 ## Release Notes
 
+### 0.8.34
+
+* Use the `portable_simd` nightly feature of the standard library instead of the `packed_simd` crate. Only affects the `simd-accel` optional nightly feature.
+* Internal documentation improvements and minor code improvements around `unsafe`.
+
 ### 0.8.33
 
 * Use `packed_simd` instead of `packed_simd_2` again now that updates are back under the `packed_simd` name. Only affects the `simd-accel` optional nightly feature.
