+kmod 21
+=======
+
+- New features:
+       - kmod tool started to learn the "insert" and "remove" commands that
+         are the simplified versions of the older modprobe tool.  These
+         commands are still work in progress so they are hidden behind a
+         --enable-experimental flag during build.  It should not be enabled
+         unless you know what you're doing.
+       - kmod tool now prints the relevant configuration options it was built
+         with when the "--version" argument is passed. This helps to mitigate
+         problems for example when the user is trying to load a compressed
+         module but kmod was built without support for the compression method.
+
+- Improvements to testsuite:
+       - Cache built modules so it is easier to run "make check" on build
+         servers by distro maintainers. If kmod is configured with
+         --disable-test-modules the modules from cache will be used by
+         "make check". No changes to the tests are needed and all of them
+         can run fine.
