+propellor (1.2.0) unstable; urgency=medium
 
   * Display a warning when ensureProperty is used on a property which has
     Info and is so prevented from propigating it.
+  * Removed boolProperty; instead the new toResult can be used. (API change)
+  * Include Propellor.Property.OS, which was accidentially left out of the
+    cabal file in the last release.
