------------------------------
+1.5.0 (Under development)
+-------------------------
+
+
+Added
+^^^^^
+
+
+* New :func:`.util.countRows` function to count the rows (lines) of a file;
+  this is simply a wrapper around the UNIX ``wc`` tool.
+* New :meth:`.DataTable.subtable` and :meth:`.DataTable.merge` methods, to aid
+  in passing data to/from worker processes.
+* Processing functions can now be specified to run independently on a subset
+  of variables by using ``'independent'`` in the variable list.
+
+
+Changed
+^^^^^^^
+
+
+* FUNPACK will now parallelise tasks by default; previously it would only
+  parallelise tasks if ``--low_memory`` mode were selected. Data import, cleaning
+  functions, processing functions, and the ``removeIfRedundant`` process all
+  parallelise their work.
+* The ``--variable``, ``--subject`` and ``--exclude`` options now accept
+  comma-separated mixtures of IDs and MATLAB-style ranges.
+
+
+Deprecated
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+
+* The ``--low_memory`` and ``--work_dir`` options have been deprecated, and no
+  longer have any effect.
