+Release notes for i3 v3.a-bf1
+-----------------------------
+
+This is the first bugfix release (bf1) for version 3.a of i3. We felt it was
+a good idea to release the bugfixes which were collected during the last two
+months so that the users of stable releases (as opposed to users following
+the git tree) enjoy a much better i3.
+
+I’d like to thank all contributors who made this release possible by their
+support and bug reports, especially mist, mxf, Atsutane and ch3ka.
+
+All users of i3 3.a are encouraged to upgrade as soon as possible.
+
+A list of changes follows:
+
+  * Bugfix: When entering a stack window with the mouse, set focus to the
+    active client in the container the stack window belongs to.
+  * Bugfix: Correctly filter out the numlock bit. This fixes i3 not reacting
+    to any keybindings after pressing numlock once.
+  * Bugfix: Don't crash when Xinerama is disabled.
+  * Bugfix: Correctly remove client from container when moving to another
+    workspace.
+  * Bugfix: Set focus to the client which was previously focused instead of
+    the next client in container when moving windows out of a container.
+  * Bugfix: Correctly set focus when switching between screens.
+  * Bugfix: Don't crash anymore moving focus to another screen under the
+    following conditions: The screen you switch to has a lower number of cells
+    and/or rows than the current one, you switch focus using your mouse, you
+    previously were in a column/row which is not available on the destination
+    screen.
+  * Bugfix: When switching screens, warp the pointer to the correct
+    destination window.
+  * Bugfix: Store dock clients per screen, not per workspace.
+  * Bugfix: Perform bounds checking for snapped containers.
+  * Bugfix: Send clients their absolute position/size (on the root window) in
+    generated configure events. This fixes problems with xfontsel, xmaple,
+    etc.
+  * Bugfix: Correctly update state when moving fullscreen windows across
+    workspaces.
+  * Bugfix: Correctly restart i3 when not using its absolute path
+  * Bugfix: Drag & Drop in GTK applications works now
+  * Bugfix: Don't hide non-managed windows (libnotify-popups for example)
+    when raising clients in stacked containers.
+  * Bugfix: Correctly restore focus when leaving fullscreen mode
+  * Bugfix: Re-distribute free space when closing customly resized containers,
+    re-evaluate for other containers
+  * Bugfix: When moving windows into different containers, insert them at the
+    correct position.
+  * Bugfix: Correctly set focus when moving windows into other containers
+  * Implement scrolling on stack windows and on the bottom bar.
+  * Create i3-wm-dbg with debug symbols
+  * Don't rely on libxcb-wm any longer, as it got removed in libxcb 0.3.4.
