+# dbt-external-tables v0.8.0
+
+This release supports any version (minor and patch) of v1, which means far less need for compatibility releases in the future.
+
+### Features
+- (Snowflake) Support for regex `pattern` in snowpipes ([#111](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-external-tables/pull/111), [#122](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-external-tables/pull/122))
+- (Apache Spark) Real support for partitioned external tables. Note that external sources with `partitions` defined were implicitly skipped. Going forward, sources with partitions defined (excluding those with `using: delta`) will run `alter table ... recover partitions`.
+
+### Under the hood
+- Use standard logging, thereby removing dependency on `dbt_utils` ([#119](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-external-tables/pull/119))
+- Remove `synapse__`-prefixed "passthrough" macros, now that `dbt-synapse` can use `sqlserver__`-prefixed macros instead ([#110](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-external-tables/pull/110))
+
+### Contributors
+- [@JCZuurmond](https://github.com/JCZuurmond) ([#116](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-external-tables/pull/116))
+- [@stumelius](https://github.com/stumelius) ([#111](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-external-tables/pull/111))
+- [@swanderz](https://github.com/swanderz) ([#110](https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-external-tables/pull/110))

+## Integration tests
+
+The files in `public_data` are available in two public storage buckets:
+- `s3://dbt-external-tables-testing`
+- `gs://dbt-external-tables-testing/`
+
+These integration tests confirm that, when staged as external tables, using different databases / file formats / partitioning schemes, the final combined output is equivalent to `seeds/people.csv`.
