+ndn-cxx version 0.2.0
+---------------------
+
+Release date: August 25, 2014
+
+Changes since version 0.1.0:
+
+New features:
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- **Base**
+
+ + The license under which the library is released is changed to **Lesser GNU Public
+ License version 3.0**.
+
+ + New ways to use incoming Interest dispatching:
+
+ * New :ndn-cxx:`InterestFilter` abstraction that supports filtering based on name
+ prefixes and regular expressions.
+
+ * Separated :ndn-cxx:`Face::registerPrefix()` and :ndn-cxx:`Face::setInterestFilter()`
+ methods allow distinct operations of registering with the local NDN forwarder and setting
+ up application-specific ``OnInterest`` call dispatch using InterestFilters.
+
+ + Add support for new `NDN naming conventions
+ <http://named-data.net/doc/tech-memos/naming-conventions.pdf>`_ (:issue:`1761`)
+
+- **Security**
+
+ + Add ``type dir`` :ref:`trust-anchor in ValidatorConfig <validator-conf-trust-anchors>`
+ to add all certificates under the specified directory as trust anchors.
+ The new option also allow periodic reloading trust anchors, allowing dynamic trust
+ models.
+
+ + Added support for multiple signature types to :ndn-cxx:`PublicKey`,
+ :ndn-cxx:`SecPublicInfo` abstractions
+
+ + New :ndn-cxx:`SignatureSha256WithEcdsa` signature type
+
+ + Updates in :ndn-cxx:`Signature` data structure to reflect changes in `NDN-TLV spec
+ 0.1.1 <http://named-data.net/doc/NDN-TLV/0.1.1/>`_
+
+- **Wire encoding**
+
+ + :ndn-cxx:`Data::getFullName() <getFullName()>` method to get :ndn-cxx:`Data` packet
+ name with implicit digest
+
+ + New :ndn-cxx:`Name::getSuccessor()` method to get name successor (:issue:`1677`)
+
+ + New in-wire refreshing of Interest's nonce (:issue:`1758`)
+
+- **Management**
+
+ + Support for :ndn-cxx:`ChannelStatus`, :ndn-cxx:`StrategyChoice` datasets
+
+ + Defining new common Route Origins for NFD RIB management protocol (:issue:`1719`)
+
+ + New RibEntry and Route data structures for RIB management protocol (:issue:`1764`)
+
+ + Add support for RIB flags for setInterestFilter and registerPrefix (:issue:`1842`)
+
+- **Miscellaneous tools**
+
+ + Introduce :ndn-cxx:`Scheduler::cancelAllEvents` to cancel all previously scheduled events
+ (:issue:`1757`)
+
+ + Introduce :ndn-cxx:`util::EventEmitter`, :ndn-cxx:`util::NotificationSubscriber`,
+ :ndn-cxx:`util::NotificationStream`, and :ndn-cxx:`nfd::FaceMonitor` utility classes
+
+ + Introduce :ndn-cxx:`util::SegmentFetcher` helper class to fetch multi-segmented data
+ (:issue:`1879`)
+
+- **Build**
+
+ + enabled support of precompiled headers for clang and gcc compilers to speed up compilation
+
+Updates and bug fixes:
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- **Base**
+
+ + Serialization of socket write operations (:issue:`1707`)
+
+ + Enforcing limit on Interest and Data packet size in :ndn-cxx:`Face::expressInterest` and
+ :ndn-cxx:`Face::put` methods (:issue:`1774`)
+
+ + Cleaning up transport state on communication failure, so Face can try to reconnect
+ in the future.
+
+ + Fix bug with Face::removePendingInterest (:issue:`1917`)
+
+- **Wire encoding**
+
+ + Nonce field is now encoded as 4-byte uint8_t value, as defined by NDN-TLV spec.
+
+ + Optimized Data packet signing
+
+ :ndn-cxx:`KeyChain::sign` method now pre-allocates :ndn-cxx:`EncodingBuffer`, requests
+ unsigned portion of :ndn-cxx:`Data` using ``Data::wireEncode(EncodingBuffer, true)``,
+ and then appends the resulting signature and prepends :ndn-cxx:`Data` packet header.
+ This way there is no extra memory allocation after :ndn-cxx:`Data` packet is signed.
+
+ + Optimized implicit digest calculation in :ndn-cxx:`Interest::matchesData` method
+ (:issue:`1769`)
+
+- **Management**
+
+ + Add link-layer byte counts in FaceStatus data structure (:issue:`1765`)
+
+- **Security**
+
+ + Allow user to explicitly specify the cert name prefix before 'KEY' component in
+ ``ndnsec-certgen``
+
+ + ``SignatureSha256`` has been renamed to :ndn-cxx:`DigestSha256` to conform with
+ `NDN-TLV specification <http://named-data.net/doc/ndn-tlv/>`_.
+
+ + Add checking of ``Timestamp`` and ``Nonce`` fields in signed Interest within
+ :ndn-cxx:`ValidatorConfig`
+
+ + Allow validator customization using hooks:
+
+ Sub-classes of :ndn-cxx:`Validator` class can use the following hooks to fine-tune the
+ validation process:
+
+ * :ndn-cxx:`Validator::preCertificateValidation <preCertificateValidation>` to
+ process received certificate before validation.
+ * :ndn-cxx:`Validator::onTimeout <onTimeout>` to process interest timeout
+ * :ndn-cxx:`Validator::afterCheckPolicy <afterCheckPolicy>` to process validation requests.
+
+ + Fix memory issues in :ndn-cxx:`SecPublicInfoSqlite3`
+
+- **Miscellaneous tools**
+
+ + Redefine method for random number generation: ``random::generateWord*`` and
+ ``random::generateSecureWord*`` to generate cryptographically non-secure (fast) and
+ secure (slow) random numbers.
+
+- Other minor fixes and corrections
+
+Deprecated:
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- ``SignatureSha256`` class, use :ndn-cxx:`DigestSha256` instead.
+
+- All :ndn-cxx:`Face` constructors that accept ``shared_ptr<io_service>``.
+
+ Use versions that accept reference to ``io_service`` object.
+
+- ``Face::ioService`` method, use :ndn-cxx:`Face::getIoService` instead.
+
+- :ndn-cxx:`Interest` constructor that accepts name, individual selectors, and individual
+ guiders as constructor parameters.
+
+ Use ``Interest().setX(...).setY(...)`` or use the overload taking ``Selectors``
+
+- ``name::Component::toEscapedString`` method, use :ndn-cxx:`name::Component::toUri` instead.
+
+- ``SecPublicInfo::addPublicKey`` method, use :ndn-cxx:`SecPublicInfo::addKey` instead.
+
+- ``Tlv::ConentType`` constant (typo), use ``Tlv::ContentType`` instead.
+
+- ``CommandInterestGenerator`` and ``CommandInterestValidator`` utility classes.
+ :ndn-cxx:`ValidatorConfig` should be used instead.
+
+Removed:
+^^^^^^^^
+
+- support of ndnd-tlv (only NFD management protocol is supported now)
+
+- ``SecPublicInfoMemory`` and ``SecTpmMemory`` classes that were no longer used
+
+- Removing concept of periodic event from :ndn-cxx:`Scheduler`.
+
+ In applications, periodic events should be just re-scheduled within the callback for
+ single-shot events.
