+Subspace 1.2
+===
+
+### New Org
+Subspace is now under the *@embarklabs* Org. Versions under @status-im Org have been deprecated.
+
+```bash
+# Using npm
+npm install --save @embarklabs/subspace
+
+# Using yarn
+yarn add @embarklabs/subspace 
+```
+
+### HttpProvider support
+
+Previously Subspace only worked with WebSockets for event subscriptions, and polled for changes only if the `callInterval` option was specified, displaying a warning indicating that the use of providers other than `WebSocketProvider` was discouraged. 
+
+With this release, Subspace will identify if the provider supports subscriptions and use them automatically. If no subscriptions are available, it will assume the provider does not support them and poll the contract for new changes periodically.
+
+Subscriptions can be disabled with the `disableSubscriptions` option.
+
+```Javascript
+let subspace = new Subspace({disableSubscriptions: true})
+```
+
+### GraphQL Example
+
+An example DApp using GraphQL with Subspace can now be found at https://github.com/embarklabs/subspace/tree/master/examples/react-graphql-example1 . 
+
+### Bug fixes
+
+- Fixed obtaining the `from` address when instantiating a Web3 Contract with Subspace tracking functionality
+- `.track()` is added only to event names as they're specified in the ABI. Tracking events by signature is not allowed
+
+### Contributions
+
+Subspace and the entire Embark labs organization are open source. As such we welcome contributions and input from the community using the product.
