+## 2019-12-11 (2.3.0)
+ * Fix default of `create_additions` to always be `false` for `JSON(user_input)`
+   and `JSON.parse(user_input, nil)`.
+   Note that `JSON.load` remains with default `true` and is meant for internal
+   serialization of trusted data. [CVE-2020-10663]
+ * Fix passing args all #to_json in json/add/*.
+ * Fix encoding issues
+ * Fix issues of keyword vs positional parameter
+ * Fix JSON::Parser against bigdecimal updates
+ * Bug fixes to JRuby port
+
+## 2019-02-21 (2.2.0)
+ * Adds support for 2.6 BigDecimal and ruby standard library Set datetype.
+
+## 2017-04-18 (2.1.0)
+ * Allow passing of `decimal_class` option to specify a class as which to parse
+   JSON float numbers.
+## 2017-03-23 (2.0.4)
+ * Raise exception for incomplete unicode surrogates/character escape
+   sequences. This problem was reported by Daniel Gollahon (dgollahon).
+ * Fix arbitrary heap exposure problem. This problem was reported by Ahmad
+   Sherif (ahmadsherif).
+
+## 2017-01-12 (2.0.3)
+ * Set `required_ruby_version` to 1.9
+ * Some small fixes
+
+## 2016-07-26 (2.0.2)
+  * Specify `required_ruby_version` for json\_pure.
+  * Fix issue #295 failure when parsing frozen strings.
+
+## 2016-07-01 (2.0.1)
+  * Fix problem when requiring json\_pure and Parser constant was defined top
+    level.
+  * Add `RB_GC_GUARD` to avoid possible GC problem via Pete Johns.
+  * Store `current_nesting` on stack by Aaron Patterson.
+
+## 2015-09-11 (2.0.0)
+  * Now complies to newest JSON RFC 7159.
+  * Implements compatibiliy to ruby 2.4 integer unification.
+  * Drops support for old rubies whose life has ended, that is rubies < 2.0.
+    Also see https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2014/07/01/eol-for-1-8-7-and-1-9-2/
+  * There were still some mentions of dual GPL licensing in the source, but JSON
+    has just the Ruby license that itself includes an explicit dual-licensing
+    clause that allows covered software to be distributed under the terms of
+    the Simplified BSD License instead for all ruby versions >= 1.9.3. This is
+    however a GPL compatible license according to the Free Software Foundation.
+    I changed these mentions to be consistent with the Ruby license setting in
+    the gemspec files which were already correct now.
