-- `-d:nimPreviewFloatRoundtrip` becomes the default. `system.addFloat` and `system.$` now can produce string representations of
-floating point numbers that are minimal in size and possess round-trip and correct
-rounding guarantees (via the
-[Dragonbox](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jk-jeon/dragonbox/master/other_files/Dragonbox.pdf) algorithm). Use `-d:nimLegacySprintf` to emulate old behaviors.
-
-- The `default` parameter of `tables.getOrDefault` has been renamed to `def` to
-  avoid conflicts with `system.default`, so named argument usage for this
-  parameter like `getOrDefault(..., default = ...)` will have to be changed.
-
-- With `-d:nimPreviewCheckedClose`, the `close` function in the `std/syncio` module now raises an IO exception in case of an error.
-
-- Unknown warnings and hints now gives warnings `warnUnknownNotes` instead of
-errors.
-
-- With `-d:nimPreviewAsmSemSymbol`, backticked symbols are type checked in the `asm/emit` statements.
-
-- The bare `except:` now panics on `Defect`. Use `except Exception:` or `except Defect:` to catch `Defect`. `--legacy:noPanicOnExcept` is provided for a transition period.
-
-- With `-d:nimPreviewCStringComparisons`, comparsions (`<`, `>`, `<=`, `>=`) between cstrings switch from reference semantics to value semantics like `==` and `!=`.
-
-- `std/parsesql` has been moved to a nimble package, use `nimble` or `atlas` to install it.
-
-- With `-d:nimPreviewDuplicateModuleError`, importing two modules that share the same name becomes a compile-time error. This includes importing the same module more than once. Use `import foo as foo1` (or other aliases) to avoid collisions.
-
-- Adds the switch `--mangle:nim|cpp`, which selects `nim` or `cpp` style name mangling when used with `debuginfo` on, defaults to `cpp`.
-
-- The second parameter of `succ`, `pred`, `inc`, and `dec` in `system` now accepts `SomeInteger` (previously `Ordinal`).
-
-- Bitshift operators (`shl`, `shr`, `ashr`) now apply bitmasking to the right operand in the C/C++/VM/JS backends.
-
-- Adds a new warning enabled by `--warning:ImplicitRangeConversion` that detects downsizing implicit conversions to range types (e.g., `int -> range[0..255]` or `range[1..256] -> range[0..255]`) that could cause runtime panics. Safe conversions like `range[0..255] -> range[0..65535]` and explicit casts are not warned on.
+- `-d:nimStrictDelete` becomes the default. An index error is produced when the index passed to `system.delete` was out of bounds. Use `-d:nimAuditDelete` to mimic the old behavior for backwards compatibility.
+- The default user-agent in `std/httpclient` has been changed to `Nim-httpclient/<version>` instead of `Nim httpclient/<version>` which was incorrect according to the HTTP spec.
+- Methods now support implementations based on a VTable by using `--experimental:vtables`. Methods are then confined to be in the same module where their type has been defined.
+- With `-d:nimPreviewNonVarDestructor`, non-var destructors become the default.
 
 ## Standard library additions and changes
 
-[//]: # "Additions:"
-
-- `setutils.symmetricDifference` along with its operator version
-  `` setutils.`-+-` `` and in-place version `setutils.toggle` have been added
-  to more efficiently calculate the symmetric difference of bitsets.
-- `strutils.multiReplace` overload for character set replacements in a single pass.
-	Useful for string sanitation. Follows existing multiReplace semantics.
-
-- `std/files` adds:
-  - Exports `CopyFlag` enum and `FilePermission` type for fine-grained control of file operations
-  - New file operation procs with `Path` support:
-    - `getFilePermissions`, `setFilePermissions` for managing permissions
-    - `tryRemoveFile` for file deletion
-    - `copyFile` with configurable buffer size and symlink handling
-    - `copyFileWithPermissions` to preserve file attributes
-    - `copyFileToDir` for copying files into directories
-
-- `std/dirs` adds:
-  - New directory operation procs with `Path` support:
-    - `copyDir` with special file handling options
-    - `copyDirWithPermissions` to recursively preserve attributes
-
-- `system.setLenUninit` now supports refc, JS and VM backends.
-
 [//]: # "Changes:"
 
