+subunit release notes
+---------------------
+
+NEXT (In development)
+---------------------
+
+BUG FIXES
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+* Fix incorrect reference to subunit_test_failf in c/README.
+  (Brad Hards, #524341)
+
+* Fix incorrect ordering of tags method parameters in TestResultDecorator. This
+  is purely cosmetic as the parameters are passed down with no interpretation.
+  (Robert Collins, #537611)
+
+0.0.5
+-----
+
+BUG FIXES
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+* make check was failing if subunit wasn't installed due to a missing include
+  path for the test program test_child.
+
+* make distcheck was failing due to a missing $(top_srcdir) rune.
+
+IMPROVEMENTS
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* New filter `subunit-notify` that will show a notification window with test 
+  statistics when the test run finishes.
+
+* subunit.run will now pipe its output to the command in the 
+  SUBUNIT_FORMATTER environment variable, if set.
+
+0.0.4
+-----
+
+BUG FIXES
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+* subunit2junitxml -f required a value, this is now fixed and -f acts as a
+  boolean switch with no parameter.
+
+* Building with autoconf 2.65 is now supported.
+
+
+0.0.3
+-----
+
+  CHANGES:
+  
+    * License change, by unanimous agreement of contributors to BSD/Apache
+      License Version 2.0. This makes Subunit compatible with more testing
+      frameworks.
+
+  IMPROVEMENTS:
+
+    * CPPUnit is now directly supported: subunit builds a cppunit listener
+      ``libcppunit-subunit``. 
+
+    * In the python API ``addExpectedFailure`` and ``addUnexpectedSuccess``
+      from python 2.7/3.1 are now supported. ``addExpectedFailure`` is
+      serialised as ``xfail``, and ``addUnexpectedSuccess`` as ``success``.
+      The ``ProtocolTestCase`` parser now calls outcomes using an extended
+      API that permits attaching arbitrary MIME resources such as text files
+      log entries and so on. This extended API is being developed with the
+      Python testing community, and is in flux. ``TestResult`` objects that
+      do not support the API will be detected and transparently downgraded
+      back to the regular Python unittest API.
+
+    * INSTALLDIRS can be set to control the perl MakeMaker 'INSTALLDIRS'
+      viarable when installing.
+
+    * Multipart test outcomes are tentatively supported; the exact protocol
+      for them, both serialiser and object is not yet finalised. Testers and
+      early adopters are sought. As part of this and also in an attempt to
+      provider a more precise focus on the wire protocol and toolchain, 
+      Subunit now depends on testtools (http://launchpad.net/testtools)
+      release 0.9.0 or newer.
+
+    * subunit2junitxml supports a new option, --forward which causes it
+      to forward the raw subunit stream in a similar manner to tee. This
+      is used with the -o option to both write a xml report and get some
+      other subunit filter to process the stream.
+
+    * The C library now has ``subunit_test_skip``.
+
+  BUG FIXES:
+
+    * Install progress_model.py correctly.
+
+    * Non-gcc builds will no longer try to use gcc specific flags.
+      (Thanks trondn-norbye)
+
+  API CHANGES:
+
+  INTERNALS:
+
+0.0.2
+-----
+
+  CHANGES:
+
+  IMPROVEMENTS:
+
+    * A number of filters now support ``--no-passthrough`` to cause all
+      non-subunit content to be discarded. This is useful when precise control
+      over what is output is required - such as with subunit2junitxml.
+
+    * A small perl parser is now included, and a new ``subunit-diff`` tool
+      using that is included. (Jelmer Vernooij)
+
+    * Subunit streams can now include optional, incremental lookahead
+      information about progress. This allows reporters to make estimates
+      about completion, when such information is available. See the README
+      under ``progress`` for more details.
+
+    * ``subunit-filter`` now supports regex filtering via ``--with`` and
+      ``without`` options. (Martin Pool)
+
+    * ``subunit2gtk`` has been added, a filter that shows a GTK summary of a
+      test stream.
+
+    * ``subunit2pyunit`` has a --progress flag which will cause the bzrlib
+      test reporter to be used, which has a textual progress bar. This requires
+      a recent bzrlib as a minor bugfix was required in bzrlib to support this.
+
+    * ``subunit2junitxml`` has been added. This filter converts a subunit
+      stream to a single JUnit style XML stream using the pyjunitxml
+      python library.
+
+    * The shell functions support skipping via ``subunit_skip_test`` now.
+
+  BUG FIXES:
+
+    * ``xfail`` outcomes are now passed to python TestResult's via
+      addExpectedFailure if it is present on the TestResult. Python 2.6 and
+      earlier which do not have this function will have ``xfail`` outcomes
+      passed through as success outcomes as earlier versions of subunit did.
+
+  API CHANGES:
+
+    * tags are no longer passed around in python via the ``TestCase.tags``
+      attribute. Instead ``TestResult.tags(new_tags, gone_tags)`` is called,
+      and like in the protocol, if called while a test is active only applies
+      to that test. (Robert Collins)
+
+    * ``TestResultFilter`` takes a new optional constructor parameter 
+      ``filter_predicate``.  (Martin Pool)
+
+    * When a progress: directive is encountered in a subunit stream, the
+      python bindings now call the ``progress(offset, whence)`` method on
+      ``TestResult``.
+
+    * When a time: directive is encountered in a subunit stream, the python
+      bindings now call the ``time(seconds)`` method on ``TestResult``.
+
+  INTERNALS:
+
+    * (python) Added ``subunit.test_results.AutoTimingTestResultDecorator``. Most
+      users of subunit will want to wrap their ``TestProtocolClient`` objects
+      in this decorator to get test timing data for performance analysis.
+
+    * (python) ExecTestCase supports passing arguments to test scripts.
+
+    * (python) New helper ``subunit.test_results.HookedTestResultDecorator``
+      which can be used to call some code on every event, without having to
+      implement all the event methods.
+
+    * (python) ``TestProtocolClient.time(a_datetime)`` has been added which
+      causes a timestamp to be output to the stream.
