+After two major releases of containerd, we have brought back the beta releases to
+introduce a new runtime interface and new APIs. The 1.2 release will be fully
+backwards compatible and has no API breakage. The API additions included in
+this release are focused on making containerd more extensible and cover more
+user cases.
+
+### New V2 Runtime
+
+A new v2 runtime has been added with a stable gRPC interface for managing
+containers through external shims.
+
+This allows runtime authors to easily integrate with containerd over a stable
+API.
+
+Various runtimes can be selected on a per container basis using the `WithRuntime` opt
+or to test via ctr `ctr run --runtime io.containerd.runc.v1`.
+
+[Documentation](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/blob/master/runtime/v2/README.md)
+
+### New Proxy Plugins
+
+A new proxy plugin configuration has been added to allow external snapshotters
+be connected to containerd using gRPC.
+
+[Documentation](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/blob/master/PLUGINS.md)
+
+### Managed /opt directory
+
+A new `Install` method on the containerd client allows users to publish host level
+binaries using standard container build tooling and container distribution tooling
+to download containerd related binaries on their systems.
+
+This can be used for v2 runtime authors to get their runtime shims on an existing
+containerd system. It can also be used to install `runc` and other related tools.
+
+```bash
+> ctr content fetch docker.io/crosbymichael/runc:latest
+> ctr install docker.io/crosbymichael/runc:latest
+```
