## Release notes
+### Version 0.3
+
+- Add the `-O` option that defines the file where the sky data are cached. If
+ the file does not exist, the sky data structures are built from scracth and
+ serialized into this new file. If this file exists, these data structures are
+ directly read from it, leading to a huge speed up of the `htrdr`
+ pre-processing step. Note that if the provided file exists but is filled with
+ data that do not match the submitted HTGOP, HTCP and HTMie files, an error is
+ detected and the program stops.
+- Rely on the HTSky library to manage the sky data. This library handles the
+ code previously defined into the `htrdr_sky.<c|h>` files. The HTCP, HTGOP,
+ HTMie libraries are thus no more dependencies of `htrdr` since only the
+ `htrdr_sky` files used them.
+
### Version 0.2
- Add the `-b` option that controls the BRDF of the ground geometry.
