 ### Changes affecting backwards compatibility
 
-- Removed basic2d/basic3d out of the stdlib and into Nimble packages.
+
-  These packages deprecated however, use the ``glm``, ``arraymancer``, ``neo``
-  or another package.
 - Arrays of char cannot be converted to ``cstring`` anymore, pointers to
   arrays of char can! This means ``$`` for arrays can finally exist
   in ``system.nim`` and do the right thing.
-- JSON: Deprecated `getBVal`, `getFNum`, and `getNum` in favour to 
+- ``echo`` now works with strings that contain ``\0`` (the binary zero is not
-  `getBool`, `getFloat`, `getBiggestInt`. Also `getInt` procedure was added.
+  shown) and ``nil`` strings are equal to empty strings.
+- JSON: Deprecated `getBVal`, `getFNum`, and `getNum` in favour to
+  `getBool`, `getFloat`, `getBiggestInt`. Also `getInt` procedure was added.
+- `reExtended` is no longer default for the `re` constructor in the `re`
+  module.
+- The overloading rules changed slightly so that constrained generics are
+  preferred over unconstrained generics. (Bug #6526)
+- It is now possible to forward declare object types so that mutually
+  recursive types can be created across module boundaries. See
+  [package level objects](https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual.html#package-level-objects)
+  for more information.
+- The **unary** ``<`` is now deprecated, for ``.. <`` use ``..<`` for other usages
+  use the ``pred`` proc.
+- We changed how array accesses "from backwards" like ``a[^1]`` or ``a[0..^1]`` are
+  implemented. These are now implemented purely in ``system.nim`` without compiler
+  support. There is a new "heterogenous" slice type ``system.HSlice`` that takes 2
+  generic parameters which can be ``BackwardsIndex`` indices. ``BackwardsIndex`` is
+  produced by ``system.^``.
+  This means if you overload ``[]`` or ``[]=`` you need to ensure they also work
+  with ``system.BackwardsIndex`` (if applicable for the accessors).
+- ``mod`` and bitwise ``and`` do not produce ``range`` subtypes anymore. This
+  turned out to be more harmful than helpful and the language is simpler
+  without this special typing rule.
+- Added ``algorithm.rotateLeft``.
+- ``rationals.toRational`` now uses an algorithm based on continued fractions.
+  This means its results are more precise and it can't run into an infinite loop
+  anymore.
+- Added ``typetraits.$`` as an alias for ``typetraits.name``.
+- ``os.getEnv`` now takes an optional ``default`` parameter that tells ``getEnv``
+  what to return if the environment variable does not exist.
+- Bodies of ``for`` loops now get their own scope:
+
+```nim
+  # now compiles:
+  for i in 0..4:
+    let i = i + 1
+    echo i
+```
+
+- The parsing rules of ``if`` expressions were changed so that multiple
+  statements are allowed in the branches. We found few code examples that
+  now fail because of this change, but here is one:
+
+```nim
+  t[ti] = if exp_negative: '-' else: '+'; inc(ti)
+```
+
+This now needs to be written as:
+
+```nim
+  t[ti] = (if exp_negative: '-' else: '+'); inc(ti)
+```
+
+- To make Nim even more robust the system iterators ``..`` and ``countup``
+  now only accept a single generic type ``T``. This means the following code
+  doesn't die with an "out of range" error anymore:
+
+```nim
+  var b = 5.Natural
+  var a = -5
+  for i in a..b:
+    echo i
+```
+
+- ``formatFloat``/``formatBiggestFloat`` now support formatting floats with zero
+  precision digits. The previous ``precision = 0`` behavior (default formatting)
+  is now available via ``precision = -1``.
+- The ``nim doc`` command is now an alias for ``nim doc2``, the second version of
+  the documentation generator. The old version 1 can still be accessed
+  via the new ``nim doc0`` command.
+- Added ``system.getStackTraceEntries`` that allows you to access the stack
+  trace in a structured manner without string parsing.
+- Added ``sequtils.mapLiterals`` for easier construction of array and tuple
+  literals.
+- Added ``parseutils.parseSaturatedNatural``.
+- ``atomic`` and ``generic`` are no longer keywords in Nim. ``generic`` used to be
+  an alias for ``concept``, ``atomic`` was not used for anything.
