 Overview of changes in Cairo 1.100
 ==================================
 
+Since 1.08x (the previous stable series)
+----------------------------------------
+* Make "use Cairo x.yyy" work.  This required renaming the old
+  Cairo::VERSION, a wrapper for CAIRO_VERSION, to Cairo::LIB_VERSION --
+  but we kept the old way of calling it working.  Cairo::version,
+  Cairo::version_string and Cairo::VERSION_ENCODE got the same treatment
+  for consistency.
+* Auto-upgrade strings to utf8.  Note that this means that calling
+  utf8::encode() on strings before passing them into Cairo will now
+  yield doubly-encoded and thus broken strings.  Also, having
+  utf8-encoded literals in your code without an accompanying "use utf8"
+  line will also lead to double encoding.
+* Expand and improve the README and META.yml files.
+* Many compilation and test suite fixes.
+
+Since 1.091
+-----------
 * Do not assume that sizeof(void*) == sizeof(long)
 * Calculate a string length more efficiently
 * added updated README text for RT#74870
