 ChangeLog
 =========
 
+Version 1.0.6
+-------------

+* updated to handle incompatibilities between aiohttp 1.0 and 2.0.
+  ElexctrumX should work with either for now; I will drop support for
+  1.0 in a few months.  Fixes `#163`_.
+* relax get_chunk restrictions for clients 1.8.3 and higher.  Closes
+  `#162`_.
+* **REPORT_HOST** no longer defaults to **HOST**.  If not set, no
+  clearnet identity will be advertised.
