How to update the CHANGELOG

You will have to either create a new version, or add a change to the current one. The top version is either released or unreleased. If unreleased, the version has the UNRELEASED word.

Do the following regarding the version number, according with the type of change you are contributing, and depending the state of the release (UNRELEASED):

released UNRELEASED
adding a fix or minor change create a new minor version (i.e. X.(Y+1) UNRELEASED) do nothing
adding a new library create a new major version (i.e. (X+1).Y UNRELEASED) if the future unreleased version number is minor, renumber it as major

Then, add a bullet with your change.
