 ## Releases
+### 9.0.0
+* Removed the `HappyPath.happyAttempt` method that took an `Attempt<Happy>` parameter (closes [#12](https://github.com/theangrydev/business-flows/issues/12)). This change is not backwards compatible. The recommended alternative is described in the migration advice, which can be found [here](https://github.com/theangrydev/business-flows/wiki/9.0.0-Migration-Advice)
+
 ### 8.3.0
 * Add methods `consume` and `consumeOrThrow` to end a flow by performing some action that ends in a void (closes [#8](https://github.com/theangrydev/business-flows/issues/8))
