If you're upgrading from a previous release, please read it
carefully, or at least skim over it.
+0.6.1
+=====
+
+This is a short, bugfix release.
+
+**Do this to upgrade**
+
+1. Update to the latest release. If checked out from git, run:
+ ``git fetch && git checkout -q v0.6.1``
+2. Make sure to run
+ ``./bin/python setup.py develop --upgrade && ./bin/gmg dbupdate``
+
+This release switches the default terms of service to be off by
+default and corrects some mistakes in the default terms of service.
+
+Turning the terms of service on is very easy, just set ``show_tos`` in
+the ``[mediagoblin]`` section of your config to ``true``.
+
+
+0.6.0
+=====
+
+**Do this to upgrade**
+
+1. Update to the latest release. If checked out from git, run:
+ ``git fetch && git checkout -q v0.6.0``
+2. Make sure to run
+ ``./bin/python setup.py develop --upgrade && ./bin/gmg dbupdate``
+
+That's it, probably! If you run into problems, don't hesitate to
+`contact us <http://mediagoblin.org/pages/join.html>`_
+(IRC is often best).
+
+This tool has a lot of new tools for administrators, hence the
+nickname "Lore of the Admin"!
+
+**New features:**
+
+- New tools to control how much users can upload, both as a general
+ user limit, or per file.
+
+ You can set this with the following options in your mediagoblin
+ config file: `upload_limit` and `max_file_size`. Both are integers
+ in megabytes.
+
+ There is an option to control how much each individual user can
+ upload too, though an interface for this is not yet exposed. See
+ the "uploaded" field on the core__users table.
+
+- MediaGoblin now contains an authentication plugin for ldap! You
+ can turn on the mediagoblin.plugins.ldap plugin to make use of
+ this. See the documentation: :ref:`ldap-plugin`
+
+- There's a new command line upload tool! At long last! See
+ `./bin/gmg addmedia --help` for info on how to use this.
+
+- There's now a terms of service document included in MediaGoblin.
+ It's turned on by default, but you can turn it off if you prefer,
+ just set the configuration option of `show_tos` in the [mediagoblin]
+ section of your config to false.
+
+ Alternately, you can override the template for the terms of service
+ document to set up your own.
+
+- We have a lot of new administrative tooling features!
+ - There's a built-in privileges/permissions system now.
+ Administrators are given access to modifying these parameters
+ from a user administration panel.
+ - Users can submit reports about other problematic users or media
+ and administrators are given tools to resolve said reports and
+ ban/unban users if needed.
+
+- New version of video.js is included with MediaGoblin. Slight
+ amount of skinning to match the MediaGoblin look, otherwise also
+ uses the new default skin.
+
+Developer-oriented changes:
+
+- New developer tool for quickly setting up a development environment
+ in `devtools/make_example_database.sh`. Requires doing a checkout
+ of our other tool `mg_dev_environments <https://gitorious.org/mediagoblin/mg-dev-environments/>`_
+ (probably in the parent Directory) though!
+- A "foundations" framework has entered into the codebase.
+ This is mostly just relevant to coders, but it does mean that it's
+ much easier to add database structures that need some entries filled
+ automatically by default.
+- Refactoring to the authentication code and the reprocessing code
+
+
+0.5.1
+=====
+
+v0.5.1 is a bugfix release... the steps are the same as for 0.5.1.
+
+**Bugfixes:**
+
+- python 2.6 compatibility restored
+- Fixed last release's release notes ;)
+
0.5.0
