+![LOD Terrain](building-blocks-lod-terrain.jpg)
+
+In v0.6.0, the [building-blocks] voxel library brings a couple important features
+for scaling up to large maps:
+
+- pyramids for level of detail
+- multichannel arrays
+
+There is still much work to be done to optimize the voxel mesh LOD at large
+scales and improve the cosmetics of LOD transitions, but the preliminary work
+has allowed us to demonstrate the feasibility of this approach with a new demo
+that you can view [here](https://youtube.com/watch?v=fCP8xZYJiSI).
+
+Full release notes are available on [here][blocks-notes].
