+**Maintenance release for Akka.NET v1.0.5**
+This patch consists of many bug fixes, performance improvements, as well as the addition of two brand new alpha modules for Akka.Cluster users.
+
+**Akka.Cluster.Tools** and **Akka.Cluster.Sharding**
+The biggest part of this release is the addition of [Akka.Cluster.Tools](http://getakka.net/docs/clustering/cluster-tools) and [Akka.Cluster.Sharding](http://getakka.net/docs/clustering/cluster-sharding), both of which are available now as pre-release packages on NuGet.
+
+```
+PM> Install-Package Akka.Cluster.Tools -pre
+```
+and
+
+```
+PM> Install-Package Akka.Cluster.Sharding -pre
+```
+
+Respectively, these two packages extend Akka.Cluster to do the following:
+
+1. Distributed pub/sub (Akka.Cluster.Tools)
+2. `ClusterClient` - subscribe to changes in cluster availability without actually being part of the cluster itself. (Akka.Cluster.Tools)
+3. `ClusterSingleton` - guarantee a single instance of a specific actor throughout the cluster. (Akka.Cluster.Tools)
+4. Sharding - partition data into durable stores (built on top of Akka.Persistence) in a manner that is fault-tolerant and recoverable across thecluster. (Akka.Cluster.Sharding)
+
+Check out the documentation for more details!
