+7.0
+---
+* Fixed invalid behaviour where SET OF allowed multiple objects with the
+  same tag to be successfully decoded
+* Fixed possibly invalid SET DER encoding where objects were not sorted
+  by tag, but by encoded representation
+* ``Any`` does not allow empty data value now. Now it checks if it has
+  valid ASN.1 tag
+* ``Any`` allows an ordinary ``Obj`` storing, without its forceful
+  encoded representation storage
+* Initial support for so called ``evgen_mode``: event generation mode,
+  where no in-memory objects storing happens, giving ability to process
+  ASN.1 data without fully parsing it first
+* Initial experimental CER encoding mode, allowing streaming encoding of
+  the data directly to some writeable object
+* Ability to use mmap-ed memoryviews to skip files loading to memory
+
+.. _release6.3:
+
+6.3
+---
+* Fixed workability under Python 3.5. Previously only 2.7 and 3.6
+  versions were tested
+
+.. _release6.2:
+
+6.2
+---
+* Python ``int()``'s accepts even more various non-decimal characters
+  than expected. Make validation fully strict in UTCTime and
+  GeneralizedTime, without relying on ``int()``
+
+.. _release6.1:
+
+6.1
+---
+* UTCTime and GeneralizedTime allowed values to have plus sign in them,
+  passing int() check successfully. Prohibit that incorrect behaviour
+* UTCTime and GeneralizedTime BER decoding support
+* Faster UTCTime and GeneralizedTime decoding, and slightly better
+  overall performance
+* Workability under Cython
+* Explicitly Check that all ObjectIdentifier arcs are non-negative
