+## [3.0.0a4] - 2023-12-05
+
+## Highlights
+
+This release makes a breaking change to the serialized output of the
+CLI (and by extension, any of the serialized outputs of the API).
+
+* The serialised output for `sqlfluff lint` now contains more information
+  about the span of linting issues and initial proposed fixes. Beside the *new*
+  fields, the original fields of `line_pos` and `line_no` have been
+  renamed to `start_line_pos` and `start_line_no`, to distinguish
+  them from the new fields starting `end_*`.
+
+* The default `annotation_level` set by the `--annotation-level`
+  option on the `sqlfluff lint` command has been changed from `notice`
+  to `warning`, to better distinguish linting errors from warnings, which
+  always now have the level of `notice`. This is only relevant when using
+  the `github-annotation` or `github-annotation-native` formats.
+