-- `std/math` The `^` symbol now supports floating-point as exponent in addition to the Natural type.
-- `min`, `max`, and `sequtils`' `minIndex`, `maxIndex` and `minmax` for `openArray`s now accept a comparison function.
-- `system.substr` implementation now uses `copymem` (wrapped C `memcpy`) for copying data, if available at compilation.
-- `system.newStringUninit` is now considered free of side-effects allowing it to be used with `--experimental:strictFuncs`.
+- Changed `std/osfiles.copyFile` to allow to specify `bufferSize` instead of a hardcoded one.
+- Changed `std/osfiles.copyFile` to use `POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL` hints for kernel-level aggressive sequential read-aheads.
+- `std/htmlparser` has been moved to a nimble package, use `nimble` or `atlas` to install it.
+
+[//]: # "Additions:"
+
+- Added `newStringUninit` to system, which creates a new string of length `len` like `newString` but with uninitialized content.
+- Added `setLenUninit` to system, which doesn't initalize
+slots when enlarging a sequence.
+- Added `hasDefaultValue` to `std/typetraits` to check if a type has a valid default value.
+- Added Viewport API for the JavaScript targets in the `dom` module.
+
+[//]: # "Deprecations:"
+
+- Deprecates `system.newSeqUninitialized`, which is replaced by `newSeqUninit`.
+
+[//]: # "Removals:"
+
 
 ## Language changes
 
-- An experimental option `--experimental:typeBoundOps` has been added that
-  implements the RFC https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/380.
-  This makes the behavior of interfaces like `hash`, `$`, `==` etc. more
-  reliable for nominal types across indirect/restricted imports.
-
-  ```nim
-  # objs.nim
-  import std/hashes
-
-  type
-    Obj* = object
-      x*, y*: int
-      z*: string # to be ignored for equality
-
-  proc `==`*(a, b: Obj): bool =
-    a.x == b.x and a.y == b.y
-
-  proc hash*(a: Obj): Hash =
-    $!(hash(a.x) &! hash(a.y))
-  ```
-
-  ```nim
-  # main.nim
-  {.experimental: "typeBoundOps".}
-  from objs import Obj # objs.hash, objs.`==` not imported
-  import std/tables
-
-  var t: Table[Obj, int]
-  t[Obj(x: 3, y: 4, z: "debug")] = 34
-  echo t[Obj(x: 3, y: 4, z: "ignored")] # 34
-  ```
-
-  See the [experimental manual](https://nim-lang.github.io/Nim/manual_experimental.html#typeminusbound-overloads)
-  for more information.
+- `noInit` can be used in types and fields to disable member initializers in the C++ backend. 
+- C++ custom constructors initializers see https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual_experimental.htm#constructor-initializer
+- `member` can be used to attach a procedure to a C++ type.
+- C++ `constructor` now reuses `result` instead creating `this`.
 
 ## Compiler changes
 
-- Fixed a bug where `sizeof(T)` inside a `typedesc` template called from a generic type's
-  `when` clause would error with "'sizeof' requires '.importc' types to be '.completeStruct'".
-  The issue was that `hasValuelessStatics` in `semtypinst.nim` didn't recognize
-  `tyTypeDesc(tyGenericParam)` as an unresolved generic parameter.
+- `--nimcache` using a relative path as the argument in a config file is now relative to the config file instead of the current directory.
 
 ## Tool changes
 
-- Added `--raw` flag when generating JSON docs to not render markup.
-- Added `--stdinfile` flag to name of the file used when running program from stdin (defaults to `stdinfile.nim`)
-- Added `--styleCheck:warning` flag to treat style check violations as warnings.
+- koch now allows bootstrapping with `-d:nimHasLibFFI`, replacing the older option of building the compiler directly w/ the `libffi` nimble package in tow.
 
-## Documentation changes
-
-- Added documentation for the `completeStruct` pragma in the manual.

-- Ambiguous type symbols in generic procs and templates now generate symchoice nodes.
-  Previously; in templates they would error immediately at the template definition,
-  and in generic procs a type symbol would arbitrarily be captured, losing the
-  information of the other symbols. This means that generic code can now give
-  errors for ambiguous type symbols, and macros operating on generic proc AST
-  may encounter symchoice nodes instead of the arbitrarily resolved type symbol nodes.
-
-- Partial generic instantiation of routines is no longer allowed. Previously
-  it compiled in niche situations due to bugs in the compiler.
-
-  ```nim

-  proc foo[T, U](x: var T, y: U) = echo "var ", (x, y)
-

-
-  bar[int]() # before: (1.0, "abc"), now: type mismatch, missing generic parameter
-  ```

 ## Standard library additions and changes
 
-[//]: # "Changes:"

-- Changed `std/osfiles.copyFile` to allow specifying `bufferSize` instead of a hard-coded one.

