+-----------------
+
+Release Date
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- 2016-06-30
+
+
+General
+^^^^^^^
+
+- Autocomplete: add GET flag support to show/hide active users on autocomplete,
+  also display this information in autocomplete data.  ref #3374
+- Gravatar: add flag to show current gravatar + user as disabled user (non-active)
+- Repos, repo groups, user groups: allow to use disabled users in owner field.
+  This fixes #3374.
+- Repos, repo groups, user groups: visually show what user is an owner of a
+  resource, and if potentially he is disabled in the system.
+- Pull requests: reorder navigation on repo pull requests, fixes #2995
+
+New Features
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- My account: made pull requests aggregate view for users look like not
+  created in 1995. Now uses a consistent look with repo one.
+- emails: expose profile link on registation email that super-admins receive.
+  Implements #3999.
+- Social auth: move the buttons to the top of nav so they are easier to reach.
+
+
+Security
+^^^^^^^^
+
+- Encryption: allow to pass in alternative key for encryption values. Now
+  users can use `rhodecode.encrypted_values.secret` that is alternative key,
+  de-coupled from `beaker.session` key.
+- Encryption: Implement a slightly improved AesCipher encryption.
+  This addresses issues from #4036.
+- Encryption: encrypted values now by default uses HMAC signatures to detect
+  if data or secret key is incorrect. The strict checks can be disabled using
+  `rhodecode.encrypted_values.strict = false` .ini setting
+
+
+Performance
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- Sql: use smarter JOINs when fetching repository information
+- Helpers: optimize slight calls for link_to_user to save some intense queries.
+- App settings: use computed caches for repository settings, this in some cases
+  brings almost 4x performance increase for large repos with a lot of issue
+  tracker patterns.
+
+
+Fixes
+^^^^^
+
+- Fixed events on user pre/post create actions
+- Authentication: fixed problem with saving forms with errors on auth plugins
+- Svn: Avoid chunked transfer for Subversion that caused checkout issues in some cases.
+- Users: fix generate new user password helper.
+- Celery: fixed problem with workers running action in sync mode in some cases.
+- Setup-db: fix redundant question on writable dir. The question needs to be
+  asked only when the dir is actually not writable.
+- Elasticsearch: fixed issues when searching single repo using elastic search
+- Social auth: fix issues with non-active users using social authentication
+  causing a 500 error.
