+*March 6, 2023*
+
+This is the first CometBFT release with ABCI 1.0, which introduces the
+`PrepareProposal` and `ProcessProposal` methods, with the aim of expanding the
+range of use cases that application developers can address. This is the first
+change to ABCI towards ABCI++, and the full range of ABCI++ functionality will
+only become available in the next major release with ABCI 2.0. See the
+[specification](./spec/abci/) for more details.
+
+In the v0.34.27 release, the CometBFT Go module is still
+`github.com/tendermint/tendermint` to facilitate ease of upgrading for users,
+but in this release we have changed this to `github.com/cometbft/cometbft`.
+
+Please also see our [upgrading guidelines](./UPGRADING.md) for more details on
+upgrading from the v0.34 release series.
+
+Also see our [QA results](https://docs.cometbft.com/v0.37/qa/v037/cometbft) for
+the v0.37 release.
+
+We'd love your feedback on this release! Please reach out to us via one of our
+communication channels, such as [GitHub
+Discussions](https://github.com/cometbft/cometbft/discussions), with any of your
+questions, comments and/or concerns.

+See below for more details.
