-0.5.1-alpha
+0.6.0-alpha
 -----------
-**Date:** TBA
+**Date:** 2018-09-20
 
-[Title]
+Particle Patches Improved, Constant Scalars and Python Containers Fixed
 
-[Summary]
+Scalar records properly support const-ness.
+The Particle Patch load interface was changed, loading now all patches at once, and Python bindings are available.
+Numpy ``dtype`` is now a first-class citizen for Python ``Datatype`` control, being accepted and returned instead of enums.
+Python lifetime in garbage collection for containers such as ``meshes``, ``particles`` and ``iterations`` is now properly implemented.
