+#### Publishing to Sonatype from Local Machine
+
 If you need to publish to Maven central using a local machine, you need to configure [sbt-sonatype](https://github.com/xerial/sbt-sonatype) plugin. First set Sonatype account information (user name and password) in the global sbt settings. To protect your password, never include this file in your project.

 # Release Notes
 
+## 0.9.0
+
+This version support reading and writing [Timestamp values](https://github.com/msgpack/msgpack/blob/master/spec.md#timestamp-extension-type).
+Packer and unpacker interfaces added pack/unpackTimestamp methods.
+
+Timestamp value in MessagePack is an extension type value whose code is -1. If MessgageUnapcker.unpackValue method is used,
+TimestampValue object can be retrieved automatically. If you are using low-level unpack methods (e.g., unpackInt, unpackExtension, etc.),
+you need to read unpackExtensionHeader first, and if extHeader.isTimestampType is true, call unpackTimestamp(ext).
+
+When reading Timestamp values, [java.time.Instant](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/time/Instant.html) will be returned.
+You can extract the unixtime with Instant.getEpochSecond(), unixtime with milliseconds resolution with Instant.toEpochMilli(), and nano-resolution time with Instant.getNano().
+
+As TimestampValue is a sub class of ExtensionValue, your code traversing MessagePack data with MessageUnpacker.unpackValue should require no change.
+
+
+* Added Timestamp support [#565](http://github.com/msgpack/msgpack-java/pull/565) and low-level APIs [#580](https://github.com/msgpack/msgpack-java/pull/580) for
