 ## Changes affecting backward compatibility
 
-- `-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.
-- A bug where tuple unpacking assignment with a longer tuple on the RHS than the LHS was allowed has been fixed, i.e. code like:
-  ```nim
-  var a, b: int
-  (a, b) = (1, 2, 3, 4)
-  ```
-  will no longer compile.
-- `internalNew` is removed from system, use `new` instead.
+- `-d:nimPreviewHashRef` becomes the default. `hashes.hash` can now support `object` and `ref` (can be overloaded in user code).
 
-- `bindMethod` in `std/jsffi` is deprecated, don't use it with closures.
+- `-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.
 
-- JS backend now supports lambda lifting for closures. Use `--legacy:jsNoLambdaLifting` to emulate old behavior.
+- 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.
 
 ## Standard library additions and changes
 
-[//]: # "Changes:"
-
-- 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.
-- 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`.
-- `nimPreviewHashFarm` has been added to `lib/pure/hashes.nim` to default to a
-64-bit string `Hash` (based upon Google's Farm Hash) which is also faster than
-the present one.  At present, this is incompatible with `--jsbigint=off` mode.
+- `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.
 
-[//]: # "Deprecations:"
+- `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
 
-- Deprecates `system.newSeqUninitialized`, which is replaced by `newSeqUninit`.
+- `std/dirs` adds:
+  - New directory operation procs with `Path` support:
+    - `copyDir` with special file handling options
+    - `copyDirWithPermissions` to recursively preserve attributes
 
-[//]: # "Removals:"
+- `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`.
 
 ## 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.htm#constructor-initializer
-- `member` can be used to attach a procedure to a C++ type.
-- C++ `constructor` now reuses `result` instead creating `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"))
-    ```
-
-- An experimental option `genericsOpenSym` has been added to allow captured
-  symbols in generic routine bodies 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.
-
-  Since this change may affect runtime behavior, the experimental switch
-  `genericsOpenSym` 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.
+- 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
-  const value = "captured"
-  template foo(x: int, body: untyped) =
-    let value {.inject.} = "injected"
-    body
+  # objs.nim
+  import std/hashes
 
-  proc old[T](): string =
-    foo(123):
-      return value # warning: a new `value` has been injected, use `bind` or turn on `experimental:genericsOpenSym`
-  echo old[int]() # "captured"
+  type
+    Obj* = object
+      x*, y*: int
+      z*: string # to be ignored for equality
 
-  {.experimental: "genericsOpenSym".}
+  proc `==`*(a, b: Obj): bool =
+    a.x == b.x and a.y == b.y
 
-  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"
+  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.
+
 ## Compiler changes
 
-- `--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
 
-- koch now allows bootstrapping with `-d:nimHasLibFFI`, replacing the older option of building the compiler directly w/ the `libffi` nimble package in tow.

 ## Changes affecting backward compatibility
 
+- `-d:nimStrictDelete` becomes the default. An index error is produced when the index passed to `system.delete` is out of bounds. Use `-d:nimAuditDelete` to mimic the old behavior for backward 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 the same module where their type has been defined.
+
+- With `-d:nimPreviewNonVarDestructor`, non-var destructors become the default.
+
+- A bug where tuple unpacking assignment with a longer tuple on the RHS than the LHS was allowed has been fixed, i.e. code like:
+  ```nim
+  var a, b: int
+  (a, b) = (1, 2, 3, 4)
+  ```
+  will no longer compile.
+
+- `internalNew` is removed from the `system` module, use `new` instead.
+
+- `bindMethod` in `std/jsffi` is deprecated, don't use it with closures.
+
+- The JS backend now supports lambda lifting for closures. Use `--legacy:jsNoLambdaLifting` to emulate old behaviors.
+
+- The JS backend now supports closure iterators.
+
+- `owner` in `std/macros` is deprecated.
+
+- 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: T, y: U) = echo (x, y)
+  proc foo[T, U](x: var T, y: U) = echo "var ", (x, y)
+
+  proc bar[T]() =
+    foo[float](1, "abc")
+
+  bar[int]() # before: (1.0, "abc"), now: type mismatch, missing generic parameter
+  ```
+
+- `const` values now open a new scope for each constant, meaning symbols
+  declared in them can no longer be used outside or in the value of
+  other constants.
+
+  ```nim
+  const foo = (var a = 1; a)
+  const bar = a # error
+  let baz = a # error
+  ```
+
+- The following POSIX wrappers have had their types changed from signed to
+  unsigned types on OSX and FreeBSD/OpenBSD to correct codegen errors:
+  - `Gid` (was `int32`, is now `uint32`)
+  - `Uid` (was `int32`, is now `uint32`)
+  - `Dev` (was `int32`, is now `uint32` on FreeBSD)
+  - `Nlink` (was `int16`, is now `uint32` on OpenBSD and `uint16` on OSX/other BSD)
+  - `sin6_flowinfo` and `sin6_scope_id` fields of `Sockaddr_in6`
+    (were `int32`, are now `uint32`)
+  - `n_net` field of `Tnetent` (was `int32`, is now `uint32`)
+
+- The `Atomic[T]` type on C++ now uses C11 primitives by default instead of
+  `std::atomic`. To use `std::atomic` instead, `-d:nimUseCppAtomics` can be defined.
+
+
+
+
+
+
 ## Standard library additions and changes
 
+[//]: # "Changes:"
+
+- Changed `std/osfiles.copyFile` to allow specifying `bufferSize` instead of a hard-coded 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.
+- 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.
+
+[//]: # "Deprecations:"
+
+- Deprecates `system.newSeqUninitialized`, which is replaced by `newSeqUninit`.
+
+[//]: # "Removals:"
+
+
+
+
+
+
 ## 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"
+  ```
+
+
+
+
+
 ## Compiler changes
 
+- `--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
 
+- koch now allows bootstrapping with `-d:nimHasLibFFI`, replacing the older option of building the compiler directly w/ the `libffi` nimble package.
