+ndn-cxx version 0.7.1
+---------------------
+
+Release date: October 8, 2020
+
+The build requirements have been increased to require Clang >= 4.0, Xcode >= 9.0, and Python >= 3.6.
+Meanwhile, it is *recommended* to use GCC >= 7.4.0 and Boost >= 1.65.1.
+This effectively drops official support for Ubuntu 16.04 when using distribution-provided Boost
+packages -- ndn-cxx may still work on this platform, but we provide no official support for it.
+Additionally, this release drops support for CentOS 7 and adds support for CentOS 8.
+
+New features
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- Signed Interests according to Packet Specification v0.3 (:issue:`4804`)
+
+- Add "in-order" mode to ``SegmentFetcher`` and a corresponding signal that is emitted after each
+ segment is received and validated in segment order. Segments that arrive out-of-order will be
+ buffered internally until all earlier segments have arrived and passed validation.
+
+- Allow ``KeyLocator`` to either identify the full name of a certificate, an unversioned certificate
+ prefix, or the name of a public key (without issuer and version) (:issue:`5115`)
+
+- Allow face MTU to be changed via management (:issue:`5056`)
+

+
+- Change default key type generated by ndnsec to ECDSA
+
+- Use named curve when encoding ECDSA public keys (:issue:`5037`)
+
+- Allow non-default key to be exported for an identity via ``ndnsec-export`` (:issue:`5043`)
+
+- Fix spurious error message from ``ndnsec-key-gen`` when ``key-id`` is specified (:issue:`5057`)
+
+- Provide more fine-grained choices for ``name::UriFormat`` (:issue:`4777`)
+
+- Allow automatic log flushing to be disabled (:issue:`3668`)
+
+- Avoid unnecessarily invalidating cached wire encodings of Data packets
