 # OSBuild Composer - Operating System Image Composition Services
 
+## CHANGES WITH 15:
+
+  * Support for building RHEL for Edge is now available.
+
+  * Composer has now support for building QCOW2 and tar images for ppc64le and
+    s390x architectures.
+    
+  * Tar images for RHEL have returned. The Image Builder team found out that
+    they are used as a way to install RHEL for Satellite.
+
+  * Blueprints containing packages with a wildcard version no longer causes
+    the built image to have both x86_64 and i686 versions of one package
+    installed.
+  
+  * GPG check is now disabled by default. If you have a custom
+    repository in /etc/osbuild-composer/repositories, just set gpg_check
+    to true to enable the check. Note that all the pre-defined repositories
+    have GPG check enabled.
+    
+  * Composer now supports a cancellation of jobs. This can be done by calling
+    /compose/cancel route of Weldr API.
+   
+  * osbuild-composer previously crashed when osbuild didn't return the right
+    machine-readable output (e.g. because of a disk being out of space). This
+    is now fixed.
+    
+  * Because of the GPG check change and RHEL for Edge support, composer
+    now requires osbuild 17 or higher.
+    
+  * osbuild-composer previously required the python package to be installed
+    on RHEL. Now, it uses the always-installed platform-python.
+
+  * The buildroot for RHEL 8 didn't have selinux labels before. This is now
+    fixed.
+    
+  * When Composer crashed, it left temporary directories in /var/cache. The
+    temporary directories are now moved to /var/tmp, which is managed by
+    systemd with PrivateTmp set to true, so they're now correctly removed
+    after a crash.
+    
+  * Several weldr API routes were aligned to work in the same way as with
+    Lorax. /blueprints/freeze now correctly supports option to output TOML.
+    Projects and modules routes return all fields as Lorax returns.
+
+  * AWS upload now logs the current state to the system journal. Emojis are
+    of course included. 🎉
+    
+  * As always, amazing improvements in the CI infrastructure happened. Also,
+    the test coverage went up. Thanks all for doing this!
