+## 3.4.0b9 (2023-11-12)
 
 ### Compatibility
 
 - Drop support for python 3.7. ([#1173])
 - Officially support python 3.12. ([#1167])
 - Remove pin on `werkzeug<3`. ([#1172], [#1171])
 
-### Features
+### Refactorings
+
+This release includes a significant continuation of refactoring of the
+code in `lektor.imagetools` which started in [#1104]:
+
+- We now use Pillow to access image file metadata (e.g. dimensions,
+  format, and EXIF tags). This replaces some homegrown code for
+  reading basic image metadata and `exifread` for EXIF tag access.
+
+- Some internal API has been cleaned up.
+
+- Compatibility with various versions of Pillow has been increased.
+
+See [#1138] for details.
+
+### Features Removed
+
+- Removed `--no-reload` option to the `lektor server` command. This was added in 3.4.0b4 as part of #1027 and seems no longer necessary since now live-reload can be disabled on a per-window bases (see #1164).
+
+### Features Added
 
 - Added Turkish translation. Thank you [\@uyar]! ([#1157])
 
+#### Admin GUI
+
+- Replace the _“Edit Pencil”_ with a toolbar containing both an _Edit_
+  button and a toggle that can be used to disable
+  _Live-reload_. ([#1164])
+
 ### Bugs Fixed
 
+#### Admin GUI
+
+- Use a real link (`<a href=...`) for the "Return to Website" button. ([#1164])
+
 #### Jinja Globals
 
 - Fix `bag()` to object the pad from `site` in the Jinja context, rather than from the Lektor build context. ([#1155])
