+### NSS 3.0.1 (18 December 2023)
+
+- chore: Correct and update README. Several settings were undocumented and new ones have been added.
+- !feat: Corrected a bug where frontend websocket messages had the wrong object structure using `data` instead of `message`. Updated the websocket demo to show this correction.
+- feat: Added `websocket-only.html` which will load basic websocket communications into the page and nothing else when `liveReloading` is set to `false`.
+- !feat: Added the `hostAddress` option and modified `live-reloading.html` and `websocket-only.html` to work with this new option.
+
+BREAKING CHANGES: Technically still compatible with v2 but implementations have changed.

+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
