+Release notes for i3 v3.ε-bf2
+-----------------------------
+
+This is the second bugfix release (bf1) for version 3.ε of i3. Current
+development focuses on the tree branch which contains a major refactoring.
+Because (as usual) there are still bugs in the stable versions, though, we
+felt it was a good idea to have this bugfix release.
+
+This release contains only bugfixes and is considered stable.
+
+All users of older versions are encouraged to upgrade as soon as possible.
+
+Thanks for this release go out to fernandotcl, Marcus, Stefan, dbp, quaec.
+

+
+  * Bugfix: Don’t crash when a dock client starts up with nonsense coordinates
