## 0.4.0 (UNRELEASED)

__BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBILITIES:__
  * api: Tasks are no longer allowed to have slashes in their name [GH-1210]

    evaluations under high contention [GH-1199]
  * core: Scheduler stores placement failures in evaluations, no longer
    generating failed allocations for debug information [GH-1188]
  * api: Faster JSON response encoding [GH-1182]
  * api: Gzip compress HTTP API requests [GH-1203]
  * api: Plan api introduced for the Job endpoint [GH-1168]

    if the artifact exists inside a chrooted directory {GH-1262]

__BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBILITIES:__
  * Stdout and Stderr log files of tasks have moved from task/local to
    alloc/logs [GH-851]
  * Any users of the runtime environment variable `$NOMAD_PORT_` will need to
    update to the new `${NOMAD_ADDR_}` varriable [GH-704]

    periods from the service name before running the job [GH-770]

    ID, the node should be drained before Nomad is updated and the data_dir
    should be deleted before starting for the first time [GH-675]
  * Users of custom restart policies should update to the new syntax which adds
    a `mode` field. The `mode` can be either `fail` or `delay`. The default for
    `batch` and `service` jobs is `fail` and `delay` respectively [GH-594]
  * All jobs that interpret variables in constraints or driver configurations
    will need to be updated to the new syntax which wraps the interpreted
    variable in curly braces. (`$node.class` becomes `${node.class}`) [GH-760]
