-## Unreleased
-New release of Oragono!
+## [0.8.1] - 2017-06-26
+Lots of quality-of-life fixes, improved oversight for opers, and a proposed channel renaming command!
 
-### Config Changes
+With this release, we're moving to a proper [Github organisation](https://github.com/oragono), becoming more consistent with other IRCds, and introducing a bunch more snomasks. In addition, when setting `DLINE` and `KLINE` bans, you can also kill all clients who match the ban by supplying the parameter `ANDKILL` when you set the ban.
 
-### Security
+Channel `LIST` filtering is now more useful, and I'll keep expanding this in future releases. As well, there's been some useful extensions to `WHOIS`, and a bug with `SANICK` fixed thanks to @lbeziaud. @enckse has also added Oragono to the Arch AUR, to make it easier to install on that distro.
+
+Thanks to everyone for suggesting improvements and reporting issues! There's a lot to do as we move forward, and I have a pretty decent plan of where to go next.
 
 ### Added
 * Added proposed channel rename capability [draft/rename](https://github.com/ircv3/ircv3-specifications/pull/308).
