+--------------
+
+* CPack gained a new :cpack_gen:`CPack External Generator` which is used to
+ export the CPack metadata in a format that other software can understand. The
+ intention of this generator is to allow external packaging software to take
+ advantage of CPack's features when it may not be possible to use CPack for
+ the entire packaging process.
