+FindBoost-fphsa
+---------------
+
+* The :module:`FindBoost` module was reworked to expose a more
+ consistent user experience between its config and module modes
+ and with other find modules in general.
+
+ * A new imported target ``Boost::headers`` is now defined (same
+ as ``Boost::boost``).
+
+ * New output variables ``Boost_VERSION_MACRO``,
+ ``Boost_VERSION_MAJOR``, ``Boost_VERSION_MINOR``,
+ ``Boost_VERSION_PATCH``, and ``Boost_VERSION_COUNT``
+ were added.
+
+ * The internal logic for determining the value for
+ ``Boost_FOUND``, for version and component checks, and
+ for reporting the result to the user was replaced with
+ the :module:`FindPackageHandleStandardArgs` module. (This
+ fixed a bug that sometimes printed wrong status
+ messages in config mode.)
+
+ * The ``QUIET`` argument passed to :command:`find_package` is no
+ longer ignored in config mode.
+
+ * *Known issue*: The CMake package shipped with Boost ``1.70.0``
+ ignores the ``QUIET`` argument passed to :command:`find_package`.
+ This is fixed in the next Boost release.
+
+ * The input switch ``Boost_DETAILED_FAILURE_MSG`` was
+ removed.
