-  * npm or yarn is required for installing the JavaScript dependencies
-  * libxslt is no longer required because all XSLT has been removed
-  * The its "face" got removed
-  * The extra help pages got replaced by links to the documentation
-TODO
+
+  * The web user interface has been transformed into a single page application
+    which is loaded once and then only updates the in-browser data from the
+    server.
+  * All data loading processes are asynchronous and don't block the GUI from
+    reacting to user input.
+  * Refreshing of data is done in the background now. Therefore the user doesn't
+    need to specify a refresh rate anymore.
+  * The its "face" has been removed.
+  * The extra help pages has been replaced by links to the documentation.
+  * The 'excluded' list option when a New Target is created has been added.
+  * The 'classic hosts' asset has been removed.
+  * New view on scan results by vulnerability has been added.
+  * A link to Scanconfigs from scanner details has been added.
+  * The edit dialog for overrides and notes has been improved and is now more
+    flexible.
+  * The report details view has been overhauled.
+  * Multiple dashboards can be defined by the user at the main entry page.
+  * The edit mode of the dashboards has been removed. Dashboards are always
+    editable now.
+  * nodejs >= 6 is required to generate the new JS based version of GSA.
+  * npm or yarn is required for installing the JavaScript dependencies.
+  * libxslt is no longer required because all XSLT has been removed.
+  * The required minimum version of new dependency GVM Libraries is 1.0 and
+    the dependency to the openvas-libraries module has been removed. Therefore
+    many include directives have been adapted to the new source code.
+  * Minimum required version of glib has been raised to 2.42.
+  * Minimum required version of cmake has been raised to 3.0.
