+1.2.1
+----------------------------------
+* Thermal problems are now documented, including a cookbook example.
+* Normal stress boundaries which simulate the effect of a supporting
+  material now work and are documented.
+* Interfacing with custom surface process models works in serial.
+* You may now affect the time step chosen by Gale with the parameter dtFactor.
+* There is now a ShearZ function in the list of Standard Condition Functions.
+* A bug that prevented the windows binary from working has been fixed.
+* A bug in stress boundary conditions which caused applied stresses to
+  be too large by a factor of 2 or 4 has been fixed.
+* A bug where Gale would run out of memory if reading large input
+  files has been fixed.
+* Gale is known to work, although not necessarily scale, up to 512 processors.
+
+The current goals are to work on
+
+  * Frictional boundary conditions
+  * Deformed lower boundaries
+  * Interface with custom surface process models in parallel
+
 1.2.0
 ----------------------------------
 * Gale has been shown to scale to at least 128 processors
