+
+### BREAKING CHANGES
+
+#### Query
+
+[make QueryList notify on changes via an observable](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/3aa2047)
+
+* Before: query.onChange(() => ...);
+* After: query.changes.subscribe((iterable) => {});
+
+#### Router
+
+[introduce new navigate method](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/d9036c6)
+
+Previously, `router.navigate` took a string representing the URL.
+Now, it accepts an array that mirrors the link DSL.
+The old `navigate` method has been renamed to `router.navigateByUrl`.
+Either change your navigation calls to use the DSL (preferred) or
+call `router.navigateByUrl` instead.
+
+* Before:
+router.navigate
+
+* After:
+router.navigateUrl
+
+
+#### Pipes
+
+[add support for pure pipes](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/a8bdb69)
+By default, pipes are pure. This means that an instance of a pipe will be reused and the pipe will be called only when its arguments change.
+
+Before:
+
+@Pipe({name: 'date'}) class DatePipe {} defines an impure pipe.
+
+After:
+
+@Pipe({name: 'date'}) class DatePipe {} defines a pure pipe.
+@Pipe({name: 'date', pure: false}) class DatePipe {} defines an impure pipe.
+
+* Before:
+@Pipe({name: 'date'}) class DatePipe {} defines an impure pipe.
+* After:
+@Pipe({name: 'date'}) class DatePipe {} defines a pure pipe.
+@Pipe({name: 'date', pure: false}) class DatePipe {} defines an impure pipe.
+
+#### ViewQuery
+
+[Implement query update mechanism based on views.](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/5ebeaf7c9bdab8de6d11c7b4c4d0954553196903)
+
+* ViewQuery no longer supports the descendants flag. It queries the whole
+component view by default.
+
+Instead of working with finer grained element injectors, queries now
+iterate through the views as static units of modification of the
+application structure. Views already contain element injectors in the
+correct depth-first preorder.
+
+This allows us to remove children linked lists on element injectors and a
+lot of book keeping that is already present at the view level.
+
+Queries are recalculated using the afterContentChecked and
+afterViewChecked hooks, only during init and after a view container has
+changed.
+
+* Before:
+@ViewQuery(SomeDirective, {descendants: true})) someDirective
+* After:
+@ViewQuery(SomeDirective) someDirective
+
+#### DI
+
+[add support for multi bindings](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/7736964a37d17cf0f1e5381c9a95a33ee863f02f)
+Previously a content binding of a component was visible to the directives in its view with the host constraint.
+This is not the case any more. To access that binding, remove the constraint.
+
+#### Core
