 ## Status
 
-TinyUSDZ is in v0.8.0 release candidate.
 Core loading feature(both USDA and USDC) is now working and production-grade(And no seg fault for corrupted USDA/USDC/USDZ input).
 Somewhat working Tydra framwork for rendering USD model with OpenGL/Vulkan-like renderer. https://github.com/syoyo/tinyusdz/issues/148
 
-v0.8.0 is basically Flattened scene only(i.e, USDA/USDC generated by using pxrUSD's `usdcat --flatten` or USDZ scene).
-Composition features are work-in-progress(experimental Composition feature support in v0.8.0. Better composition feature in next major release v0.9.0(Q2/2025 expected) planned)
-
-Remaining tasks for v0.8.0 release are writing examples, demos and utility functions(Tydra. Especially access to Material/Shader attributes).
+v0.9.0 has better JS/WASM support and some USD composition features(including composition in JS/WASM).
 
 * [x] USDZ/USDC(Crate) parser
   * USDC Crate version v0.8.0(most commonly used version as of 2022 Nov) or higher is supported.
