+### 1.0.0.beta4 / 2015-04-22
+
+Whoa there's lots of changes here... Many are outlined below, but there's really
+a ton more.
+
+* Improvements
+  * Full refactor of FFI/C function wrapper. Closer mapping of Ruby functions
+    within modules to the C-header files where the functions actually reside.
+  * Full redesign of the error handling mechanism; ffi-gdal now hooks in to
+    GDAL's error handling, thus errors raised from GDAL automagically get handed
+    over as Ruby exceptions. (GDAL only; OGR doesn't provide this.) This also
+    entailed adding a bunch of new exceptions and renaming some old ones.
+  * Better library finding on Linux.
+  * Wrapped most of GDAL's Grid API.
+  * Wrapped some of GDAL's Warp API.
+  * GDAL::Dataset can now open PostGISRaster datasets.
+  * Lots more OGR love. Much of this API has now been vetted.
+  * Added `GDAL::RasterClassifier` for classifying raster bands.
+  * Added some wrapper methods for classes that support capability testing.
+* Bug fixes
+  * Fixed some GDAL::Dataset extension methods (`extract_ndvi` and friends)
+    that weren't properly handling various data types.
+  * Better handling of large files.
+  * Fixed regular crashes when dealing with OGR Geometries and
+    SpatialReferences.

 ### 1.0.0.beta3 / 2014-11-11
 
 * Bug fixes
-    * `ogr/exceptions` wasn't being required for `ext/error_symbols.rb`, thus
-      any use of an OGR exception was causing a `NameError`.

 ### 1.0.0.beta2 / 2014-10-23
 
 * Improvements
-    * Added more documentation
-    * Uncommented `attach_function` calls that had been commented out due to
-      lack of support in versions I'd tested on.  These get handled now on load.

 ### 1.0.0.beta1 / 2014-10-23
 
 * Lots of changes, so just the highlights here...
 * API Improvements
-    * Added C and Ruby wrapper for most of OGR.
-    * Better handling of CPLErr return values.
-    * Allow loading, even when C functions aren't defined in the version of
-      GDAL that you're using.
-    * Split out additions to GDAL/OGR in `*_extensions.rb` modules.  Methods
-      contained in `Extentions` modules don't directly wrap GDAL/OGR functions,
-      but either provide new functionality or attempt to make library usage more
-      Rubyesque.
-    * Added `#as_json`, `#to_json` to many classes.

 * Internal Improvements
-    * Lots of cleanup of class internals.
-    * `autoload` child GDAL and OGR Ruby classes.
-    * Renamed files under ffi/ that were derived from GDAL/OGR header files to
-      include `_h` in the name.

 ### 0.0.3 / 2014-09-26
 
 * Improvements
-    * The `approx_ok` param for `RasterBand#histogram` should default to
-      `false` (prefering data exactness over performance).
