+Imager 1.003 - 12 May 2015
+============
+
+ - update 1.002 release notes to include the center change for filled

+   https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=103786
+
+Imager 1.002 - 3 Apr 2015
+============
+
+ - drawing anti-aliased filled circles is now 10 to 50 times faster
+   depending on the size of the circle.
+   This also changed the center from being the center of the pixel to
+   being the top left of the pixel to match the filled arcs drawn by
+   arc().
+   https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=101682
+
+ - enhancements to polygon filling:
+
+   - added a mode parameter to control how overlapping regions behave
+
+   - added a polypolygon() method to fill more than one polygon at a
+     time
+
+   - polygon filling is now exposed through the API.
+
+ - added colormodel(), alphachannel() and colorchannels() methods.
+   These were added for two reasons:
+
+    - a future version of Imager may allow the number of channels in
+      an image to not directly represent the color model of an image.
+      eg. a greyscale TIFF image with multiple alpha channels.
+
+    - a future version of Imager may allow an image to be read without
+      translation, for example a TIFF file that contains measurements
+      from an instrument.  Currently Imager transforms the samples into
+      the range 0.0 ... 1.0 which may means the user has to translates
+      the value back.
+
+      An untranslated image would be unusable as image data, so
+      colormodel() would return "unknown" in this case.
+
+      Similarly a CMYK image might be returned as an "unknown" color
+      model image, if the caller chooses to disable translation to
+      RGB.
