+CakePHP 5.1.1
+==============
+
+The CakePHP core team is happy to announce the immediate availability of CakePHP
+5.1.1. This is a maintenance release for the 5.1 branch that fixes several
+community reported issues and regressions. If you are having problems with the framework
+breaking your application when you upgrade from 5.0.11 to 5.1, please open an
+`issue<https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/issues/new?template=bug_report.yml>`__.
+
+Bugfixes
+--------
+
+You can expect the following changes in 5.1.1. See the `changelog
+<https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/compare/5.1.0...5.1.1>`_ for every commit.
+
+- Improve FormHelper's request method inference. The ``method`` option now takes
+  precedence over the value of ``type`` option.
+- Fixed regression in meta tag generation.
+- Fix missing method errors in Console only applications.
+- EventAwareApplicationInterface was added. This interface was is to solve
+  the console compatibility issue.
+- Event hooks are now called application first, plugins after. This aligns
+  behavior with other hooks.
+- I18n message translation now supports ``gettext`` compatible paths.
+- PaginatorHelper will now reset the current page to 1 when changing the per
+  page limit. This reduces the chances of end users getting 404 errors changing
+  their per page limit.
+- The new ``to*()`` type coercion functions are now available as a global functions for
+  applications that prefer to use global functions.
+- Removed inline javascript from disabled pagination buttons. This improves
+  compatibility with strict CSP policies.
+- Fixed a type error if ``Mailer::reset()`` was called without proper setup.
+- Fixed a SQL generation regression for UNION queries in MySQL < 8.
