+1.5.0 (2013/04/01)
+------------------
+* Fixed [#13](https://github.com/linkedin/linkedin-zookeeper/issues/13) _zk.sh get does not work_
+* Implemented [#12](https://github.com/linkedin/linkedin-zookeeper/issues/12) _Upgrade to latest versions_
+* Fixed [#10](https://github.com/linkedin/linkedin-zookeeper/issues/10) _Make zk.sh use $JAVA\_HOME_
+
+This release uses the latest version of ZooKeeper (3.4.5). Thanks to Patrick Hunt for the pull request. The build now uses gradle 1.4.0 and can be invoked using the wrapper (``gradlew``) at the root.
+
+Note that there is an [issue with ZooKeeper](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-1661) and the workaround for it is to use ``127.0.0.1`` instead of ``localhost``.
