+### **speedwm 1.3**
+
+speedwm 1.3 mostly adds changes to stellar, the built in status bar such as speed improvements. The net module has also been rewritten.
+
+### Changelog
+- Speed improvements to stellar
+- ITEM_ORDER should no longer have whitespace.
+- Rewrite module_net. New format sucks less!
+- Fix module_weather not displaying
+- Hide module_temp when not printing anything useful
+- Update speedwm_run
+- Fix keybind conflict
+- Hide empty genre with default configuration in module_music
+- Fix ampersand in module_music
+- Release information is now in docs/releaseinfo.md
+- Disable autoresize by default
+
+### Installation
+Nothing has changed with the installation since last release, simply download and unpack the tarball, and `make clean install` as root.
+
+- If you are on Gentoo, you can install both x11-wm/speedwm and x11-wm/speedwm-extras by adding my overlay.
