+* inline object definitions removed in favor of [apply](#apply) rules
+* [import](#template-imports) keyword instead of `inherits` keyword for all objects

+* add documentation about [cluster scenarios](#cluster-scenarios)
+* Livestatus: add `check_source` attribute to services table
+* Compat: Fix host service order for Classic UI
+* Remove comments when clearing acknowledgements
+* Recovery [Notifications](#objecttype-notification) require StateFilterOK
+
+#### Changes
+
+> **Note**
+>
+> Configuration updates required!
+
+* removed deprecated `var`/`set` identifier, use [const](#const) instead
+* [constants.conf](#constants-conf) needs to be included in [icinga2.conf](#icinga2-conf) before [ITL](#itl) inclusion
+* [import](#template-imports) instead of `inherits` (examples in [localhost.conf](#localhost-conf))
+* [apply](#apply) rules instead of inline definitions for [Service](#objecttype-service),
+[Dependency](#objecttype-dependency), [Notification](#objecttype-notitifcation),
+[ScheduledDowntime](#objecttype-scheduleddowntime) objects (examples in [localhost.conf](#localhost-conf)).
+* unknown attributes and duplicate objects generate a configuration error
+* DB IDO: schema update for 0.0.9 ([MySQL](#upgrading-mysql-db), [PostgreSQL](#upgrading-postgresql-db))
+
+
+### What's New in Version 0.0.8
+
+* Add [Dependency](#objecttype-dependency) object for advanced host/service dependency definition
+* Add optional [NodeName](#global-constants) for cluster feature
+* Populate check_source attribute with the checker's node name
+* [Cluster](#objecttype-endpoint) supports recursive config includes
+* Add [Cluster health check](#cluster-health-check)
+* Add more performance data to the [Icinga health check](#itl-icinga)
+* Add [IcingaStatusWriter](#objecttype-icingastatuswriter) feature writing a status json file
+* Smoother pending service checking during startup
+* Reduce virtual memory usage
+* Stack traces include file names and line numbers
+* Treat script variables as constants preventing override
+* Fix pending services are being checked with the retry interval
+* DB IDO: Fix deleted objects are not marked as is_active=0
+* DB IDO: additional fields for cluster/checker nodes
+
+#### Changes
+* {host,service}_dependencies attributes have been changed to [Dependency](#objecttype-dependency)
+objects supporting new attributes: `disable_checks`, `disable_notifications`, `state_filter`,
+`period`. For better readability, there is `parent_service` and `child_service` for example.
+
+> **Note**
+>
+> Update your existing configuration!
+
+* DB IDO: Schema updates for 0.0.8: [MySQL](#upgrading-mysql-db) [PostgreSQL](#upgrading-postgresql-db)
+
+
+### What's New in Version 0.0.7
+
+* DB IDO performance improvements on startup
+* Fix notification_id handling in DB IDO
+* More automated tests (based on the Vagrant VM)
+* New documentation chapters
+
+### What's New in Version 0.0.6
+
+* Scheduled Downtimes as configuration object (also known as "Recurring Downtimes").
+* Log command arguments

+* Livestatus History Table performance improvements
+
+#### Changes
+* Generated object names (host with services array) use an exclamation mark instead of a colon
+as separator. State file objects with downtimes, comments, etc are invalid (unknown) for that
+reason.
+* Script variables are set using 'var' and 'const' instead of the previous 'set' identifier
+* ITL constants are now embedded in libicinga
+* Removed the ConsoleLogger object and keep the default console log enabled until we daemonize
