+## Minimum required Python version updated to 3.7
+
+Meson now requires at least Python version 3.7 to run as Python 3.6 reached EOL
+on December 2021. In practice this should only affect people developing on
+Ubuntu Bionic, who will need to manually install python3.8 from the official
+repositories.

+## Support for ARM Ltd. Clang toolchain
+
+Support for the `armltdclang` compiler has been added. This differs from the
+existing `armclang` toolchain in that it is a fork of Clang by ARM Ltd. and
+supports native compilation. The Keil `armclang` toolchain only supports
+cross-compilation to embedded devices.

-## Warning if check kwarg of run_command is missing
-
-The `check` kwarg of `run_command` currently defaults to `false`.
-Because we want to change that, running
-```meson
-run_command('cmd')
-```
-now results in:
-```text
-WARNING: You should add the boolean check kwarg to the run_command call.
-         It currently defaults to false,
-         but it will default to true in future releases of meson.

-## Support for CMake <3.14 is now deprecated for CMake subprojects
-
-In CMake 3.14, the File API was introduced and the old CMake server API was
-deprecated (and removed in CMake 3.20). Thus support for this API will also
-be removed from Meson in future releases.
-
-This deprecation only affects CMake subprojects.

-It is now possible to request for symbolic links to be installed during

+## Removal of the RPM module
+
+Due to lack of interest, lack of maintainership, and lack of a clear purpose,
+the RPM module has been removed.
+
+Users interested in one-shot tools to generate an RPM spec file template for
+distro packaging, are encouraged develop an external tool that reads the
+introspection data.

-## `meson rewrite` can modify `extra_files`
-
-The build script rewriter can now modify targets' `extra_files` lists,
-or create them if absent. It it used in the same way as with rewriting
-source lists:
-
-```bash
-meson rewrite target <target name/id> {add_extra_files/rm_extra_files} [list of extra files]
-```
-
-The rewriter's script mode also supports these actions:
-
-```json
-{
-  "type": "target",
-  "target": "<target name>",
-  "operation": "extra_files_add / extra_files_rm",
-  "sources": ["list", "of", "extra", "files", "to", "add, remove"],
-}
-```
-
-## `meson rewrite target <target> info` outputs *target*'s `extra_files`
-
-Targets' `extra_files` lists are now included in the rewriter's target info dump
-as a list of file paths, in the same way `sources` are. This applies to both
-`meson rewrite` CLI and script mode.

-
-As Visual Studio 2022 is released recently, it's time to support the

-The usage is similar to other backends. For example

-will configure "builddir" for projects compatible with Visual Studio 2022.
