66−- The SYB dependency was removed, and traversals rewritten by hand, for a large performance increase (paf31)
70−- The subsumes relation has been fixed for object types (paf31)
71−- `sort` no longer mutates arrays (joneshf)

87−- A bug which prevented `sequence $ [Just 1]` from typechecking was fixed (paf31)
91−- Purescript libraries are now [distributed via Bower](http://bower.io/search/?q=purescript). There are currently around 40 libraries available.
95−- The `grunt-purescript` plugin has been updated to provide support for new command line options.
96−- There is a new `gulp-purescript` plugin available for compiling with Gulp.
100−- There is a new `hierarchy` executable which will generate `.dot` diagrams based on the type class hierarchy of a module. The Prelude docs have been updated to include such a type class diagram. (joneshf)
