-ADIOS2 Support
+Improved Builds and Packages
 
-[Summary]
+This release improves PyPI releases with proper declaration of build dependencies (use pip 19.0+).
+For ``Makefile``-based projects, an ``openPMD.pc`` file to be used with ``pkg-config`` is added on install.
+``RecordComponent`` now supports a ``makeEmpty`` method to write a zero-extent, yet multi-dimensional record component.
+We are now building as shared library by default.
