 ## What's New
 
+### April 1, 2021
+* Add snazzy `benchmark.py` script for bulk `timm` model benchmarking of train and/or inference
+* Add Pooling-based Vision Transformer (PiT) models (from https://github.com/naver-ai/pit)
+  * Merged distilled variant into main for torchscript compatibility
+  * Some `timm` cleanup/style tweaks and weights have hub download support
+* Cleanup Vision Transformer (ViT) models
+  * Merge distilled (DeiT) model into main so that torchscript can work
+  * Support updated weight init (defaults to old still) that closer matches original JAX impl (possibly better training from scratch)
+  * Separate hybrid model defs into different file and add several new model defs to fiddle with, support patch_size != 1 for hybrids
+  * Fix fine-tuning num_class changes (PiT and ViT) and pos_embed resizing (Vit) with distilled variants
+  * nn.Sequential for block stack (does not break downstream compat)
+* TnT (Transformer-in-Transformer) models contributed by author (from https://gitee.com/mindspore/mindspore/tree/master/model_zoo/research/cv/TNT)
+* Add RegNetY-160 weights from DeiT teacher model
+* Add new NFNet-L0 w/ SE attn (rename `nfnet_l0b`->`nfnet_l0`) weights 82.75 top-1 @ 288x288
+* Some fixes/improvements for TFDS dataset wrapper
+
 ### March 17, 2021
 * Add new ECA-NFNet-L0 (rename `nfnet_l0c`->`eca_nfnet_l0`) weights trained by myself.
   * 82.6 top-1 @ 288x288, 82.8 @ 320x320, trained at 224x224
