+## 0.8.0 (2014-05-27)
+
+Features:
+
+  - Added Serializers with ArraySerializer, DataArraySerializer (default) and a provisional JsonApiSerializer. See [Issue #47].
+  - Added `ResourceAbstract::setMeta('foo', mixed)` to allow custom meta data
+  - Replaced `Manager::setRequestedScopes()` with `Manager::parseIncludes('foo,bar')` which can be an array or CSV string. It can
+  also take "Smart Syntax" such as `Manager::parseIncludes('bars:limit(5|1):order(-something)')`, which can come from a URL query
+  param: `/foo?include=bars:limit(5|1):order(-something)`.
+  - Made all pagination (paginators and cursors) use meta output logic, so it sits with your custom meta data
+  - Moved `League\Fractal\Cursor\Cursor` and `League\Fractal\Cursor\CursorInterface` into `League\Fractal\Pagination`.

 When building an API it is common for people to just grab stuff from the database and pass it

 ## Goals
 
 * Create a "barrier" between source data and output, so schema changes do not affect users
-* Systematic type-casting of data, to avoid foreach()ing through and (bool)ing everything
-* Embed (or nest) relationships for complex data structures
+* Systematic type-casting of data, to avoid `foreach()`ing through and `(bool)`ing everything
+* Include (a.k.a embedding, nesting or side-loading) relationships for complex data structures
+* Work with standards like HAL and JSON-API but also allow custom serialization
 * Support the pagination of data results, for small and large data sets alike
 * Generally ease the subtle complexities of outputting data in a non-trivial API