-- `std/htmlparser` has been moved to a nimble package, use `nimble` or `atlas` to install it.
-- Changed `std/os.copyDir` and `copyDirWithPermissions` to allow skipping special "file" objects like FIFOs, device files, etc on Unix by specifying a `skipSpecial` parameter.
-
-[//]: # "Additions:"
-
-- Added `newStringUninit` to the `system` module, which creates a new string of length `len` like `newString` but with uninitialized content.
-- Added `setLenUninit` to the `system` module, which doesn't initialize
-slots when enlarging a sequence.
-- Added `hasDefaultValue` to `std/typetraits` to check if a type has a valid default value.
-- Added `rangeBase` to `std/typetraits` to obtain the base type of a range type or
-  convert a value with a range type to its base type.
-- Added Viewport API for the JavaScript targets in the `dom` module.
-- Added `toSinglyLinkedRing` and `toDoublyLinkedRing` to `std/lists` to convert from `openArray`s.
-- ORC: To be enabled via `nimOrcStats` there is a new API called `GC_orcStats` that can be used to query how many
-  objects the cyclic collector did free. If the number is zero that is a strong indicator that you can use `--mm:arc`
-  instead of `--mm:orc`.
-- A `$` template is provided for `Path` in `std/paths`.
-- `std/hashes.hash(x:string)` changed to produce a 64-bit string `Hash` (based
-on Google's Farm Hash) which is also often faster than the present one.  Define
-`nimStringHash2` to get the old values back.  `--jsbigint=off` mode always only
-produces the old values.  This may impact your automated tests if they depend
-on hash order in some obvious or indirect way.  Using `sorted` or `OrderedTable`
-is often an easy workaround.
-

 ## Language changes
 
-- `noInit` can be used in types and fields to disable member initializers in the C++ backend.
-
-- C++ custom constructors initializers see https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual_experimental.html#constructor-initializer
-
-- `member` can be used to attach a procedure to a C++ type.
-
-- Inside a C++ constructor, `result` can be used to access the created object rather than `this`.
-
-- Tuple unpacking changes:
-  - Tuple unpacking assignment now supports using underscores to discard values.
-    ```nim
-    var a, c: int
-    (a, _, c) = (1, 2, 3)
-    ```
-  - Tuple unpacking variable declarations now support type annotations, but
-    only for the entire tuple.
-    ```nim
-    let (a, b): (int, int) = (1, 2)
-    let (a, (b, c)): (byte, (float, cstring)) = (1, (2, "abc"))
-    ```
-
-- The experimental option `--experimental:openSym` has been added to allow
-  captured symbols in generic routine and template bodies respectively to be
-  replaced by symbols injected locally by templates/macros at instantiation
-  time. `bind` may be used to keep the captured symbols over the injected ones
-  regardless of enabling the option, but other methods like renaming the
-  captured symbols should be used instead so that the code is not affected by
-  context changes.
-
-  Since this change may affect runtime behavior, the experimental switch
-  `openSym` needs to be enabled; and a warning is given in the case where an
-  injected symbol would replace a captured symbol not bound by `bind` and
-  the experimental switch isn't enabled.
-
-  ```nim
-  const value = "captured"
-  template foo(x: int, body: untyped): untyped =
-    let value {.inject.} = "injected"
-    body
-
-  proc old[T](): string =
-    foo(123):
-      return value # warning: a new `value` has been injected, use `bind` or turn on `experimental:openSym`
-  echo old[int]() # "captured"
-
-  template oldTempl(): string =
-    block:
-      foo(123):
-        value # warning: a new `value` has been injected, use `bind` or turn on `experimental:openSym`
-  echo oldTempl() # "captured"
-
-  {.experimental: "openSym".}
-
-  proc bar[T](): string =
-    foo(123):
-      return value
-  assert bar[int]() == "injected" # previously it would be "captured"
-
-  proc baz[T](): string =
-    bind value
-    foo(123):
-      return value
-  assert baz[int]() == "captured"
-
-  template barTempl(): string =
-    block:
-      foo(123):
-        value
-  assert barTempl() == "injected" # previously it would be "captured"
-
-  template bazTempl(): string =
-    bind value
-    block:
-      foo(123):
-        value
-  assert bazTempl() == "captured"
-  ```
-
-  This option also generates a new node kind `nnkOpenSym` which contains
-  exactly 1 `nnkSym` node. In the future this might be merged with a slightly
-  modified `nnkOpenSymChoice` node but macros that want to support the
-  experimental feature should still handle `nnkOpenSym`, as the node kind would
-  simply not be generated as opposed to being removed.
-
-  Another experimental switch `genericsOpenSym` exists that enables this behavior
-  at instantiation time, meaning templates etc can enable it specifically when
-  they are being called. However this does not generate `nnkOpenSym` nodes
-  (unless the other switch is enabled) and so doesn't reflect the regular
-  behavior of the switch.
-
-  ```nim
-  const value = "captured"
-  template foo(x: int, body: untyped): untyped =
-    let value {.inject.} = "injected"
-    {.push experimental: "genericsOpenSym".}
-    body
-    {.pop.}
-
-  proc bar[T](): string =
-    foo(123):
-      return value
-  echo bar[int]() # "injected"
-
-  template barTempl(): string =
-    block:
-      var res: string
-      foo(123):
-        res = value
-      res
-  assert barTempl() == "injected"
-  ```

