+I have recently [tagged a v0.2.0 release][tag] of `pimsync`. From the
+[changelog][changelog]:
+
+[tag]: https://git.sr.ht/~whynothugo/pimsync/refs/v0.2.0
+[changelog]: https://git.sr.ht/~whynothugo/pimsync/tree/v0.2.0/item/CHANGELOG.md
+
+> - Attempt to use the provided URL before doing service discovery. If the URL
+>   provided in the configuration file is a valid context URL for a DAV server,
+>   discovery is skipped entirely.
+> - Fixed some erroneous handling of percent-encoded characters in URLs.
+> - Prompt early for all required credentials. This speeds up start-up, since
+>   there's no network IO between prompts.
+> - Several documentation improvements.
+> - Reject configuration file on superfluous parameter.
+
+A minimal website is now available, and the documentation is now available
+online too, all at <https://pimsync.whynothugo.nl/>.
