+
+* Mill now provides native executables on windows-amd64, linux-{amd64,aarch64}, and
+macos-{amd64,aarch64}. These can be enabled by adding the `-native` suffix to your `.mill-version`
+file (e.g. `0.12.6-native`), and allows you to run Mill on clean machines without needing
+a pre-installed JVM (Mill will instead download one as necessary)
+
+** Using Mill native binaries requires the latest `./mill` or `./mill.bat` files,
+available for download in the Mill repo
+
+** windows-aarch64 is not supported due to limitations in the upstream Graal native
+image builder https://github.com/oracle/graal/issues/9215[]