+====================================
+  Incremental Recompilations
+====================================
+
+We split the Nim compiler into a frontend and a backend.
+The frontend produces a set of `.rod` files. Every `.nim` module
+produces its own `.rod` file.
+
+- The IR must be a faithful representation of the AST in memory.
+- The backend can do its own caching but doesn't have to. In the
+  current implementation the backend also caches its results.
+
+Advantage of the "set of files" vs the previous global database:
+- By construction, we either read from the `.rod` file or from the
+  `.nim` file, there can be no inconsistency. There can also be no
+  partial updates.
+- No dependency to external packages (SQLite). SQLite simply is too
+  slow and the old way of serialization was too slow too. We use a
+  format designed for Nim and expect to base further tools on this
+  file format.
+
+References to external modules must be (moduleId, symId) pairs.
+The symbol IDs are module specific. This way no global ID increment
+mechanism needs to be implemented that we could get wrong. ModuleIds
+are rod-file specific too.
+
+
+
+Global state
+------------
+
+There is no global state.
+
+Rod File Format
+---------------
+
+It's a simple binary file format. `rodfiles.nim` contains some details.
+
+
+Backend
+-------
+
+Nim programmers have to come to enjoy whole-program dead code elimination,
+by default. Since this is a "whole program" optimization, it does break
+modularity. However, thanks to the packed AST representation we can perform
+this global analysis without having to unpack anything. This is basically
+a mark&sweep GC algorithm:
+
+- Start with the top level statements. Every symbol that is referenced
+  from a top level statement is not "dead" and needs to be compiled by
+  the backend.
+- Every symbol referenced from a referenced symbol also has to be
+  compiled.
+
+Caching logic: Only if the set of alive symbols is different from the
+last run, the module has to be regenerated.

+## Overview
+## ========
+## `RodFile` represents a Rod File (versioned binary format), and the
+## associated data for common interactions such as IO and error tracking
+## (`RodFileError`). The file format broken up into sections (`RodSection`)
+## and preceded by a header (see: `cookie`). The precise layout, section
+## ordering and data following the section are determined by the user. See
+## `ic.loadRodFile`.
+##
+## A basic but "wrong" example of the lifecycle:
+## ---------------------------------------------
+## 1. `create` or `open`        - create a new one or open an existing
+## 2. `storeHeader`             - header info
+## 3. `storePrim` or `storeSeq` - save your stuff
+## 4. `close`                   - and we're done
+##
+## Now read the bits below to understand what's missing.
+##
+## ### Issues with the Example
+## Missing Sections:
+## This is a low level API, so headers and sections need to be stored and
+## loaded by the user, see `storeHeader` & `loadHeader` and `storeSection` &
+## `loadSection`, respectively.
+##
+## No Error Handling:
+## The API is centered around IO and prone to error, each operation checks or
+## sets the `RodFile.err` field. A user of this API needs to handle these
+## appropriately.
+##
+## API Notes
+## =========
+##
+## Valid inputs for Rod files
+## --------------------------
+## ASTs, hopes, dreams, and anything as long as it and any children it may have
+## support `copyMem`. This means anything that is not a pointer and that does not contain a pointer. At a glance these are:
+## * string
+## * objects & tuples (fields are recursed)
+## * sequences AKA `seq[T]`
+##
+## Note on error handling style
+## ----------------------------
+## A flag based approach is used where operations no-op in case of a
+## preexisting error and set the flag if they encounter one.
+##
+## Misc
+## ----
+## * 'Prim' is short for 'primitive', as in a non-sequence type

-## NIF-based C/C++ code generator backend.
-##
-## This module implements C code generation from precompiled NIF files.
-## It traverses the module dependency graph starting from the main module
-## and generates C code for all reachable modules.
-##
-## Usage:
-##   1. Compile modules to NIF: nim m mymodule.nim
-##   2. Generate C from NIF: nim nifc myproject.nim
