 ### New and noteworthy
 
+#### Dart support
+
+Thanks to the contribution from [Maikel Steneker](https://github.com/maikelsteneker), and built on top of the ongoing efforts to fully support Antlr-based languages,
+PMD now has CPD support for [Dart](https://www.dartlang.org/).
+
+Being based on a proper Antlr grammar, CPD can:
+*   ignore comments
+*   ignore imports / libraries
+*   honor [comment-based suppressions](pmd_userdocs_cpd.html#suppression)
+
