-### Added
+This release focus mostly on updating dependencies and cleaning up code around `apso-elasticsearch` project. 
+
+Most notably, we deprecated `CompositeIterator` and improved method signature typing as part of our 
+[scala version update](https://github.com/adzerk/apso/pull/488). We also dropped `ElasticsearchTestkit` and the 
+`apso-log` project. Together, these modifications should allow users of this library to have less dependency update 
+conflicts and provide easier update paths for scala 3 while we wait for a release of `apso` in scala 3. 
+`ElasticsearchBulkInserter` was modified to rely on `ActorLogging` instead of `scala-logging` (through `apso-log`) which
+represented a blocker for scala 3 projects cross-compiling with scala 2.13 and having `apso-elasticsearch` as a 
+dependency.
+
+Users of `apso-log` should migrate to [scala-logging](https://github.com/lightbend-labs/scala-logging) which provides
+`LazyLogging` and `StrictLogging` traits providing the same functionality of `Logging` and `StrictLogging` in `apso`,
+respectively.
+
+Several dependencies were update to their latest versions. You can see all the dependencies and their versions in
+[here](https://github.com/adzerk/apso/blob/v0.19.0/project/Dependencies.scala).
