+ * improved alarms
+
+ Many new alarms have been added to detect common kernel

+ notifications, with multiple recipients for each role
+ and severity filtering per recipient!
+
+ Also, netdata support HTML5 notifications, while the
+ dashboard is open in a browser window (no need to be
+ the active one).
+
+ All notifications are now clickable to get to the chart
+ that raised the alarm.
+
+ * improved IoT support!
+
+ netdata builds and runs with musl libc and runs on systems
+ based on busybox.
+
+ * improved containers support!
+
+ netdata runs on alpine linux (a low profile linux distribution
+ used in containers).
+
+ * Dozens of other improvements and bugfixes
