+# Change Log
+
+Notable changes are logged here by release. This project is not
+expected to be especially active and follows a simplified Semantic Versioning:
+
+- Version numbers take the format X.Y
+- X is associated with major API breakage / changes in algorithm and results.
+- Y is associated with minor updates and improvements
+- Small amounts of code tidying, refactoring and documentation do not
+  lead to a new release, and simply sit on the Development branch of
+  the Git repository.
+
+The changelog format is inspired by [keep-a-changelog](https://github.com/olivierlacan/keep-a-changelog).
+
