+  [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+  * Almost every native delegation method which changes the attribute value
+    now has an explicitly documented return value. In general, this return
+    value matches what Perl would return for the same operation. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+  * Lots of work on native delegation documentation, including documenting
+    what arguments each native delegation method allows or requires. (Dave
+    Rolsky)
+
+  [BUG FIXES]
+
+  * A number of native trait methods which expected strings as arguments did
+    not allow the empty string. This included Array->join, String->match,
+    String->replace, and String->substr. Reported by Whitney Jackson. RT
+    #61962. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+  * 'no Moose' no longer inadvertently removes imports it didn't create
+    itself. RT #60013. (Florian Ragwitz, doy)
+
+  * Roles now support passing an array reference of method names to method
+    modifier sugar functions. (doy)
+
+  * Native traits no longer use optimized inlining routines if the instance
+    requests it (in particular, if inline_get_slot_value doesn't return
+    something that can be assigned to). This should fix issues with
+    KiokuDB::Class. (doy)

   [API CHANGES]
 
   * Major changes to Native Traits, most of which make them act more like
     "normal" attributes. This should be mostly compatible with existing code,
     but see Moose::Manual::Delta for details.
 
+  * A few native traits (String, Counter, Bool) provide default values of "is"
+    and "default" when you created an attribute. Allowing them to provide
+    these values is now deprecated. Supply the value yourself when creating
+    the attribute.
+
+  * New option 'trait_aliases' for Moose::Exporter, which will allow you to
+    generate non-global aliases for your traits (and allow your users to
+    rename the aliases, etc). (doy)
+
+  * 'use Moose' and 'use Moose::Role' now accept a '-meta_name' option, to
+    determine which name to install the 'meta' name under. Passing 'undef'
+    to this option will suppress generation of the meta method entirely. (doy)
+
+  * Moose now warns if it overwrites an existing method named "meta" in your
+    class when you "use Moose". (doy)
+
   [ENHANCEMENTS]
 
   * Native Trait delegations are now all generated as inline code. This should
     be much faster than the previous method of delegation. In the best case,
     native trait methods will be very highly optimized.
 
+  * Reinitializing a metaclass no longer removes the existing method and
+    attribute objects (it instead fixes them so they are correct for the
+    reinitialized metaclass). This should make the order of loading many
+    MooseX modules less of an issue. (doy)
+
+  * The Moose::Manual docs have been revised and updated. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+  [BUG FIXES]
+
+  * If an attribute was weak, setting it to a non-ref value after the object
+    was constructed caused an error. Now we only call weaken when the new
+    value is a reference.
+
+  * t/040_type_constraints/036_match_type_operator.t failed on 5.13.5+. Fixed
+    based on a patch from Andreas Koenig.
