 * now relation id can be set directly to relation, e.g. `Post { @ManyToOne(type => Tag) tag: Tag|number }` with `post.tag = 1` usage.
 * now you can disable persistence on any relation by setting `@OneToMany(type => Post, post => tag, { persistence: false })`. This can dramatically improve entity save performance.
 * `loadAllRelationIds` method of `QueryBuilder` now accepts list of relation paths that needs to be loaded, also `disableMixedMap` option is now by default set to false, but you can enable it via new method parameter `options`
-* lot of changes affect closure table pattern which is planned for fix in 0.3.0 
 * now `returning` and `output` statements of `InsertQueryBuilder` support array of columns as argument
 * now when many-to-many and one-to-many relation set to `null` all items from that relation are removed, just like it would be set to empty array
 * fixed issues with relation updation from one-to-one non-owner side

-* `findTrees` - Gets complete tree for all roots in the table.
-
-```typescript
-const treeCategories = await repository.findTrees();
-// returns root categories with sub categories inside
-```
-
-* `findRoots` - Roots are entities that have no ancestors. Finds them all.
-Does not load children leafs.
-
-```typescript
-const rootCategories = await repository.findRoots();
-// returns root categories without sub categories inside
-```
-
-* `findDescendants` - Gets all children (descendants) of the given entity. Returns them all in a flat array.
-
-```typescript
-const childrens = await repository.findDescendants(parentCategory);
-// returns all direct subcategories (without its nested categories) of a parentCategory
-```
-
-* `findDescendantsTree` - Gets all children (descendants) of the given entity. Returns them in a tree - nested into each other.
-
-```typescript
-const childrensTree = await repository.findDescendantsTree(parentCategory);
-// returns all direct subcategories (with its nested categories) of a parentCategory
-```
-
-* `createDescendantsQueryBuilder` - Creates a query builder used to get descendants of the entities in a tree.
-
-```typescript
-const childrens = await repository
-    .createDescendantsQueryBuilder("category", "categoryClosure", parentCategory)
-    .andWhere("category.type = 'secondary'")
-    .getMany();
-```
-
-* `countDescendants` - Gets number of descendants of the entity.
-
-```typescript
-const childrenCount = await repository.countDescendants(parentCategory);
-```
-
-* `findAncestors` - Gets all parent (ancestors) of the given entity. Returns them all in a flat array.
-
-```typescript
-const parents = await repository.findAncestors(childCategory);
-// returns all direct childCategory's parent categories (without "parent of parents")
-```
-
-* `findAncestorsTree` - Gets all parent (ancestors) of the given entity. Returns them in a tree - nested into each other.
-

+We are planning to release a final stable `1.0.0` version in summer 2018.
 However TypeORM is already actively used in number of big production systems.
-Main API is already very stable, there are only few issues currently we have in following areas:
-`class and single table inheritance`, `naming strategy`, `subscribers`, `tree tables`.
-All issues in those areas are planning to be fixed in next minor versions.
-Your donations and contribution play a big role in achieving this goal.
+Main API is already very stable.
 TypeORM follows a semantic versioning and until `1.0.0` breaking changes may appear in `0.x.x` versions,
 however since API is already quite stable we don't expect too much breaking changes.
