+NEW in 2.29.2
+=============
+
+The "Nintendo or Zappa" release.
+
+Empathy now uses the TpAccount API and so depends on telepathy-glib 0.9.0,
+but we strongly advise you to use the latest telepathy-glib release.
+
+This release brings support for a subset of IRC commands such as "/join".
+Empathy is also now able to join password protected chat rooms; note that
+this doesn't work with IRC channels at the moment because of a telepathy-idle
+bug (fd.o #25039).
+
+We also worked on improving error reporting to users. The contact list will now
+display a new info bar when an account is disconnected and the audio/video UI
+should give better feedback if an error occurs.
+
