+Changes in 8.11.0
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+**Kernel**
+
+- **Changed:** the native compilation (:tacn:`native_compute`) now
+ creates a directory to contain temporary files instead of putting
+ them in the root of the system temporary directory (`#11081
+ <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11081>`_, by Gaëtan Gilbert).
+- **Fixed:** `#11360 <https://github.com/issues/11360>`_.
+ Broken section closing when a template polymorphic inductive type depends on
+ a section variable through its parameters (`#11361
+ <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11361>`_, by Gaëtan Gilbert).
+- **Fixed:** The type of :g:`Set+1` would be computed to be itself,
+ leading to a proof of False (`#11422
+ <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11422>`_, by Gaëtan Gilbert).
+
+**Specification language, type inference**
+
+- **Changed:** Heuristics for universe minimization to :g:`Set`: only
+ minimize flexible universes (`#10657 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/10657>`_,
+ by Gaëtan Gilbert with help from Maxime Dénès and Matthieu Sozeau).
+- **Fixed:**
+ A dependency was missing when looking for default clauses in the
+ algorithm for printing pattern matching clauses (`#11233
+ <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11233>`_, by Hugo Herbelin, fixing
+ `#11231 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11231>`_, reported by Barry
+ Jay).
+
+**Notations**
+
+- **Fixed:**
+ :cmd:`Print Visibility` was failing in the presence of only-printing notations
+ (`#11276 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11276>`_,
+ by Hugo Herbelin, fixing `#10750 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/10750>`_).
+- **Fixed:**
+ Recursive notations with custom entries were incorrectly parsing `constr`
+ instead of custom grammars (`#11311 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11311>`_
+ by Maxime Dénès, fixes `#9532 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/9532>`_,
+ `#9490 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/9490>`_).
+
+**Tactics**
+
+- **Changed:**
+ The tactics :tacn:`eapply`, :tacn:`refine` and variants no
+ longer allow shelved goals to be solved by typeclass resolution
+ (`#10762 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/10762>`_, by Matthieu Sozeau).
+- **Fixed:** The optional string argument to :tacn:`time` is now
+ properly quoted under :cmd:`Print Ltac` (`#11203
+ <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11203>`_, fixes `#10971
+ <https://github.com/coq/coq/issues/10971>`_, by Jason Gross)
+- **Fixed:**
+ Efficiency regression introduced by PR `#9725 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/9725>`_
+ (`#11263 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11263>`_,
+ fixes `#11063 <https://github.com/coq/coq/issues/11063>`_,
+ and `#11242 <https://github.com/coq/coq/issues/11242>`_,
+ and `#11270 <https://github.com/coq/coq/issues/11270>`_, by Frédéric Besson).
+- **Deprecated:**
+ The undocumented ``omega with`` tactic variant has been deprecated.
+ Using :tacn:`lia` is the recommended replacement, tho the old semantics
+ of ``omega with *`` can be recovered with ``zify; omega``
+ (`#11337 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11337>`_,
+ by Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias).
+- **Fixed**
+ For compatibility reasons, in 8.11, :tacn:`zify` does not support :g:`Z.pow_pos` by default.
+ It can be enabled by loading explicitly the module :g:`ZifyPow`.
+ (`#11430 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11430>`_ by Frédéric Besson
+ fixes `#11191 <https://github.com/coq/coq/issues/11191>`_).
+
+**Tactic language**
+
+- **Fixed:**
+ Syntax of tactic `cofix ... with ...` was broken from Coq 8.10
+ (`#11241 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11241>`_,
+ by Hugo Herbelin).
+
+**Commands and options**
+
+- **Deprecated:** The `-load-ml-source` and `-load-ml-object` command
+ line options have been deprecated; their use was very limited, you
+ can achieve the same by adding object files in the linking step or
+ by using a plugin (`#11428
+ <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11428>`_, by Emilio Jesus Gallego
+ Arias).
+
+**Tools**
+
+- **Fixed:**
+ ``coqtop --version`` was broken when called in the middle of an installation process
+ (`#11255 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11255>`_, by Hugo Herbelin, fixing
+ `#11254 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11254>`_).
+- **Deprecated:** The ``-quick`` command is renamed to ``-vio``, for
+ consistency with the new ``-vos`` and ``-vok`` flags. Usage of
+ ``-quick`` is now deprecated (`#11280
+ <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11280>`_, by Arthur Charguéraud).
+- **Fixed:**
+ ``coq_makefile`` does not break when using the ``CAMLPKGS`` variable
+ together with an unpacked (``mllib``) plugin. (`#11357
+ <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11357>`_, by Gaëtan Gilbert).
+- **Fixed:**
+ ``coqdoc`` with option ``-g`` (Gallina only) now correctly prints
+ commands with attributes (`#11394 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11394>`_,
+ fixes `#11353 <https://github.com/coq/coq/issues/11353>`_,
+ by Karl Palmskog).
+
+**CoqIDE**
+
+- **Changed:** CoqIDE now uses the GtkSourceView native implementation
+ of the autocomplete mechanism (`#11400
+ <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11400>`_, by Pierre-Marie Pédrot).
+
+**Standard library**
+
+- **Removed:** Export of module :g:`RList` in :g:`Ranalysis` and
+ :g:`Ranalysis_reg`. Module :g:`RList` is still there but must be
+ imported explicitly where required (`#11396
+ <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11396>`_, by Michael Soegtrop).
+
+**Infrastructure and dependencies**
+
+- **Added:**
+ Build date can now be overriden by setting the `SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH`
+ environment variable
+ (`#11227 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/11227>`_,
+ by Bernhard M. Wiedemann).
