+
+This release brings two exciting updates! First, contracts can now be built using the
+`stable` Rust toolchain! Don't ask us how we managed to do this 👻.
+
+Secondly, it allows you to build ink! `v4.0.0-alpha.1`, which introduced a small - but
+breaking - change to the ink! ABI as part of [paritytech/ink#1313](https://github.com/paritytech/ink/pull/1313).
+
+### Added
+- Add support for ink!'s `version` metadata field - [#641](https://github.com/paritytech/cargo-contract/pull/641)
 
-- Fix windows dylint build (#690)

+- Build contracts and dylint driver with stable - [#698](https://github.com/paritytech/cargo-contract/pull/698)
+- Compile dylints when compiling the contract - [#703](https://github.com/paritytech/cargo-contract/pull/703)
+- Move transcode example to doc test, add helper method - [#705](https://github.com/paritytech/cargo-contract/pull/705)
+    - Note that alongside this PR we released [`[email protected]`](https://crates.io/crates/contract-transcode/0.2.0)
