 Users of previous versions of the library should look at the [list of changes](CHANGES.md).
 
 ## News
 
+The [BGV scheme](https://eprint.iacr.org/2011/277) is now available in Microsoft SEAL. Implementation details are described in [this paper](https://eprint.iacr.org/2020/1481.pdf). We truly appreciate [Alibaba Gemini Lab](https://alibaba-gemini-lab.github.io/) for making massive efforts to develop the BGV scheme and integrate it in Microsoft SEAL.

 Starting from version 3.7.2, Microsoft SEAL will push new changes to the `main`, `master`, and `contrib` branches without creating a new version.
 We adopt this approach to merge community contribution and resolve issues in a timely manner.
 These branches will stay ahead of the latest version branch/tag.
 New versions will be created when there are important bug fixes or new features.
