+- Subplot no longer uses `pandoc` at all. This means that
+  output is currently limited to HTML only, and the formatting
+  of that HTML has changed, however this is the first step
+  along the path of being significantly easier to use long-term.
+- Subplot's MSRV has been updated to 1.63 and our plan is to
+  maintain an MSRV of whatever is in Debian's `testing` distribution
+  until Subplot is in Debian.
+- We have updated our crates to the 2021 edition of Rust. This should
+  not affect anyone since the 2021 edition has been supported since
+  1.56 of Rust.

+- Subplot metadata now supports a `pandoc` mapping at the top level
   which provides metadata to be inserted into the Pandoc document

   Paths are expected to be (parts of) paths on the filesystem and

+- Subplotlib steps now handle the `path` type as `&Path`, so steps which
   expect to be given paths should use that, rather than `&str`.
