+Release 4.10.0 - March 4th, 2018
+--------------------------------
+
+New features:
+
+* Nuvola introduces a new experimental backend based on Chromium Embedded Framework, which facilitates a switch to audio
+  playback without Flash plugin. At present, only Spotify, Deezer, YouTube, Mixcloud, and BBC iPlayer use the new
+  engine, mostly because these scripts simply does not work with the old WebKitGTK backend. However, the goal of the
+  project is to eventually port all scripts from Flash plugin to HTML5-Audio-based playback.
+
+Enhancements:
+
+* **Amazon Cloud Player 5.6** by Andrew Stubbs: Updated album name extraction, added thumbs up/down actions and fixed
+  compatibility with CEF backend.
+* **BBC iPlayer 1.4** by Andrew Stubbs: Update live TV & radio integration; fixed compatibility with CEF backend.
+* **Deezer 2.8** by Jiří Janoušek: Switched to HTML5 Audio playback instead of the Flash plugin; fixed
+  "Add to Favorite tracks" action.
+* **Micxloud 4.1** adopted by Jiří Janoušek: Ported to support the new interface and added CEF backend requirement.
+* **Spotify 3.0** adopted by Jiří Janoušek: Updated to support new Spotify web player. Requires CEF backend.
+* **YouTube 2.0** adopted by Jiří Janoušek: Fixed metadata parsing and ported to use HTML5 Audio/Video.
+  Requires CEF backend.
+
+Under the hood:
+
+* `Nuvola.parseTimeUsec` now supports negative time specs.
+* Increased requirements: Vala >= 0.38.4.
+* New mandatory dependency: libarchive >= 3.2
+* New optional dependencies: ValaCEF (`--no-cef`), Vala linter (`--no-vala-lint`).
+* Source code was refactored to use a united coding style which is checked with Vala linter.
+* Some configure options were renamed (e.g. `--noxxx` → `--no-xxx`)
+* GIR generation is now optional, you can pass `--no-gir` to disable it.
+* Welcome screen is now shown from App Runner process instead of the Nuvola Service process, which makes start-up
+  faster.
+* App Runner is now installed as `bin/nuvolaruntime` and can be invoked independently on Nuvola Service. However, some
+  features are not available if the service cannot be launched via DBus activation.
+* Nuvola Service lost most of command line parameters and cannot be used to launch scripts with `nuvola -a ID`. Use
+ `nuvolaruntime` instead.
+* The default unique id is now `eu.tiliado.WebRuntime`, which is used consistently.
+* Test scripts from `web_apps` directory are no longer installed. You may install them manually if you deem it
+  necessary.
