+### 2023-05-25: [Stgit v2.3.0][v2.3.0] has been released.
+
+The headline feature for this release is prebuilt StGit packages for
+various platforms. Unofficial deb and rpm packages containing a
+statically linked `stg` executable should help solve the problem of how
+to deploy a modern version of StGit on distributions using deb and rpm
+packages. And a shiny new msi package makes StGit natively deployable on
+Windows without requiring users to build it themselves.
+
+This release gets a minor bump because the `import-compressed` feature
+has been removed in favor of always-on support for importing compressed
+patches and tarball series. Part of this change was switching from the
+bzip2 crate, which depends on the system libbz2, to the pure-Rust
+bzip2-rs crate which allows for static linking when not using the
+`import-url` feature.
+
+This release also contains a few more bugfixes to `stg import`.

+StGit interoperates closely with Git and does much of its work by
 running `git` commands. Git 2.2.0 or newer is required.
 
+StGit was originally implemented in Python, but as of version 2.0.0,
+StGit is implemented in [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/). See
+[INSTALL.md][gh-install] for more details on StGit's source and runtime
+dependencies.

+### Prebuilt Packages
+
+Prebuilt deb, rpm, and msi packages are provided by the StGit project.
+Packages for the latest release may be found [here][gh-latest].
+
+Note that the Linux deb and rpm packages are unofficial. The upstream
+Debian and RedHat/Fedora projects currently only publish outdated
+versions of StGit (see [repology][repology]). These unofficial packages
+are meant to be a stop-gap until official StGit packages are provided by
+downstream distributions.
+
+The Linux deb and rpm packages are statically linked use musl libc to
+maximize compatibility. They should hopefully work on a wide range of
+deb and rpm based distributions.
