+# 0.29 - 2022-07-20 "Edition 2018 Release"
+
+As promised, this is our quick release to bring on edition 2018 by increasing our MSRV to Rust
+1.41.1 [#983](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-bitcoin/pull/983)
+
+This work saw a bunch of new language features become available to us. At the
+same time we were able to start using `rustfmt`. We also started linting as part
+of CI.
+
+## Breaking changes
+
+There are numerous breaking changes in this release related to the new language features but also
+other improvements such as more newtypes added. Note that not all changes cause compilation failure!
+For example, [`Witness` serialization was changed](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-bitcoin/pull/1068)
+to support human-readable formats.
