* [remove `ffi::PublicKey::blank`](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/232) and replace with unsafe [`ffi::PublicKey::new` and `ffi::PublicKey::from_array_unchecked`](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/253/); similar for all other FFI types
* [make the global-context feature depend on the rand-std feature](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/246)
* [add a lexicographic ordering to `PublicKey`](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/248) which does **not** match the ordering used by Bitcoin Core (matching this would be impossible as it requires tracking a compressedness flag, which libsecp256k1 does not have)
* [require use of new `AlignedType` in preallocated-context API to enforce alignment requirements](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/233); previously it was possible to get UB by using misaligned memory stores
* [enforce correct alignment when using preallocated context API](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/233)
* [stop using cargo features for dangerous build-breaking options, require setting `RUSTFLAGS` instead](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/263)
* [implement low-R signing and function to grind even smaller signatures](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/259)
* [remove endomorphism feature, following upstream in enabling it by default](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/257)
* A [complete API overhaul](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/27) to move many runtime errors into compiletime errors
* Update [libsecp256k1 to `1e6f1f5ad5e7f1e3ef79313ec02023902bf8`](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/32). Should be no visible changes.
* [Remove `PublicKey::new()` and `PublicKey::is_valid()`](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/37) since `new` was unsafe and it should now be impossible to create invalid `PublicKey` objects through the API
* [Reintroduce serde support](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/38) behind a feature gate using serde 1.0
