+## Release 1.4.6
+
+Fixes some issues encountered by our users.
+
+* Restarting a peer could leave stale entries in WeaveDNS
+  #1867/#2023/#2081
+* Weave proxy occasionally failing to attach any new containers
+  #2016/#2049
+
+Other fixes:
+
+* Resolved a crash when a restarting peer re-connected to a peer that
+  had not received the latest IPAM data #2083/#2092
+* Make IP address space available immediately after a dead peer is
+  removed #2068
+
+## Release 1.4.5
+
+Higher performance for multicast and broadcast traffic when using
+Weave's Fast Datapath
+
+* The flow rule to deliver broadcast and multicast packets in-kernel
+  was not created correctly, hence every such packet caused a
+  context-switch to the software router #2003/#2008
+
+Other fixes:
+
+* Remove DNS entries for containers that are being restarted by Docker
+  but are not live yet #1977/#1989
+* Don't let one failing allocation attempt prevent others from
+  succeeding; they could be in different subnets which are more
+  available #1996/#2001
+* Don't complain on second router launch on kernels that lack support
+  for Fast Datapath #1929/#1983
+* Fix build broken by change in libnetwork IPAM API #1984/#1985
+
+## Release 1.4.4
+
+Fixing a rather serious issue that slipped through our preparations
+for Docker 1.10:
+
+* Restarting Docker or rebooting your machine while the Weave Net
+  plugin is running causes Docker 1.10.0 to fail to start #1959/#1963
+
+Also one other small fix:
+
+* Avoid a hang when trying to use plugin and proxy at the same time
+  #1956/#1961
+
+## Release 1.4.3
+
+Preparing for Docker 1.10, plus some bug-fixes.
+
+* Avoid hang in Docker v1.10 on `docker volume ls` after `weave stop`,
+  `weave stop-plugin` or `weave reset` #1934/#1936
+* Fix "unexpected EOF" from Docker 1.10 on `docker exec` with Weave
+  proxy `--rewrite-inspect` enabled #1911/#1917
+* Avoid losing DNS entries and potentially double-allocating IP
+  Addresses allocated via plugin, on router restart; also extend
+  `weave ps` to show IP addresses allocated via plugin #1745/#1921
+* Stop creating lots of copies of `weavewait` program in Docker
+  volumes #1757/#1935
+* Prevent container starting prematurely when proxy in
+`--no-multicast-route` mode #1942/#1943
+* Log error message from plugin rather than crashing when weave not
+  running #1906/#1918
+* Warn, don't error, if unable to remove plugin network in 'weave
+  stop', to avoid breaking the usual upgrade or config change process
+  #1900/#1919
+* Don't crash if network conditions suggest only very small packets
+  will get through #1905/#1926
+* Cope with unexpected errors during route traversal when starting
+  container via proxy #1909/#1910/#1932
+
 ## Release 1.4.2
 
 Bug-fixes and minor improvements.
