+Version 0.3 (03-Jul-2009)
+-------------------------
+
+Changes:
+    - DBus support
+      At a high level there are three pieces. First, the "gjs-dbus" library is
+      a C support library for DBus.  Second, the modules/dbus*.[ch] implement
+      parts of the JavaScript API in C.  Third, the modules/dbus.js file fills
+      out the rest of the JavaScript API and implementation.
+    - Support simple fields for boxed types
+    - Support "copy construction" of boxed types
+    - Support simple structures not registered as boxed
+      - Allow access to nested structures
+      - Allow direct assignment to nested structure fields
+      - Allow enum and flag structure fields
+      - Allow creating boxed wrapper without copy
+    - Support for non-default constructor (i.e. constructors like
+      GdkPixbuf.Pixbuf.new_from_file(file))
+    - Add a Lang.bind function which binds the meaning of 'this'
+    - Add an interactive console gjs-console
+    - Allow code in directory modules (i.e. the code should reside in
+      __init__.js files)
+    - Fix handling of enum/flags return values
+    - Handle non-gobject-registered flags
+    - Add Tweener.registerSpecialProperty to tweener module
+    - Add profiler for javascript code
+    - Add gjs_context_get_all and gjs_dumpstack - useful to invoke from a
+      debugger such as gdb
+    - Support GHashTable
+      - GHashTable return values/out parameters
+      - Support GHashTable 'in' parameters
+      - Convert JSON-style object to a GHashTable
+    - Add support for UNIX shebang (i.e. #!/usr/bin/gjs-console)
+    - Support new introspection short/ushort type tags
+    - Support GI_TYPE_TAG_FILENAME
+    - Improve support for machine-dependent integer types and arrays of
+      integers
+    - Fix several memory leaks
