 # 0.7.2
 
-## October 10, 2021
+## November 15, 2021
+
+A mostly maintenance release with some key updates and cleanups based on community deployments and discovery.
+With usage in the field increasing, we're cleaning up edge cases and issues related to volume deployments.
+
+The most significant new feature for users of Indy ledgers is a simplified approach for transaction authors getting their transactions
+signed by an endorser. Transaction author controllers now do almost nothing other than configuring their instance to use an Endorser,
+and ACA-Py takes care of the rest. Documentation of that feature is [here](Endorser.md).
