-0.6.13 (?/??/2013):
--------------------
+0.7.2 (?/??/2013):
+------------------
+
+- Fixed bug that could cause incorrect scanning or even a rEFInd crash when
+  using volume specification in also_scan_dirs token.
+
+- Added protection against loading invalid drivers and other EFI programs.
+  (Some EFIs crash when attempting to load such drivers and programs.)
+
+- Added PreLoader.efi and shim-fedora.efi to default dont_scan_files list;
+  it's now "shim.efi, shim-fedora.efi, PreLoader.efi, TextMode.efi,
+  ebounce.efi, GraphicsConsole.efi, MokManager.efi, HashTool.efi,
+  HashTool-signed.efi".
+
+- Added icon for Funtoo Linux.
+
+- Fixed reading of volume icons from user-specified icons directory, which
+  was broken.
+
+- Fixed handling of /.VolumeBadge.icns (or /.VolumeBadge.png) files, which
+  was broken.
 
+0.7.1 (7/8/2013):
+-----------------
+
+- Fixed build problem with recent development versions of EDK2.
+
+- Added scan for Boot Repair's backup of the Windows boot loader
+  (bkpbootmgfw.efi). If found, give separate entries for it and for
+  bootmgfw.efi, each with its own descriptive text label.
+
+- Fixed also_scan_dirs; used to have bug that caused it to ignore
+  volume specification, if present.
+
+- Fixed bug in driver cache that caused Btrfs driver to hang sometimes.
+
+0.7.0 (6/27/2013):
+------------------
 
+- Added Btrfs signature to rEFInd, so that it can identify the filesystem
+  type for volumes that lack labels.
+
+- Changed some critical filesystem driver pointers from 32-bit to 64-bit.
+  This *SHOULD* enable use of over-2TiB filesystems (for those filesystems
+  that support such large volumes). This capability is largely untested,
+  though.
+
+- Added a cache to the filesystem driver core, and therefore to all the
+  filesystem drivers. This cache greatly improves performance in
+  VirtualBox, and offers modest performance improvements on a few "real"
+  computers. The most dramatic improvement is on ext2/3fs under VirtualBox:
+  Loading a kernel and initrd used to take ~200 seconds on my system, but
+  now takes ~3 seconds! On most "real" hardware, the improvement is much
+  less dramatic -- an improvement of a second or less, presumably because
+  of cacheing within the EFI or on the hard disk itself.
+
+- Filter boot loaders based on a test of their validity; keeps out Linux
+  kernels without EFI stub loader code, loaders for the wrong architecture,
+  non-EFI loaders, etc.
+
+- New Btrfs driver, contributed by Samuel Liao based on GRUB 2.00 Btrfs
+  code.
