+0.8.0
+=====
+
+We are happy to announce another developmental release under the summer fellowship at `The Processing Foundation <https://processingfoundation.org/>`_.
+The project was supervised by `Mark Zhang <https://github.com/ziyaointl>`_. This release comes with an experimental 2D renderer using `Skia <https://skia.org/>`_.
+The skia 2D renderer shows significance improvements in both rendering and efficiency of the sketches.

+- #311
+- #308
+- #309
+- #355
+- #352
+
+New Features
+------------
+
+- Along with the snake_case convention we support the camelCase convention for most Processing APIs #280
+- New experimental 2D renderer "skia" #344. Skia currently does not support typography and Image APIs, they will be implemented in further releases.
+
+List of New APIs
+----------------------
+  - :any:`frame_rate` sets frame rate for a sketch (only for skia)
+  - :any:`rect` now supports border radius (only for skia)
+  - :any:`CORNERS` CORNERS mode added (only for skia)
+  - :any:`focussed` holds whether the current window is in focus or not (only for skia)
+
+All the API previously present are supported as well in skia.
+
+``Here are some profiling results comparing the time taken to draw 100 frames for different sketches``

+v0.8.1
+======
+
+We are happy to announce the final developmental release under the
+summer fellowship at `The Processing
+Foundation <https://processingfoundation.org/>`__ The project was
+supervised by `Mark Zhang <https://github.com/ziyaointl>`__. This
+release adds on to the experimental 2D renderer using
+`Skia <https://skia.org>`__.
+
+New Features

+
+Typography support for skia #371
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+::
+
+   - p5py now support all types of fonts as found in other processing ports

+
+Image APIs for “skia” #344
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Support for Offscreen buffers #386
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+::
+
+   - create_grahpics is now available in p5py's skia renderer
+
+Support for python 3.10 #395
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+::
+
+   - Please see the attached note below
+
+This release includes contributions from @tushar5526, @ziyaointl, and
+@Mr-Sunglasses, Thank you!
+
+PS: There are a lot of good open issues that currently need help and we
+would love your contributions!
+
+NOTE
+----
+
+``pyopengl-accelarate`` is omitted from the ``requirements.txt``
+temporarily. See #397 for more information about this. If you are
+looking for better 3D performance you can install it from the
+``requirements.txt`` file.
