+Release Notes
+-------------
+0.2.0 heavy project refactoring, splitting source files, introducing jshint (preparation of next steps)
+
+Next Steps
+----------
+* Implementing unit tests (now only dummy test implemented)
+* Updating uritemplate-test (mnot added some new tests and removed some wrong. At the moment I cannot update, because the new tests will not pass)
+* A new method extract(uri), which tries to extract the variables from a given uri.
+  This is harder, than you might think
