+## [0.9.0rc1] - 2020-07-15
+
+### Added
+
+ - mpp: The adaptive multi-part payment modifier will split payments that are failing due to their size into smaller parts, and re-attempted. ([3809](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3809))
+ - mpp: The presplit modifier splits large payments into 10k satoshi parts to maximize chances of performing the payment and to obfuscate the overall amount being sent. ([3809](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3809))
+ - JSON-API: `txprepare` returns a psbt version of the created transaction ([3825](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3825))
+ - JSON-RPC: new low-level coin selection `fundpsbt` routine. ([3825](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3825))
+ - JSON-RPC: The `pay` command now uses the new payment flow, the new `legacypay` command can be used to issue payment with the legacy code if required. ([3826](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3826))
+ - JSON-RPC: The `keysend` command allows sending to a node without requiring an invoice first. ([3792](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3792))
+ - JSON-RPC: `listfunds` now has a 'scriptpubkey' field. ([3821](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3821))
+ - docker: Docker build now includes `LIGHTNINGD_NETWORK` ENV variable which defaults to "bitcoin". An user can override this (e.g. by `-e` option in `docker run`) to run docker container in regtest or testnet or any valid argument to `--network`. ([3813](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3813))
+ - cli: We now install `lightning-hsmtool` for your `hsm_secret` needs. ([3802](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3802))
+ - JSON-RPC: new call `signpsbt` which will add the wallet's signatures to a provided psbt ([3775](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3775))
+ - JSON-RPC: new call `sendpsbt` which will finalize and send a signed PSBT ([3775](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3775))
+ - JSON-RPC: Adds two new rpc methods, `reserveinputs` and `unreserveinputs`, which allow for reserving or unreserving wallet UTXOs ([3775](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3775))
+ - Python: `pyln.spec.bolt{1,2,4,7}` packages providing python versions of the spec text and defined messages. ([3777](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3777))
+ - pyln: new module `pyln.proto.message.bolts` ([3733](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3733))
+ - cli: New `--flat` mode for easy grepping of `lightning-cli` output. ([3722](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3722))
+ - plugins: new notification type, `coin_movement`, which tracks all fund movements for a node ([3614](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3614))
+ - plugin: Added a new `commitment_revocation` hook that provides the plugin with penalty transactions for all revoked transactions, e.g., to push them to a watchtower. ([3659](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3659))
+ - JSON-API: `listchannels` now shows channel `features`. ([3685](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3685))
+ - plugin: New `invoice_creation` plugin event ([3658](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3658))
+ - docs: Install documentation now has information about building for Alpine linux ([3660](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3660))
+
+### Changed
+
+ - JSON-RPC: `fundchannel_cancel` no longer requires its undocumented `channel_id` argument after `fundchannel_complete`. ([3787](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3787))
+ - JSON-RPC: `fundchannel_cancel` will now succeed even when executed while a `fundchannel_complete` is ongoing; in that case, it will be considered as cancelling the funding *after* the `fundchannel_complete` succeeds. ([3778](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3778))
+ - JSON-RPC: `listfunds` 'outputs' now includes reserved outputs, designated as 'reserved' = true ([3764](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3764))
+ - JSON-RPC: `txprepare` now prepares transactions whose `nLockTime` is set to the tip blockheight, instead of using 0. `fundchannel` will use `nLockTime` set to the tip blockheight as well. ([3797](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3797))
+ - build: default compile output is prettier and much less verbose ([3686](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3686))
+ - config: the `plugin-disable` option now works even if specified before the plugin is found. ([3679](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3679))
+ - plugins: The `autoclean` plugin is no longer dynamic (you cannot manage it with the `plugin` RPC command anymore). ([3788](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3788))
+
+
+### Removed
+
+ - protocol: support for optional fields of the reestablish message are now compulsory. ([3782](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3782))
+
+### Fixed
+
+ - JSON-RPC: Reject some bad JSON at parsing. ([3761](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3761))
+ - JSON-RPC: The `feerate` parameters now correctly handle the standardness minimum when passed as `perkb`. ([3772](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3772))
+ - JSON-RPC: `listtransactions` now displays all txids as little endian ([3741](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3741))
+ - JSON-RPC: `pay` now respects maxfeepercent, even for tiny amounts. ([3693](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3693))
+ - JSON-RPC: `withdraw` and `txprepare` `feerate` can be a JSON number. ([3821](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3821))
+ - bitcoin: `lightningd` now always exits if the Bitcoin backend failed unexpectedly. ([3675](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3675))
+ - cli: Bash completion on `lightning-cli` now works again ([3719](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3719))
+ - config: we now take the `--commit-fee` parameter into account. ([3732](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3732))
+ - db: Fixed a failing assertion if we reconnect to a peer that we had a channel with before, and then attempt to insert the peer into the DB twice. ([3801](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3801))
+ - hsmtool: Make the password argument optional for `guesstoremote` and `dumpcommitments` sub-commands, as shown in our documentation and help text. ([3822](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3822))
+ - macOS: Build for macOS Catalina / Apple clang v11.0.3 fixed ([3756](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3756))
+ - protocol: Fixed a deviation from BOLT#2: if both nodes advertised `option_upfront_shutdown_script` feature: MUST include ... a zero-length `shutdown_scriptpubkey`. ([3816](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3816))
+ - wumbo: negotiate successfully with Eclair nodes. ([3712](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3712))
