+2.7.7 - 18 March 2018
+
+    The Gnucash Development Team is pleased to release Gnucash 2.7.6,
+    the seventh release of an unstable series leading to Gnucash 3.0.
+
+    Notice that we've decided that beginning with the upcoming major
+    release we will use two-digit release numbers and that the next
+    stable release will be 3.0. Mainenance releases will be 3.1, 3.2,
+    etc. The next unstable release will be 3.900 and will lead to 4.0.
+
+    This release is UNSTABLE and SHOULD NOT BE USED in production.
+    See the KNOWN PROBLEMS list at the bottom of the announcement.
+
+    This release changes file locations, binding APIs, report options,
+    and can make your data file no longer compatible with previous
+    versions. See https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/UpdateNotes for
+    details.
+
+New Features For Users:
+
+For Developers and Distro packagers:
+    The Python Bindings and Console are now for Python 3.
+    It's now possible to create a GncPrice from the Python bindings
+        with "gnc_price_create(book)", removing the need to clone an existing
+        GncPrice object and modify it.
+    Compilation of GLib Schemas during build and installation can be
+        disabled by setting -DCOMPILE_GSCHEMAS=OFF. This is intended
+        *only* for distribution packaging scripts that run
+        glib-compile-schemas themselves.
+
+The following bugs are fixed only in unstable/master:
+    Bug 787439 - Segmentation Fault in Transfer dialog after clearing
+                 Date field and pressing escape.
+    Bug 791831 - Add python3 support.
+    Bug 794242 - Remove keep above setting for assistant hierarchy
+    
+Other repairs not marked as bugs in git:
+    Fix date corruption in SQL load. Four date elements were affected:
+        GncEntry::date, GncEntry::date_entered, GncInvoice::opened, and
+        GncInvoice::posted. This does not affect the stored values of the dates.
+    Fix lost Bayesian matches in SQL backend. The import-map-bayes uses a
+        three-part key that uses the same delimiter as a path and the SQL
+        backend was throwing away everything except the account guid.
+    More transient-window fixes and other Gtk3 cleanups.
+    Add xmlns namespace declarations to all of the accounts templates that
+        lacked it and remove the emacs mode-setting comments at the end of them.
