+**v1.0.0:**
+
+  * Continues development on Titus v0.8.4 which was maintained by Open Data Group.
+
+  * Major version change as significant changes were made to the codebase in order to migrate to Python 3.
+
+  *  Python's 2to3 tool was used to convert the python files post which other migration activity was undertaken.
+
+  * Listify dict methods - keys(), values(), items().
+
+  * Listify map() function
+
+  * xrange() -> range()
+
+  * unicode, basestring -> str 
+
+  * long -> int 
+
+  * raw_input() -> input()
+
+  * unichr() -> chr()
+
+  * .next() method replaced by next() in-built function.
+
+  * urllib.urlopen() -> urllib.request.urlopen()
+
+  * __init__.func_code  -> __init__.__code__
+
+  * Provide the rich comparison methods for ordering in Python 3, which are __lt__, __gt__, __le__, __ge__, __eq__, and __ne__ (PEP 207 -- Rich Comparisons). __cmp__ is no longer used.
+
+  * L postfix is no longer used to denote long datatype number.
+
+  * isinstance(jsonInput, file) -> isinstance(jsonInput, io.IOBase)
+
+  * avro.schema.make_avsc_object() -> avro.schema.SchemaFromJSONData()
+
+  * avro.schema.ArraySchema() & avro.schema.MapSchema() no longer have avro.schema.Names() argument.
+
+  * In Python 3, a new data type is introduced called bytes which is denoted by b'' prefix. As per the PFA specification bytes input and output data are in string form and without any b prefix. To comply with the specification bytesToString() and stringToBytes() are included in titus/utils.py. Also, all inputs to the engine.action() should not contain any string(bytes) prefixed by b'' as per the standard.
+
+  * '/' operator yields a float when operated on integers. Replaced with '//'.
+
+  * sorted( .. , lambda x, y: compare(...)) replaced by sorted(.., functools.cmp_to_key(...)) 
+
+  * SchemaParseException -> avro.schema.AvroException
+
+  * Post Python 3.3, the value for any Linux version (sys.platform) is linux instead of linux2.
+
+  * Fixed avro-python3 'mappingproxy' is not JSON serializable issue by replacing json.dumps(self.schema.to_json()) with str(self.schema). More details [here](https://github.com/animator/python3-titus/commit/a82a981f245fac9a7363b9abbde1f0977dd612ff).
+
+  * Fixed fullName property of AvroCompiled. More details [here](https://github.com/animator/python3-titus/commit/95befe35a5d1dc3050e3ec1c3824e61a7a7e1289).
+
+  * Modified testcase to compare string representation of dictionaries using self.assertDictEqual(). More details [here](https://github.com/animator/python3-titus/commit/3be5bafed38db8baa33b5d4dd11ae0e298d25172) 
+
+  * Fixed scripts/pfachain
+
+  * Bug fixes.
