 # OSBuild Composer - Operating System Image Composition Services
 
+## CHANGES WITH 9:
+
+        * Fedora is now build with updates and modules repositories
+         enabled, therefore up-to-date images are now produced.
+         
+        * A new man-page `osbuild-composer(7)` with high-level
+         description of the project is now available. It can be built
+         by the new man target in the Makfile.
+         
+        * All Fedora images have now a generic initramfs. This should
+         make the images more reproducible and less likely failing to boot
+         if the image build was done in a less usual environment.
+         
+        * Metalink is now used to access the Fedora repositories. This change
+         should hopefully lead to more stable builds.
+
+        * Composer is now released to Fedora 32 and 33 in a new
+         osbuild-composer package. The old golang-github-osbuild-composer
+         package will be automatically upgraded to the new one.
+
+        * The internal osbuild-pipeline command now has a more user-friendly
+         interface.
+
+        * The RCM API (in development, experimental) is reworked to allow
+         any distribution-architecture-image type combination.
+
+        * The work on a high-level description of image types began.
+         See image-types directory.
+         
+        * The osbuild-worker arguments are reworked, they are now much more
+         flexible.
+         
+        * The image-info tool used in the integration tests can be now run
+         on Fedora 32.
+         
+        * The unit test coverage is now much bigger, thanks to all
+         contributors!
+         
+        * Internal distribution representation is significantly reworked,
+         this simplifies the process of adding the support for all currently
+         missing architectures.
+         
+        * Integration tests were also improved, the image tests are fully
+         switched to the new Go implementation and an automatic way
+         of generating test cases is added. The weldr API coverage is also
+         much better. Several bugs in it were fixed in the process.
+         
+        * Codecov.io is now used to monitor the test coverage of the code.
+         
+        * As always, minor fixes and improvements all over the place.
+

+                            Ondřej Budai, Tom Gundersen
