-## NEWS ##
-
-### v1.7.1 ###
-
-* Fixes nasty bug "LockWaitTimeout causes lock to be forever unusable" (#49)
-
-### v1.7.0 ###
-
-* Added Locker timeout feature for blocking calls. (issue #40)
-
-Previously, when dealing with locks, there were only two options: blocking or non-blocking. In order to come up with a time-limited lock, you had to poll every so often until you acquired the lock. This is, needless to say, both inefficient and doesn't allow for fair acquisition. 
-
-A timeout option has been added so that when blocking waiting for a lock, you can specify a deadline by which the lock should have been acquired. 
-
-```ruby
-zk = ZK.new
-
-locker = zk.locker('lock name')
-
-begin
-  locker.lock(:wait => 5.0)   # wait up to 5.0 seconds to acquire the lock
-rescue ZK::Exceptions::LockWaitTimeoutError
-  $stderr.puts "could not acquire the lock in time"
-end
-```
-
-Also available when using the convenience `#with_lock` methods
-
-```ruby
-
-zk = ZK.new
-
-begin
-  zk.with_lock('lock name', :wait => 5.0) do |lock|
-    # do stuff while holding lock
-  end
-rescue ZK::Exceptions::LockWaitTimeoutError
-  $stderr.puts "could not acquire the lock in time"
-end
-
-```
-
-### v1.6.4 ###
-
-* Remove unnecessary dependency on backports gem
-* *Fix for use in resque!* A small bug was preventing resque from activating the fork hook.
