+* Thu Jan 16 2025 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- The release version number has been bumped to 12.0 to avoid confusion
+  with historic 11.x versions.
+- Compiled and released new jar files: monetdb-jdbc-12.0.jre8.jar and
+  jdbcclient.jre8.jar
+
+* Wed Jan  8 2025 Joeri van Ruth <[email protected]>
+- The JDBC jar now includes JdbcClient. For backward compatibility the jar
+  is still also available as jdbcclient.jreX.jar.
+
+* Thu Nov  7 2024 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- In JdbcClient when running the \vsci or \vdbi or \vsi commands, we now
+  suppress "42000 SELECT: insufficient privileges for ..." and
+  "42000 SELECT: access denied for ..." error messages when the connected user
+  does not have 'monetdb' or 'sysadmin' privileges, needed for some validations.
+
+* Wed Jun 19 2024 Joeri van Ruth <[email protected]>
+- Implemented Connection#set/getClientInfo, and send sensible default info
+  at connect time. This can be controlled with the properties 'client_info=on/off',
+  'client_application=ApplicationName' and 'client_remark=Other Useful Info'.
+  Note setting client info requires MonetDB server 11.51 (Aug2024) or higher.
+
+* Thu Apr  4 2024 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- Corrected ResultSetMetaData methods getColumnTypeName(), getPrecision(),
+  getColumnDisplaySize() and ParameterMetaData methods getParameterTypeName()
+  and getPrecision() for the interval data types. They now return
+  more precise information for the 13 possible interval data types.
+
+* Thu Mar  7 2024 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- Improved DatabaseMetaData.getTypeInfo(). It now also returns the serial
+  and bigserial data types and all 13 possible interval data types.
+
+* Thu Dec 28 2023 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- In ResultSet.getObject(column, Class<T> type) and
+  ResultSet.getObject(column, Map<String,Class<?>>) methods added support
+  to return objects for classes: java.time.LocalDate, java.time.LocalDateTime
+  and java.time.LocalTime.
+
+* Wed Dec 20 2023 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- Enhanced DatabaseMetaData.getTables() method by adding support for SQL
+  table type names: 'BASE TABLE', 'GLOBAL TEMPORARY' and 'LOCAL TEMPORARY'
+  in parameter types[].  These are SQL synonyms of MonetDB table type names:
+  'TABLE', 'GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE' and 'LOCAL TEMPORARY TABLE'.
+
+* Thu Dec 14 2023 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- In ResultSet.getObject() method added support for retrieving
+  TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE data as java.time.OffsetDateTime object
+  and TIME WITH TIME ZONE as java.time.OffsetTime object.
+  Also methods ResultSetMetaData.getColumnClassName() and
+  ParameterMetaData.getParameterClassName() now return
+  java.time.OffsetDateTime.class for columns of type TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE
+  and java.time.OffsetTime.class for columns of type TIME WITH TIME ZONE.
+
+* Thu Oct 12 2023 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- Improved DatabaseMetaData.getSystemFunctions(). It now also returns
+  functions: current_sessionid, greatest, ifnull, least, sql_max, sql_min.
+  Function ifnull will only be returned for servers Jun2023 (11.47 or higher).
+
+* Wed Aug  9 2023 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- Implemented ResultSet methods:
+   <T> T getObject(int columnIndex, Class<T> type)
+   <T> T getObject(String columnLabel, Class<T> type)
+  They used to throw an SQLFeatureNotSupportedException.
+
+* Thu Jul  6 2023 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- Removed deprecated nl.cwi.monetdb.*.* classes and package.
+  Those classes were marked deprecated on 12 Nov 2020 from
+  release 3.0 (released on 17 Feb 2021) onwards. It includes:
+   nl.cwi.monetdb.client.JdbcClient.class
+   nl.cwi.monetdb.jdbc.MonetDriver.class
+   nl.cwi.monetdb.jdbc.types.INET.class
+   nl.cwi.monetdb.jdbc.types.URL.class
+   nl.cwi.monetdb.mcl.net.MapiSocket.class
+  These classes are now removed permanently.
+  Use the  org.monetdb.*  equivalents instead.
+
+* Thu Jul  6 2023 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- Removed code to support old MonetDB servers Oct2014 or older. Those
+  old servers did not yet have the system tables: sys.keywords and
+  sys.table_types which are introduced in Jul2015 release. Those system
+  tables are used by MonetDatabaseMetaData methods: getSQLKeywords(),
+  getTableTypes() and getTables(). These 3 methods will now fail when
+  used with those very old MonetDB servers.
+
+* Wed Jul  5 2023 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- Corrected implementation of Connection methods getClientInfo() and
+  setClientInfo(). They used to get/set Connection properties instead of
+  Client Info properties, which was incorrect.
+
+* Thu Jun 22 2023 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- Corrected DatabaseMetaData method getClientProperties().
+  It used to return connection properties instead of client info properties.
+
+* Thu May  4 2023 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
+- Corrected DatabaseMetaData method getStringFunctions() when connected
+  to Jun2023 server. It now includes the string functions from the new
+  txtsim module.
+
 * Thu Feb 23 2023 Martin van Dinther <[email protected]>
 - Compiled and released new jar files: monetdb-jdbc-3.3.jre8.jar and
   jdbcclient.jre8.jar
