+## 1.14.1 / unreleased
+
+### Fixed
+
+* Serializing documents now works again with pseudo-IO objects that don't support IO's encoding API (like rubyzip's `Zip::OutputStream`). This was a regression in v1.14.0 due to the fix for [#752](https://github.com/sparklemotion/nokogiri/issues/752) in [#2434](https://github.com/sparklemotion/nokogiri/issues/2434), and was not completely fixed by [#2753](https://github.com/sparklemotion/nokogiri/issues/2753). [[#2773](https://github.com/sparklemotion/nokogiri/issues/2773)]
