-## coercing values in the option() function is deprecated
-
-Currently code such as:
-```meson
-option('foo', type : 'boolean', value : 'false')
-```
-works, because Meson coerces `'false'` to `false`.
-
-This should be avoided, and will now result in a deprecation warning.

-## `sudo meson install` now drops privileges when rebuilding targets
-
-It is common to install projects using sudo, which should not affect build
-outputs but simply install the results. Unfortunately, since the ninja backend
-updates a state file when run, it's not safe to run ninja as root at all.
-
-It has always been possible to carefully build with:
-
-```
-ninja && sudo meson install --no-rebuild
-```
-
-Meson now tries to be extra safe as a general solution. `sudo meson install`
-will attempt to rebuild, but has learned to run `ninja` as the original
-(pre-sudo or pre-doas) user, ensuring that build outputs are generated/compiled
-as non-root.

-## `meson install` now supports user-preferred root elevation tools
-
-Previously, when installing a project, if any files could not be installed due
-to insufficient permissions the install process was automatically re-run using

-Meson will no longer attempt privilege elevation at all, when not running
-interactively.
