 ====== ENVI-met Update History ======
+<WRAP left box 99%>
+<fs xx-large>ENVI-met updates for version 5.9.0 (December 25)</fs>
+== UX ==
+  * **ENVI-core: Further reduced simulation times up to 50% compared to 5.8.0** (depending on model area size) through optimized background processes
+  * **BIO-met: Reductions in calculation time through optimized background processes**
+== UI ==
+  * Albero: Added possibility to change photosynthesis parameters
+  * DBManager: Made Albedo of natural soils editable
+== Bugfixes ==
+  * ENVI-core: Albedo of natural soils fixed
+  * **ENVI-core: Fixed a major bug in conservation of energy - this leads to noticeable changes in the results**
+  * ENVI-core: Fixed a rare bug causing large/long simulations with many outputs to crash
+  * ENVI-guide: Fixed a bug when re-saving existing .SIMX --> additional .SIMX extension is not added to the file anymore
+==Other Changes==
+  * ENVI-core: Changed the heat exchange method between building walls and air to a more accurate approach

+<fs xx-large>ENVI-met updates for version 5.8.0 (May 25)</fs>
+=== For everyone ===
+== UX ==
+  * **ENVI-core: Reduced simulation times by 20-50%** (depending on model area size) through optimized background processes
+  * **Leonardo: Decreased loading times when opening outputs (especially larger models)**
+  * ENVI-Guide: Options for automatical download of ERA5 weather data and search for typical days. Direct import in SIMX files.
+  * NetCDF libraries are now bundled with ENVI-met and no longer need to be installed separately
+  * NetCDF files are automatically generated during simulation
+  * Nesting cells are per default not written into the outputs anymore
+  * Added the option to opt-out of email notifications through a tag in the .SIMX
+== UI ==
+  * Added "Advanced Settings" toggle in Leonardo and Spaces to access older options
+== Bugfixes ==
+  * Leonardo: Fixed the display of wind vectors
+  * ENVI-core: Fixed a greening module issue and corrected the amount of reflected shortwave radiation
+  * OAuth: Fixed a bug preventing to log in again after PC went into stand-by
+=== For business users ===
+  * Web-Based Reporting Tool: Easily upload your simulation data to your new personal project cloud, to explore it through our new interactive visualization tool, and to generate professional reports tailored for stakeholders
+  * Running isolated modules: ENVI-met now allows single-module simulations for solar radiation and wind. This enables focused environmental analyses without running a full holistic model, significantly reducing simulation time when only specific factors are needed

-== HeadQuarter/Workspace Manager ==
-    * Bugfix: Workspace and projects could not be created properly.

+<fs xx-large>ENVI-met updates for version 5.7.2 (February 25)</fs>
+== UX/UI ==
+  * Simplified the UI in Leonardo
+  * Introduction of Single Sign-On
+  * Added more output variables
+== Bugfixes ==
+  * Spaces: Small bugfixes
+  * Leonardo: Min/Max Values in 3D were not displayed
+  * Albero: New tree's emissivity was always 0 when created
+  * Fixed a bug in shortwave radiation in greening module
+  * Fixed issues with Chinese characters in project and file names
+  * Waterspray usage fixed
 </WRAP>
+<WRAP left box 99%>
+<fs xx-large>ENVI-met updates for version 5.7.1 (December 24)</fs>
+== UX/UI ==
+  * Reintroducing bitmap feature to Spaces. Please note that using bitmaps for digitizing in Spaces is not a recommended workflow. It is much easier and more reasonable to load the same image file in QGIS, digitize the model area there, and export it in any given resolution by using the Geodata2ENVI-met plugin.
+  * Workspace and project changes are now reflected in the project lists in each program directly
+== Bugfixes ==
+  * UTF8 characters, e.g. Chinese language, are now supported again for project names
+  * Change of workspace is now possible again
+  * Small bugfixes in path handling regarding scenarios and projects
+</WRAP>
 <WRAP left box 99%>
+<fs xx-large>ENVI-met updates for version 5.7 (November 24)</fs>
+== UX/UI ==
+  * The graphical user interface has been overhauled for better useability
+  * New file and project management system: "Central"
+  * Better integration with our QGIS, Rhino and SketchUp plugins
+  * Added sample project to learn more about the model
+== Core model updates ==
+  * Improved stability for simulations (added fail safes)
+  * Addition of PET and UTCI surface output variables to ENVIcore
