+Release 1.12 (not released, yet)
+------------
+
+Commons Compress 1.12 is the first version to require Java6 at
+runtime.
+
+Release 1.12 changes the behavior of BZip2CompressorOutputStream's
+finalize method so that it no longer invokes finish. This is going to
+break code that relied on the finalizer to clean up an unfinished
+stream. The code will need to be changed to call finish or close
+itself. Note that a finalizer is not guaranteed to run, so the feature
+was not 100% effective in any case.
+
+New features:
+
+o FramedSnappyCompressorInputStream now supports the dialect of
+ Snappy used by the IWA files contained within the zip archives
+ used in Apple's iWork 13 files.
+ Issue: COMPRESS-352.
+
+Fixed Bugs:
+
+o SevenZFile.read() throws an IllegalStateException for empty entries.
+ Issue: COMPRESS-348.
+o TarArchiveInputStream failed to parse PAX headers that included
+ blank lines.
+ Issue: COMPRESS-355. Thanks to Jeremy Gustie.
+o TarArchiveInputStream failed to parse PAX headers whose tar entry
+ name ended with a slash.
+ Issue: COMPRESS-356. Thanks to Jeremy Gustie.
+
+Changes:
+o Update requirement from Java 5 to 6.
+ Issue: COMPRESS-349.
+o TarArchiveEntry wastefully allocates empty arrays.
+ Issue: COMPRESS-350.
+o Javadoc for BZip2CompressorInputStream(InputStream, boolean) should
+ refer to IOEx, not NPE.
+ Issue: COMPRESS-353.
+o PureJavaCrc32C in the snappy package is now final so it is now safe
+ to call a virtual method inside the constructor.
+ Issue: COMPRESS-354.
+
+o ZipArchiveInputStream and CpioArchiveInputStream could throw
+ exceptions who's messages contained potentially corrupt entry names
+ read from a broken archive. They will now sanitize the names by
+ replacing unprintable characters and restricting the length to 255
+ characters.
+ Issue: COMPRESS-351.
+o BZip2CompressorOutputStream no longer tries to finish the output
+ stream in finalize. This is a breaking change for code that relied
+ on the finalizer.
+ Issue: COMPRESS-357.
+
