+
+2Geom v1.1 is not ABI compatible with v1.0, it switches from
+`boost::optional` to `std::optional`.
+
+Changes:
+
+- Add `Geom::Parallelogram`
+- Add `Geom::PathIteratorSink::inPath()`
+- Add `Geom::are_near_rel()` for `Geom::Point`
+- Move headers to `include` directory

+lib2geom v1.0.0
+===============
+
+2geom is a C++ library of mathematics for paths, curves, and other
+geometric calculations, designed to be well suited for vector graphics:
+Bézier curves, conics, paths, intersections, transformations, and basic
+geometries.
+
+Originally developed to restructure and improve path data structures in
+Inkscape, this library's codebase has been maintained and shipped as
+part of the professional vector graphics software for over a decade.
+
+The major contributors to the 2geom library are Nathan Hurst, Michael
+G. Sloan, Krzysztof Kosiński, Johan B. C. Engelen, MenTaLguY, Aaron
+Spike, Marco Cechetti and JF Barraud.
+
+Work on this release has focused on updating the 2geom source control,
+build, test and packaging systems for both Linux and Windows. The py2geom
+python extension package has been restored and improvements have been
+made to overall code stabilization and quality.
+
+The primary motivation for 2geom's 1.0 release is to support a future
+Inkscape 1.0 launch.
+
+With this evolution to a distinct package, the 2geom team is seeking
+new opportunities to collaborate with individuals and projects
+interested in using this proven tool.