+- Moved from stdlib into Nimble packages:
+  - [``basic2d``](https://github.com/nim-lang/basic2d)
+    _deprecated: use ``glm``, ``arraymancer``, ``neo``, or another package instead_
+  - [``basic3d``](https://github.com/nim-lang/basic3d)
+    _deprecated: use ``glm``, ``arraymancer``, ``neo``, or another package instead_
+  - [``gentabs``](https://github.com/lcrees/gentabs)
+  - [``libuv``](https://github.com/lcrees/libuv)
+  - [``numeric``](https://github.com/lcrees/polynumeric)
+  - [``poly``](https://github.com/lcrees/polynumeric)
+  - [``pdcurses``](https://github.com/lcrees/pdcurses)
+  - [``romans``](https://github.com/lcrees/romans)
+
+- Added ``system.runnableExamples`` to make examples in Nim's documentation easier
+  to write and test. The examples are tested as the last step of
+  ``nim doc``.
+- Nim's ``rst2html`` command now supports the testing of code snippets via an RST
+  extension that we called ``:test:``::
+
+  ```rst
+    .. code-block:: nim
+        :test:
+      # shows how the 'if' statement works
+      if true: echo "yes"
+  ```
+- The ``[]`` proc for strings now raises an ``IndexError`` exception when
+  the specified slice is out of bounds. See issue
+  [#6223](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/6223) for more details.
+  You can use ``substr(str, start, finish)`` to get the old behaviour back,
+  see [this commit](https://github.com/nim-lang/nimbot/commit/98cc031a27ea89947daa7f0bb536bcf86462941f) for an example.
+- ``strutils.split`` and ``strutils.rsplit`` with an empty string and a
+  separator now returns that empty string.
+  See issue [#4377](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/4377).
+- The experimental overloading of the dot ``.`` operators now take
+  an ``untyped``` parameter as the field name, it used to be
+  a ``static[string]``. You can use ``when defined(nimNewDot)`` to make
+  your code work with both old and new Nim versions.
+  See [special-operators](https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual.html#special-operators)
+  for more information.
+- Added ``macros.unpackVarargs``.
+- The memory manager now uses a variant of the TLSF algorithm that has much
+  better memory fragmentation behaviour. According
+  to [http://www.gii.upv.es/tlsf/](http://www.gii.upv.es/tlsf/) the maximum
+  fragmentation measured is lower than 25%. As a nice bonus ``alloc`` and
+  ``dealloc`` became O(1) operations.
+- The behavior of ``$`` has been changed for all standard library collections. The
+  collection-to-string implementations now perform proper quoting and escaping of
+  strings and chars.
+- The ``random`` procs in ``random.nim`` have all been deprecated. Instead use
+  the new ``rand`` procs. The module now exports the state of the random
+  number generator as type ``Rand`` so multiple threads can easily use their
+  own random number generators that do not require locking. For more information
+  about this rename see issue [#6934](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/6934)
+- The compiler is now more consistent in its treatment of ambiguous symbols:
+  Types that shadow procs and vice versa are marked as ambiguous (bug #6693).
+- ``yield`` (or ``await`` which is mapped to ``yield``) never worked reliably
+  in an array, seq or object constructor and is now prevented at compile-time.
+- For string formatting / interpolation a new module
+  called [strformat](https://nim-lang.org/docs/strformat.html) has been added
+  to the stdlib.
+- codegenDecl pragma now works for the JavaScript backend. It returns an empty string for
+  function return type placeholders.
+- Asynchronous programming for the JavaScript backend using the `asyncjs` module.
+- Extra semantic checks for procs with noreturn pragma: return type is not allowed,
+  statements after call to noreturn procs are no longer allowed.
+- Noreturn proc calls and raising exceptions branches are now skipped during common type
+  deduction in if and case expressions. The following code snippets now compile:
+```nim
+import strutils
+let str = "Y"
+let a = case str:
+  of "Y": true
+  of "N": false
+  else: raise newException(ValueError, "Invalid boolean")
+let b = case str:
+  of nil, "": raise newException(ValueError, "Invalid boolean")
+  elif str.startsWith("Y"): true
+  elif str.startsWith("N"): false
+  else: false
+let c = if str == "Y": true
+  elif str == "N": false
+  else:
+    echo "invalid bool"
+    quit("this is the end")
+```
+- Proc [toCountTable](https://nim-lang.org/docs/tables.html#toCountTable,openArray[A]) now produces a `CountTable` with values correspoding to the number of occurrences of the key in the input. It used to produce a table with all values set to `1`.
+
+Counting occurrences in a sequence used to be:
+
+```nim
+let mySeq = @[1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 4]
+var myCounter = initCountTable[int]()
+
+for item in mySeq:
+  myCounter.inc item
+```
+
+Now, you can simply do:
+
+```nim
+let
+  mySeq = @[1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 4]
+  myCounter = mySeq.toCountTable()
+```
+
+- Added support for casting between integers of same bitsize in VM (compile time and nimscript).
+  This allow to among other things to reinterpret signed integers as unsigned.
