-0.9.1
+1.0.0-RC1
 
-* `DataSource#set(...)`'s diffing comparators now use the type of items that the data source contains, rather than `Any` 
-(unless of course your data source contains `Any` type of item).
-
-### 0.9.0
-
-* `withItem` requires that you specify the `ViewHolder` type as a generic parameter.
-* Add `getSelectedItems(): List<IT>` method to `SelectableDataSource`.
-* Add `onRecycled {}` method to `ItemDefinition`. 
-
-### 0.8.0
-
-1. Fix a crash caused by stored indices getting out of date as items are removed from the list.
-2. `withItem` can take a custom class name string to support generated model classes, see #11.
-3. Added generic `withSwipeActionOn<>` method to the swipe plugin to target specific item types, see #12.
-4. Internal cleanup and dependency upgrades.

+* Preparing for 1.0.0!
+* Got rid of 'long' swipe actions, at least for now. They don't work well with Android's included APIs.
+* Some housecleaning and upgrades.
