+AIOHappyBase 1.3.0
+------------------
+
+Release date: 2020-03-10
+
+- Added support for the async framed transport and compact protocol that were
+  added in ThriftPy2 4.10 (which is now the new minimum version).
+
+- Implemented counter batching with ``Batch.counter_inc()``
+  and ``Batch.counter_dec()``.
+
+- Added ``Table.append()`` to utilize the append Thrift endpoint.
+
+- ``Connection`` now internally utilizes ``make_aio_client()`` to create the
+  internal Thrift client.
+
+  - All additional keyword arguments provided to ``Connection`` instances will
+    be passed to the client.
+
+  - This enables support for SSL sockets and any additional features future
+    versions of ``thriftpy2`` add.
+
+- Implemented a ``sync`` subpackage to enable backwards compatibility with
+  the original ``HappyBase`` synchronized API and ease the transition process.
+
+  - It is mostly autogenerated at runtime from the async code to simplify
+    maintenance and ensure all features are available.
+
+  - A simple ``happybase.py`` module is included to complete the backwards
+    compatibility. If ``HappyBase`` is already installed, that *should*
+    take precedence.

 AIOHappyBase 1.2.0
 ------------------
 
 Release date: 2019-11-28
 
 First release of the async version of HappyBase!
 
-The version number is the same because the API is almost identical (albeit async) except for a few updates:

+(albeit async) except for a few updates:
 
-- Only Python 3.6+ will be supported (I like f-strings and ordered dictionaries, sue me:P)
-- ``Connection`` and ``ConnectionPool`` objects can be used as context managers (async and regular).
-- Explicitly closing non-context managed ``Connection`` and ``ConnectionPool`` objects is now required due the asyncio event loop being mostly unavailable during __del__.
