+
+## RMagick 4.2.2
+
+Bug Fixes:
+
+- Remove deprecation warning about block syntax (#1272)
+
+You are still recommended to use the block parameter instead of `self.` but
+we're silencing the deprecation warning until we can get RMagick's code up to
+that standard.
+
+## RMagick 4.2.1
+
+Bug Fixes:
+
+- Fix compilation with optimization on glibc (#1263)
+
+## RMagick 4.2.0
+
+This adds a deprecation warning when using a block for image operations.
+Instead of setting properties on `self`, you should accept a block argument and
+modify that instead. In a future version we we no longer be binding the block
+to the image.
+

+
+The ImageMagick 7 release is here! This adds beta support for ImageMagick 7.
+Much thanks to **@Watson1978** for getting the ball rolling on this and to
+**@dlemstra** for the extraordinary amount of work and patience that went into
+seeing it through. RMagick should currently behave the same way under IM7 as it
+did under IM6, so please open an issue if you find anything that seems out of
+the ordinary.
+
+## RMagick 4.0.0
+
+This release removes a *lot* of deprecated functionality, so first upgrade to
+3.2 and handle any deprecation warnings you see there before upgrading to 4.0.
+There are a handful of removals that we could not, or forgot to deprecate, so
+pay special attention to those below. This clears the road for ImageMagick 7
+support in the very near future.
+
+Breaking Changes:
+
+- Removed deprecated Image#matte and Image#matte= (#731)
+- Removed deprecated Draw#matte. (#736)
+- Removed deprecated ImageList#fx. (#732)
+- Removed deprecated Info#group and Info#group=. (#733)
+- Removed deprecated KernelInfo#show. (#734)
+- Removed deprecated Pixel#opacity and Pixel#opacity=. (#735)
+- Removed deprecated KernelInfo#zero_nans. (#741)
+- Removed deprecated ImageList#map (#740)
+- Removed deprecated Pixel#from_HSL. (#742)
+- Removed deprecated Image#alpha=. (#739)
+- Removed deprecated Pixel#to_HSL. (#745)
+- Removed deprecated Image#blur and Image#blur=. (#746)
+- Removed deprecated Image#sync_profiles. (#754)
+- Removed deprecated Image#opacity=. (#753)
+- Removed deprecated Image#combine. (#752)
+- Removed deprecated Image#map. (#751)
+- Removed deprecated Image#mask=. (#750)
+- Removed deprecated opacity arguments. (#757)
+- Removed deprecated `OpaqueOpacity` and `TransparentOpacity`. (#765)
+- Removed obsolete enumerations. (#766)
+
+The following changes *did not have deprecation warnings* in 3.2, so you'll
+want to double check that you update your code if you were relying on the
+existing behavior:
+
+- Changed Color#to_s to return an string that contains alpha instead of opacity. (#760)
+- Changed Pixel#to_s to return a string that contains alpha instead of opacity. (#762)
+- Changed Pixel#hash to use alpha instead of opacity. (#763)
+- Changed Pixel#<=> to use alpha instead of opacity. (#764)
+- Removed `BicubicInterpolatePixel` (use `CatromInterpolatePixel` instead) (#768)
+- Removed `FilterInterpolatePixel` (no replacement) (#768)
+- Renamed `NearestNeighborInterpolatePixel` to `NearestInterpolatePixel` (#768)
+
+Enhancements:
+
+- Add SetQuantumOperator (#755)
+
+Bug Fixes:
+
+- Fix SEGV in Image#each_profile (#737)
+
+## RMagick 3.2.0
+
+This is expected to be the final deprecation release before RMagick 4.0. We
+have added loads of deprecation warnings to clear the pathway for ImageMagick 7
+support. Once you've fixed all of them you should be fine to upgrade to version
+4.0 without any pain. There are a small handful of edge cases which we could
+not cleanly deprecate, though they should be extremely rare. These will be
+documented in the 4.0 release. Thanks to @dlemstra for the hard work making
+this release possible.
+
+The biggest change in moving towards RMagick 4.0 will be the fact that
+`opacity` is deprecated in favor of `alpha`.
+
+**NOTE: `opacity` is the opposite of `alpha`!!!**
+
+If you are currently passing opacity into methods, you will need to invert the
+value and use the new `alpha:` keyword argument. If you are passing an integer,
+`alpha = 255 - opacity`. An integer `opacity` of 0 is an `alpha` of 255.
+
+Also, **major kudos to @Watson1978** for enabling Ruby's memory management in
+(#697).  This should go a long way towards improving RMagick's reputation for
+memory usage.
