-NUnit 3.8 - January 27, 2018
+NUnit 3.9 - September 5, 2018
+
+This release should stop the dreaded SocketException problem on shutdown. The
+console also no longer returns -5 when AppDomains fail to unload at the end of a
+test run. These fixes should make CI runs much more stable and predictible.
+
+For developers working on the NUnit Console and Engine project, Visual Studio
+2017 update 5 or newer is now required to compile on the command line. This does
+not effect developers using NUnit or the NUnit Console, both of which support building
+and running your tests in any IDE and on any .NET Framework back to .NET 2.0.
