+  ==================================
+
+  This is just a bugfix release that fixes the most pressing regressions we
+  introduced with version 0.11.0. The way type computations are performed was
+  changed significantly causing all sort of problems. Sorry for the
+  inconvenience; we grew overconfident our large test suite would prevent these
