+Release 2.2-r409 (17 September 2017)
+------------------------------------
+
+This is a feature release. It improves single-end short-read alignment and
+comes with Python bindings. Detailed changes include:
+
+ * Added the **sr** preset for single-end short-read alignment. In this mode,
+   minimap2 runs faster than BWA-MEM, but is slightly less accurate on
+   simulated data sets. Paired-end alignment is not supported as of now.
+
+ * Improved mapping quality estimate with more accurate identification of
+   repetitive hits. This mainly helps short-read alignment.
+
+ * Implemented **mappy**, a Python binding for minimap2, which is available
+   from PyPI and can be installed with `pip install --user mappy`. Python users
+   can perform read alignment without the minimap2 executable.
+
+ * Restructured the indexing APIs and documented key minimap2 APIs in the
+   header file minimap.h. Updated example.c with the new APIs. Old APIs still
+   work but may become deprecated in future.
+
+This release may output alignments different from the previous version, though
+the overall alignment statistics, such as the number of aligned bases and long
+gaps, remain close.
