-- Support for `i128` and `u128` is automatically enabled for Rust >= 1.26. This

- informing the optimiser that indexing is never out-of-bounds.
-
-### Removed
-- Removed the Deprecated `choose_option`
-
-
-## [Rust 0.11.0] - 2014-07-02
-### Added
-- document when to use `OSRng` in cryptographic context, and explain why we use `/dev/urandom` instead of `/dev/random`
-- `Rng::gen_iter()` which will return an infinite stream of random values
-- `Rng::gen_ascii_chars()` which will return an infinite stream of random ascii characters
-
-### Changed
-- Now only depends on libcore!
-- Remove `Rng.choose()`, rename `Rng.choose_option()` to `.choose()`
-- Rename OSRng to OsRng
-- The WeightedChoice structure is no longer built with a `Vec<Weighted<T>>`,
- but rather a `&mut [Weighted<T>]`. This means that the WeightedChoice
- structure now has a lifetime associated with it.
-- The `sample` method on `Rng` has been moved to a top-level function in the
- `rand` module due to its dependence on `Vec`.
-
-### Removed
-- `Rng::gen_vec()` was removed. Previous behavior can be regained with
- `rng.gen_iter().take(n).collect()`
-- `Rng::gen_ascii_str()` was removed. Previous behavior can be regained with
- `rng.gen_ascii_chars().take(n).collect()`
-- {IsaacRng, Isaac64Rng, XorShiftRng}::new() have all been removed. These all
- relied on being able to use an OSRng for seeding, but this is no longer
- available in librand (where these types are defined). To retain the same
- functionality, these types now implement the `Rand` trait so they can be
- generated with a random seed from another random number generator. This allows
- the stdlib to use an OSRng to create seeded instances of these RNGs.
-- Rand implementations for `Box<T>` and `@T` were removed. These seemed to be
- pretty rare in the codebase, and it allows for librand to not depend on
- liballoc. Additionally, other pointer types like Rc<T> and Arc<T> were not
- supported.
-- Remove a slew of old deprecated functions
-
-
-## [Rust 0.10] - 2014-04-03
-### Changed
-- replace `Rng.shuffle's` functionality with `.shuffle_mut`
-- bubble up IO errors when creating an OSRng
-
-### Fixed
-- Use `fill()` instead of `read()`
-- Rewrite OsRng in Rust for windows
-
-## [0.10-pre] - 2014-03-02
-### Added
-- Seperate `rand` out of the standard library
