@ -28,12 +28,16 @@ Highlights:
clock, to facilitate implementation of local processing on DRTIO satellites, and to slightly
reduce RTIO latency.
* Support for DRTIO-over-EEM, used with Shuttler.
* Support for WRPLL low-noise clock recovery.
* Enabled event spreading on DRTIO satellites, using high watermark for lane switching.
* Added channel names to RTIO error messages.
* The RTIO analyzer is now proxied by ``aqctl_coreanalyzer_proxy`` typically running on the master
machine, similarly to ``aqctl_moninj_proxy``.
* GUI:
- Integrated waveform analyzer, removing the need for external VCD viewers such as GtkWave.
- Implemented Applet Request Interfaces which allow applets to modify datasets and set the
current values of widgets in the dashboard's experiment windows.
- Implemented a new EntryArea widget which allows argument entry widgets to be used in applets.
- Implemented a new ``EntryArea`` widget which allows argument entry widgets to be used in applets.
- The "Close all applets" command (shortcut: Ctrl-Alt-W) now ignores docked applets,
making it a convenient way to clean up after exploratory work without destroying a
carefully arranged default workspace.

* Persistent datasets are now stored in a LMDB database for improved performance.
* Python's built-in types (such as ``float``, or ``List[...]``) can now be used in type annotations on
kernel functions.
* Full Python 3.11 support.
* MSYS2 packaging for Windows, which replaces Conda. Conda packages are still available to
support legacy installations, but may be removed in a future release.
* Experiments can now be submitted with revisions set to a branch / tag name instead of only git hashes.
* Grabber image input now has an optional timeout.
* On NAR3-supported devices (Kasli-SoC, ZC706), when a Rust panic occurs, a minimal environment is started
where the network and ``artiq_coremgmt`` can be used. This allows the user to inspect logs, change
configuration options, update the firmware, and reboot the device.
* Full Python 3.11 support.
