-We are pleased to announce the release 3.2.0 of the GUDHI library.
+We are pleased to announce the release 3.X.X of the GUDHI library.
 
-As a major new feature, the GUDHI library now offers a Python interface to [Hera](https://bitbucket.org/grey_narn/hera/src/master/) to compute the Wasserstein distance.
-[PyBind11](https://github.com/pybind/pybind11) is now required to build the Python module.

-We are now using GitHub to develop the GUDHI library, do not hesitate to [fork the GUDHI project on GitHub](https://github.com/GUDHI/gudhi-devel). From a user point of view, we recommend to download GUDHI user version (gudhi.3.2.0.tar.gz).

+Below is a list of changes made since GUDHI 3.X-1.X-1:
 
-- Point cloud utilities
-     - A new module [Time Delay Embedding](https://gudhi.inria.fr/python/latest/point_cloud.html#time-delay-embedding)
-       to embed time-series data in the R^d according to [Takens' Embedding Theorem](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takens%27s_theorem)
-       and obtain the coordinates of each point.
-     - A new module [K Nearest Neighbors](https://gudhi.inria.fr/python/latest/point_cloud.html#k-nearest-neighbors)
-       that wraps several implementations for computing the k nearest neighbors in a point set.
-     - A new module [Distance To Measure](https://gudhi.inria.fr/python/latest/point_cloud.html#distance-to-measure)
-       to compute the distance to the empirical measure defined by a point set
+- [Module](link)
+     - ...
 
-- [Persistence representations](https://gudhi.inria.fr/python/latest/representations.html)
-     - Interface to Wasserstein distances.
-
-- Rips complex
-     - A new module [Weighted Rips Complex](https://gudhi.inria.fr/python/latest/rips_complex_user.html#weighted-rips-complex)
-       to construct a simplicial complex from a distance matrix and weights on vertices.
-
-- [Wassertein distance](https://gudhi.inria.fr/python/latest/wasserstein_distance_user.html)
-     - An [another implementation](https://gudhi.inria.fr/python/latest/wasserstein_distance_user.html#hera)
-       comes from Hera (BSD-3-Clause) which is based on [Geometry Helps to Compare Persistence Diagrams](http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/3064175)
-       by Michael Kerber, Dmitriy Morozov, and Arnur Nigmetov.
-     - `gudhi.wasserstein.wasserstein_distance` has now an option to return the optimal matching that achieves the distance between the two diagrams.
-     - A new module [Barycenters](https://gudhi.inria.fr/python/latest/wasserstein_distance_user.html#barycenters)
-       to estimate the Frechet mean (aka Wasserstein barycenter) between persistence diagrams.
-
-- [Simplex tree](https://gudhi.inria.fr/python/latest/simplex_tree_ref.html)
-     - Extend filtration method to compute extended persistence
-     - Flag and lower star persistence pairs generators
-     - A new interface to filtration, simplices and skeleton getters to return an iterator
-
-- [Alpha complex](https://gudhi.inria.fr/doc/latest/group__alpha__complex.html)
-     - Improve computations (cache circumcenters computation and point comparison improvement)
-
-- [Persistence graphical tools](https://gudhi.inria.fr/python/latest/persistence_graphical_tools_user.html)
-     - New rendering option proposed (use LaTeX style, add grey block, improved positioning of labels, etc.). 
-     - Can now handle (N x 2) numpy arrays as input
