+### v0.10.0
+
+_2021 June 02_
+
+v0.10.0 is a mild release, containing _no_ breaking changes, but lots of cool new stuff.  Update at your earliest convenience.
+
+There's a bunch of cool new features in here, some of which are significant power-ups for the ecosystem (e.g. the `NodeReifier` API), so we recommend updating as soon as possible.
+
+There's also some sizable performance improvements available for generated code, so go forth and update your generated code too!
+
+Check out the full feature list:
+
 - New: an `ipld.DeepEqual` method lets you easily compare two `ipld.Node` for equality.  (This is useful in case you have nodes with two different internal implementations, different memory layouts, etc, such that native golang equality would not be semantically correct.)
   [[#174](https://github.com/ipld/go-ipld-prime/pull/174)]
 - New: the multicodec package exposes a `multicodec.Registry` type, and also some `multicodec.List*` methods.

 - New: a cbor (as opposed to dag-cbor) codec is now available from this repo.  Same story as the json codec: it just explicitly doesn't support links (because you should use dag-cbor if you want that).

+This contained a ton of contributions from lots of people: especially thanks to @mvdan, @hannahhoward, and @willscott for invaluable contributions.
