modern compiler (gcc >= 4.8.2, clang >= 3.4) and a
+ relatively new version of Boost libraries (>= 1.54). This means that the code no longer compiles
+ with the packaged version of gcc and boost libraries on Ubuntu 12.04. NFD can still be
+ compiled on such systems, but requires separate installation of a newer version of the compiler
+ (e.g., clang-3.4) and dependencies.
+
+Changes since version 0.4.1
+
+New features
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- Add Adaptive SRTT-based Forwarding strategy (:issue:`3566`)
+
+- **breaking change** Introduce configurable policy for admission of unsolicited data packets into
+ the content store (:issue:`2181`). Currently available policies:
+
+ * ``DropAllUnsolicitedDataPolicy`` (**the new default**): drop all unsolicited data packets
+ * ``AdmitLocalUnsolicitedDataPolicy`` (the old default): allow unsolicited data packets from local
+ applications to be cached (e.g., with a lower priority), drop all other unsolicited data
+ * ``AdmitNetworkUnsolicitedDataPolicy``: allow unsolicited data packets from the network to be
+ cached (e.g., with a lower priority), drop all other unsolicited data
+ * ``AdmitAllUnsolicitedDataPolicy``: cache all unsolicited data packets
+
+- Introduce mechanism to update properties (e.g., flags, persistency) of an existing Face
+ (:issue:`3731`). Note that the corresponding ``nfdc`` command will be available in the next
+ release.
+
+Updates
+^^^^^^^
+
+- **breaking change** Strategy API update. FIB entry is no longer supplied to the
+ ``Strategy::afterReceiveInterest`` method (i.e., FIB lookup is not performed by the forwarding
+ pipelines). When necessary, a strategy can request FIB lookup using ``Strategy::lookupFib``
+ (:issue:`3664`, :issue:`3205`, :issue:`3679`, :issue:`3205`)
+
+- **breaking change** ForwarderStatus dataset can now be requested only with
+ ``/localhost/nfd/status/general`` interest (:issue:`3379`)
+
+- Optimizations of tables and forwarding, including reduced usage of ``shared_ptr`` (:issue:`3205`,
+ :issue:`3164`, :issue:`3687`)
+
+- Display extended diagnostic information if NFD crashes (:issue:`2541`)
+
+- Visualize NACK counters in ``nfd-status`` output (:issue:`3569`)
+
+- Extend management to process the new ``LocalFieldsEnabled`` attribute when creating/updating Faces
+ (:issue:`3731`)
+
+- Switch logging facility to use Boost.Log (:issue:`3562`)
+
+- Refactor implementation of ``nfdc`` tool, which now supports a new command-line syntax and
+ retrieval of status datasets (:issue:`3749`, :issue:`3780`). This is the first step in
+ implementing an interactive mode for ``nfdc`` (:issue:`2542`).
+
+- ``nfd-status`` tool has been merged into ``nfdc`` with a wrapper script provided for backwards
+ compatibility (:issue:`3658`)
+
+- Refactor implementation of RIB Manager to make it uniform with other managers (:issue:`2857`)
+
+- Miscellaneous code refactoring (:issue:`3738`, :issue:`3164`, :issue:`3687`, :issue:`3205`,
+ :issue:`3608`, :issue:`3619`, :issue:`2181`)
+
+- Update WebSocket++ to version 0.7.0 (:issue:`3588`)
+
+- Updates to reflect the latest changes in ndn-cxx library (:issue:`3760`, :issue:`3739`,
+ :issue:`2950`, :issue:`2063`)
+
+Bugfixes
+^^^^^^^^
+
+- Ensure ``NccStrategy`` explores all potential upstreams (:issue:`3411`)
+
+- Add missing processing of NACK in ``pit::Entry::hasUnexpiredOutRecords`` (:issue:`3545`)
+
+- Fix issue with WebSocket-based Face creation when IPv4-mapped IPv6 loopback addresses are
+ considered non-local (:issue:`3682`)
+
+- Make sure that the outgoing Interest pipeline uses the newest in-record when sending out an
+ Interest (:issue:`3642`)
+
+- Properly delete PIT in-record and out-record when face is destroyed (:issue:`3685`)
+
+- Fix ``Pit::find`` leak of ``NameTreeEntry`` (:issue:`3619`)
+
+- Fix ``Pit::erase`` crash when Interest name contains implicit digest (:issue:`3608`)
+
+- Fix use-after-free in ``Rib::erase`` and ``RibManagerFixture::clearRib`` (:issue:`3787`)
+
+Deprecations
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- ``ClientControl`` forwarding strategy. The NextHopFaceId is now honored universally
+ (:issue:`3783`)
+
+- ``StrategyInfoHost::getOrCreateStrategyInfo``, which is renamed to
+ ``StrategyInfoHost::insertStrategyInfo`` (:issue:`3205`)
+
+Deletions
+^^^^^^^^^
+
+- Previously deprecated BroadcastStrategy (:issue:`3206`)
+
+- Unused command-line tool ``nrd`` (:issue:`3570`)
+
+- ``SegmentPublisher`` and ``RibStatusPublisher``, both replaced by ``ndn::Dispatcher``
+ (:issue:`2857`)
+
+- ``CommandValidator``, which has been replaced by ``CommandAuthenticator`` (:issue:`2063`)
