+
+<h2>New features</h2>
+
+<p>
+  AspectJ 1.9.8 supports <a href="https://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk/17/">Java 17</a> and its final and preview
+  features, such as:
+</p>
+<ul>
+  <li>sealed classes (final in Java 17, previews in Java 15, 16 and AspectJ 1.9.7)</li>
+  <li>pattern matching for switch</li>
+</ul>
+<p>
+  For features marked as preview on a given JDK, you need to compile with <tt>ajc --enable-preview</tt> and run with
+  <tt>java --enable-preview</tt> on that JDK.
+</p>
+<p>
+  Please note that you cannot run code compiled with preview features on any other JDK than the one used for
+  compilation. For example, records compiled with preview on JDK 15 cannot be used on JDK 16 without recompilation. This
+  is a JVM limitation unrelated to AspectJ. Also, e.g. sealed classes are preview-1 on JDK 15 and preview-2 on JDK 16.
+  You still need to recompile, no matter what.
+</p>
+<p>
+  Furthermore, the <tt>--release N</tt> compiler option for correct cross-compilation to previous JDK bytecode + API
+  versions is now supported by AJC. Previously, the option existed (inherited by ECJ) but did not work correctly.
+</p>
+
+<h3>Code examples</h3>
+
+<p>
+  You can find some sample code in the AspectJ test suite under the respective AspectJ version in which the features
+  were first supported (possibly as JVM preview features):
+</p>
+<ul>
+  <li>
+    <a href="https://github.com/eclipse/org.aspectj/tree/master/tests/features198/compiler_release">
+      Cross-compilation to legacy JDK
+    </a>:
+    An example class which only works correctly on JDK 8 when compiled with <tt>--release 8</tt> due to API changes in
+    the JDK. Simply <tt>-source 8 -target 8</tt> would not be enough in this case.</li>
+  <li>
+    <a href="https://github.com/eclipse/org.aspectj/tree/master/tests/features198/java17">
+      Pattern matching for switch
+    </a>
+  </li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Using LTW on Java 16+</h2>
+
+<p>
+  Please note that if you want to use load-time weaving on Java 16+, the weaving agent collides with
+  <a href="https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/396">JEP 396 (Strongly Encapsulate JDK Internals by Default)</a>. Therefore,
+  you need to set the JVM parameter <tt>--add-opens java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED</tt> in order to enable aspect
+  weaving. This is due to the fact that the weaver uses internal APIs for which we have not found an adequate
+  replacement yet when defining classes in different classloaders.
+</p>
+
+<h2>Other changes and bug fixes</h2>
+
+<ul>
+  <li>
+    The AspectJ compiler no longer works on JDK 8-10. The minimum compile-time requirement for AspectJ is JDK 11 due
+    to upstream changes in the Eclipse Java Compiler (subset of JDT Core), which AspectJ is a fork of. You can still
+    compile to legacy target versions as low as Java 1.3, but the compiler itself (and probably also the load-time
+    weaver) needs JDK 11.
+  </li>
+  <li>Document build profiles and properties in <i>docs/developer/BUILD.md</i></li>
+  <li>Add a guide for setting up an AspectJ development environment in <i>docs/developer/IDE.md</i></li>
+  <li>Allowed JAR saving if <tt>-proceedOnError</tt> is specified</li>
+</ul>
