 Get One Channel From Image
 ==========================
 
-New method :py:meth:`PIL.Image.Image.getchannel` added.
+New method :py:meth:`PIL.Image.Image.getchannel` is added.
 It returns single channel by index or name. For example,
 ``image.getchannel("A")`` will return alpha channel as separate image.
 ``getchannel`` should work up to 6 times faster than ``image.split()[0]``
 in previous Pillow versions.

+TIFF Metadata Changes
+=====================
+
+* TIFF tags with unknown type/quantity now default to being bare
+  values if they are 1 element, where previously they would be a
+  single element tuple. This is only with the new api, not the legacy
+  api. This normalizes the handling of fields, so that the metadata
+  with inferred or image specified counts are handled the same as
+  metadata with count specified in the TIFF spec. 
+* The ``PhotoshopInfo``, ``XMP``, and ``JPEGTables`` tags now have a
+  defined type (bytes) and a count of 1.
+* The ``ImageJMetaDataByteCounts`` tag now has an arbitrary number of
+  items, as there can be multiple items, one for UTF-8, and one for
+  UTF-16.
