+- 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
 
+[//]: # "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`.
 
 ## 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.
