 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
+3.1.0
+................................................................................
+
+* **Breaking change** – pipeline.metadata now returns a dictionary from
+  json.loads instead of a string.
+
+* pipeline.quickinfo will fetch the PDAL preview() information for a data source.
+  You can use this to fetch header or other information without reading data.
+  https://github.com/PDAL/python/pull/109
+
+* PDAL driver and option collection now uses the PDAL library directly rather
+  than shelling out to the pdal command https://github.com/PDAL/python/pull/107
+
+* Pipelines now support pickling for use with things like Dask
+  https://github.com/PDAL/python/pull/110

+The ``pdal.Pipeline`` class provides the ``get_meshio(idx: int) -> meshio.Mesh`` method. This
 method creates a `Mesh` object from the `PointView` array and mesh properties.
 
 .. note:: The meshio integration requires that meshio is installed (e.g. ``pip install meshio``). If it is not, then the method fails with an informative RuntimeError.
