+# 2024-02-22 Version 3.3.0
+
+This release concentrates on code cleanup and overall quality improvements.
+Some usability issues and inconvenient API functions were fixed on the way.
+
+New features have been introduced (better image clipboard) but that stays
+deactivated by default as we´re in a stable series.
+
+Check the new CMake options:
+* PLUGIN_ABS_PATHS_DEFAULT disables loading of external channels from all
+ but a specified absolute plugin directory defined by FREERDP_PLUGIN_PATH
+* WINPR_UTILS_IMAGE_PNG enables PNG support with libpng in winpr image/clipboard
+* WITH_LODEPNG enables PNG support with lodepng library in winpr image/clipboard
+* WINPR_UTILS_IMAGE_WEBP enables WEBP support in winpr image/clipboard
+* WINPR_UTILS_IMAGE_JPEG enables JPEG support in winpr image/clipboard
+* USE_EXECINFO enables or disables backtrace support with execinfo
+* WITH_WEBVIEW now defaults to OFF on windows, apple and android (not implemented)
+
+Noteworthy changes:
+* Improved image clipboard (xfreerdp, wlfreerdp) (#9873, #9826)
+* Improved SDL client (#9875, #9887, #9883, #9878, #9792)
+* Allow plugin loader to only use absolute paths (#9809)

+For a complete and detailed change log since the last release run:
+git log 3.2.0...3.1.0
+
+# 2023-12-22 Version 3.1.0
+
+A new 3.1.0 minor release for the new 3.0.0 series.
+This contains bugfixes, adds (better) support for libressl and mbedtls and
+brings a bunch of improvements for the SDL client.
+
+This comes with a price though, we now (optionally) require SDL_image if you
+want to build the sdl-client
+
+Since there are multiple new features, some new files (man pages) and new
+optional dependencies we´ve directly incremented the minor version.
+
+New CMake options:
+* SDL_USE_COMPILED_RESOURCES (default ON) builds fonts and images into SDL
+ client. Set to OFF to install these resources as files. (was already part of
+ 3.0.0, but worth mentioning here)
+* WITH_SDL_IMAGE_DIALOGS (default OFF) Show some nice icons for SDL client
+ connection dialogs. Requires SDL_image for build.
+* WITH_BINARY_VERSIONING (default OFF) Similar as for libraries the binaries,
+ manpages and resource locations created by FreeRDP project are postfixed
+ with the API version. Recommended if packagers want to install the package
+ alongside FreeRDP 2 without conflicts.
+* RDTK_FORCE_STATIC_BUILD (default OFF) Build and link RDTK statically into
+ shadow server. Recommended for packagers as this library is not really used
+ outside of FreeRDP-shadow.
+* UWAC_FORCE_STATIC_BUILD (default OFF) Build and link UWAC statically into
+ wlfreerdp. Recommended for packagers as this library is not really used
+ outside of wlfreerdp.
+
+Noteworthy changes:
+* Fix a nasty bug with relative mouse movement (#9677)
+* LibreSSL support enhancements (#9691, #9670)
+* mbedTLS support enhancements (#9662)
+* Improve building on mac OS (#9641)
+* New and improved manpages (#9690, #9650)
+* Unify CMake common options, add (optional) binary versioning and allow
+ building rdtk and uwac as static dependencies (#9695)
+* SDL client improvements (#9693, #9657, #9659, #9683, #9680, #9657, #9664,
+ #9656)
+
+For a complete and detailed change log since the last release run:
+git log 3.1.0...3.0.0
+
+# 2023-12-12 Version 3.0.0
+
+Final 3.0.0 release just a little over two weeks after the last 3.0.0-rc0.
+This contains bugfixes, drops some legacy code, implements a small feature
+request and adds some improvements to the build system.
+
+Most notably is the new PreventInSourceBuilds.cmake which does exactly what
+the name implies, it aborts builds where source equals build directory.
+If you can not use out of source tree builds for some reason, you can
+circumvent this measure with the CMake setting -DALLOW_IN_SOURCE_BUILD=ON
+
+Noteworthy changes:
+* add support for AF_VSOCK #9561
+* xfreerdp drop X11 GDI implementation #9492
+* fixed connection freeze with childSession #9594
+* fixed relative mouse input issues #9608
+* fixed issues with drive redirection #9610
+* simplified mac build #9601
+* fixed TSMF to build again #9603
+* fixed command line /gfx parsing bug #9598
+* prevent in source tree build #9550
+* fixed various issues with settings #9595, #9596
+* add E2K cpu support in WinPR #9599
+* fixed wfreerdp DPI settings when used as embedded window #9593
+* android add mouse hover support #9495

+
+Nearly 2 months of testing, bugfixing and API refinements later we´re
+happy to announce the first release candidate for FreeRDP 3.0
+The API should now be considered stable and only minor changes (if at all)
+will happen from this point on, so every project using FreeRDP can check
+compatibility with upcoming 3.0

+
+We are pleased to announce the first beta release for the next stable 3.0
+series of FreeRDP. It has been a huge endeavour to implement all the new
+shiny bells and whistles as well as clean up the code base and we´re still
+ironing out some smaller glitches.
+This is the first API breaking change since the 2.0 series and there are
+some adjustments to be made for existing applications.
+See https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/wiki/FreeRDP3-migration-notes for
+help (still incomplete)
+
+Noteworthy changes:
+* Support for AAD/AVD authentication
+* Support for websocket transport
+* Support smartcard authentication (TLS and NLA)
+* Full smartcard emulation support (login with certificate + key)
+* Rewritten proxy, new module API
+* New reference client based on SDL2 (work in progress)
+* Rewritten logging, now parsing issues are all writing to the log so
+ that issues with protocol incompatibilities can be easier analyzed
+ by just turning on logging
+* Full OpenSSL 3 support
+* Internal implementations for RC4, MD4 and MD5 (required for non critical
+ parts in RDP but not part of more recend SSL libraries)
+* Updated RDP protocol support
+* Improved xfreerdp remote app support
+* Reworked internal state machine for both client and server implementations
+* Server implementations can now make use of connect-time network autodetection
+* Improved clipboard handling, now also support server-to-client file transfer
+ (currently xfreerdp only)
+* EnhancedRemoteApp support: Utilizing the more modern standard allows remote
+ apps with less glitches and window shadows
+* Added client- and server-side handling for RDSTLS
+* Support for the graphics redirection channel
