+Notmuch 0.22 (UNRELEASED)
+=========================
+
+Documentation
+-------------
+
+New `notmuch-report(1)` and `notmuch-report.json(5)` man pages
+describe `notmuch-report` and its JSON configuration file.  You can
+build these files by running `make` in the `devel/nmbug/doc`
+directory.
+
+notmuch-report
+--------------
+
+Renamed from `nmbug-status`.  This script generates reports based on
+notmuch queries, and doesn't really have anything to do with nmbug,
+except for sharing the `NMBGIT` environment variable.  The new name
+focuses on the script's action, instead of its historical association
+with the nmbug workflow.  This should make it more discoverable for
+users looking for generic notmuch reporting tools.
+
+The default configuration file name (extracted from the `config`
+branch of `NBMGIT` has changed from `status-config.json` to
+`notmuch-report.json` so it is more obviously associated with the
+report-generating script.
