+## v6.1.0
+
+capa v6.1.0 is a bug fix release, most notably fixing unhandled exceptions in the capa explorer IDA Pro plugin.
+@Aayush-Goel-04 put a lot of effort into improving code quality and adding a script for rule authors.
+The script shows which features are present in a sample but not referenced by any existing rule.
+You could use this script to find opportunities for new rules.
+
+Speaking of new rules, we have eight additions, coming from Ronnie, Jakub, Moritz, Ervin, and still@teamt5.org!
