 # Revision history for spacecookie
 
+I am currently trying to decide on the maintenance mode of
+spacecookie going forward, especially the included server daemon.
+It would help me to hear from users of this software, in particular
+what parts of it they're using. If you count yourself among those users,
+I'd be grateful if you'd reach out to me at <sternenseemann@systemli.org>.
+
+## 1.1.0.1
+
+2026-04-17
+
+* Fix menu responses not being terminated by the _Lastline_ pattern.
+* Add `install-daemon` Cabal flag (on by default) which controls
+  whether the executable component of the package is built.
+
 ## 1.1.0.0
