+0.9.1, Nov 4 2005
+  This release brings the long-awaited indentation syntax and a few 
+  bugfixes.
+
+  About 150 SVN commits were made since the last release.
+
+  Language changes:
+    * With the -i option compiler can now recognize indentation based syntax.
+      More info at http://nemerle.org/Indentation-based_syntax
+
+  Additions:
+    * MSBuild task.
+    * Marcin Grzeskowiak contributed a new matching compiler as a part
+      of his MSc thesis. It is not yet enabled by default, as we're
+      still testing it.  You can try it with -new-matching option,
+      but beware -- it can still contain some nasty bugs!
+
+  The library:
+    * Logging and accessor macros were improved.
+    * Group is now also a member of the list variant.
+
+  Bugfixes:
+    * #520: indentation based syntax
+    * #521: high memory usage when compiling mcs tests
+    * #528: runtime assertion failure w/respect to generics
+    * #530: antlr dll isn't compatible with mono 1.1.9
+    * #531: Using generic method inside try-block fails to compile
+    * #532: assertion failed in file typing/Subst.n, line 184
+    * #533: Error using quoted events
+    * #535: Double try in local function optimized to code causes error
+    * #537: Verification fails for nondesc-subseq.n
+    * #539: Failed CheckSTV with monad code
+    * #540: Using void as generic argument causes invalid IL
+    * #541: Requires macro do not work for property setter
+    * #542: Logging macros should allow various logging functions to be
+    	    used (and other improvements)
+    * #543: Compiler gives internal error when trying to output into invalid
+            directory
+    * #544: .NET do not understand 'a ---> 'b implicit conversions
+    * #551: { } brackets in string interpolation crash compiler
+    * #553: Preprocessor symbols accessible from macros API
+    * #554: Assertion about unsupported type for a complex generic hierarchy

 0.9.0, Sep 13 2005
   The biggest change in this version is switch to the .NET 2.0 assemblies.
   The compiler now generates code using runtime generics when parametric
