 # Version history
 
-- advertise support for Python 3.11
+## 0.8.0
+
+- Updates recommended RKorAPClient version to 0.8.0
+- Added `textMetadata` KorAPConnection method to retrieve all metadata for a text based on its sigle
+- Added `webUiRequestUrl` column also to corpusStats results, so that also virtual corpus definitions can be linked to / tested directly in the KorAP UI
+- Uses server side tokenized matches in collocation analysis, if supported by KorAP server
+- Unless `metadataOnly` is set, also tokenized snippets are now retrieved in corpus queries 
+  (stored in `res.slots['collectedMatches']['tokens.left']`, `res.slots['collectedMatches']['tokens.match']`, 
+   `res.slots['collectedMatches']['tokens.right']`). Because Pandas data frames cannot store lists, tokens are stored as strings, tab separated.
+
+- Python 3.11 and 3.12 are now supported
+- Python 3.7 support has been dropped (by rpy2 dependency)
 
 ## 0.7.5
