+ └──────────────────────────────┘
+
+This is the second release of the new major version of i3, v4.2. It is
+considered stable. All users of i3 are strongly encouraged to upgrade.
+
+A big change with this release is (again) a new parser for commands. You might
+get the impression that we like rewriting parsers, but check the commit message
+of commit a532f5a for rationale on this decision.
+
+A more visible change to users is the introduction of a scratchpad command:
+This is useful to have a permanent editor session ready whenever you need it.
+Or your music player. Or email client? Or $programming-language REPL? Give it a
+try!
+
+Also, you are finally able to move workspaces between the different outputs if
+you are using multiple monitors. You can rename workspaces on the fly and
+identify named workspaces by their number. So you can rename "1: www" to "1:
+code" with one simple rename command and all your keybindings will still work.
+
+A subtle indicator of the split state of containers has been introduced: In
+case you are in a split container with precisely one window (a situation which
+you could not recognize by looking at your screen previously), i3 will
+highlight the bottom/right border of the split container in a lighter blue.
+This should reduce confusion about whether you are dealing with a split
+container or not.
+
+And finally, i3bar now supports a JSON input protocol, so that with a
+subsequent release of i3status, you will be able to use colors in your bar!
