+Release 2.11-r797 (20 June 2018)
+--------------------------------
+
+Changes to minimap2:
+
+ * Improved alignment accuracy in low-complexity regions for SV calling. Thank
+   @armintoepfer for multiple offline examples.
+
+ * Added option --eqx to encode sequence match/mismatch with the =/X CIGAR
+   operators (#156, #157 and #175).
+
+ * When compiled with VC++, minimap2 generated wrong alignments due to a
+   comparison between a signed integer and an unsigned integer (#184). Also
+   fixed warnings reported by "clang -Wextra".
+
+ * Fixed incorrect anchor filtering due to a missing 64- to 32-bit cast.
+
+ * Fixed incorrect mapping quality for inversions (#148).
+
+ * Fixed incorrect alignment involving ambiguous bases (#155).
+
+ * Fixed incorrect presets: option `-r 2000` is intended to be used with
+   ava-ont, not ava-pb. The bug was introduced in 2.10.
+
+ * Fixed a bug when --for-only/--rev-only is used together with --sr or
+   --heap-sort=yes (#166).
+
+ * Fixed option -Y that was not working in the previous releases.
+
+ * Added option --lj-min-ratio to fine control the alignment of long gaps
+   found by the "long-join" heuristic (#128).
+
+ * Exposed `mm_idx_is_idx`, `mm_idx_load` and `mm_idx_dump` C APIs (#177).
+   Also fixed a bug when indexing without reference names (this feature is not
+   exposed to the command line).
+
+Changes to mappy:
+
+ * Added `__version__` (#165).
+
+ * Exposed the maximum fragment length parameter to mappy (#174).
+
+Changes to paftools:
+
+ * Don't crash when there is no "cg" tag (#153).
+
+ * Fixed wrong coverage report by "paftools.js call" (#145).
+
+This version may produce slightly different base-level alignment. The overall
+alignment statistics should remain similar.
