+Release notes for i3 v3.β
+-----------------------------
+
+This is the second version (3.β, transcribed 3.b) of i3. It is considered stable.
+
+The most important change probably is the implementation of floating clients,
+primarily useful for dialog/toolbar/popup/splash windows. When using i3 for
+managing floating windows other than the ones mentioned beforehand, please
+keep in mind that i3 is a tiling window manager in the first place and thus
+you might better use a "traditional" window manager when having to deal a
+lot with floating windows.
+
+Now that you’re warned, let’s have a quick glance at the other new features:
+  * jumping to other windows by specifying their position or window class/title
+  * assigning clients to specific workspaces by window class/title
+  * automatically starting programs (such as i3status + dzen2)
+  * configurable colors
+  * variables in configfile
+
+Furthermore, we now have a user’s guide which should be the first document
+you read when new to i3 (apart from the manpage).
+
+Thanks for this release go out to mist, Atsutane, ch3ka, urs, Moredread,
+badboy and all other people who reported bugs/made suggestions.
+
+A list of changes follows:
+
+  * Bugfix: Correctly handle col-/rowspanned containers when setting focus.
+  * Bugfix: Correctly handle col-/rowspanned containers when snapping.
+  * Bugfix: Force reconfiguration of all windows on workspaces which are
+    re-assigned because a screen was detached.
+  * Bugfix: Several bugs in resizing table columns fixed.
+  * Bugfix: Resizing should now work correctly in all cases.
+  * Bugfix: Correctly re-assign dock windows when workspace is destroyed.
+  * Bugfix: Correctly handle Mode_switch modifier.
+  * Bugfix: Don't raise clients in fullscreen mode.
+  * Bugfix: Re-assign dock windows to different workspaces when a workspace
+    is detached.
+  * Bugfix: Fix crash because of workspace-pointer which did not get updated
+  * Implement jumping to other windows by specifying their position or
+    window class/title.
+  * Implement jumping back by using the focus stack.
+  * Implement autostart (exec-command in configuration file).
+  * Implement floating.
+  * Implement automatically assigning clients on specific workspaces.
+  * Implement variables in configfile.
+  * Colors are now configurable.
