+---
+
+This release focused on tranisitioning the codebase to Scala 2.13. In addition
+to this rather significant change, there were several relatively small bug
+fixes and process improvements that are included with this release.
+
+
+### Transition the entire codebase to Scala 2.13
+
+  This change took a lot of time and touched nearly half of all our Scala
+  files. In addition to making the eventual transition to Scala 3 easier, Scala
+  2.13 has shown some small but consistent performance improvements compared to
+  Daffodil 3.10.0 running Scala 2.12.
+
+  - For those using the Daffodil API from Scala, you will need to upgrade your
+    application to Scala 2.13.
+  - For those using the Daffodil API from Java, the transition should be
+    seamless
+
+* {% jira 2152 %} Add support for Scala 2.13
+* {% jira 2987 %} Drop Scala 2.12
+
+### Miscellaneous Bugs/Improvements
+
+* {% jira 2991 %} Debugger short names are broken
+* {% jira 2989 %} Plugins failing to initialize does not provide enough information in some cases
+* {% jira 2984 %} Diagnostic API does not allow for getting just the message
+* {% jira 2980 %} MSI files are not reproducible
+* {% jira 2976 %} Update daffodil-schema.g8 giter to use most recent best practices
+* {% jira 2973 %} Daffodil is unable to open its own XSD files inside a linux native image produced with Quarkus
+* {% jira 2969 %} Update license copyright to 2025
+* {% jira 2943 %} "LengthKind=""prefix"" textPadKind=""padChar"" incorrectly padding around prefixed length"
+* {% jira 2942 %} Missing return after PE for Out of Range Binary Integers
+* {% jira 2716 %} giter8 schema project generator should create types file.
+* {% jira 2658 %} lengthKind 'prefixed' with textTrimKind 'padChar' padding not removed from value.
+
+### Deprecation/Compatibility
+
+* {% jira 2984 %} Diagnostic API does not allow for getting just the message
+
+  The Diagnostic.getMessage() function no longer returns the diagnostic
+  mode, schema location, or data location. It only returns the actual
+  message portion of a diagnostic. To get the previous behavior, call
+  Diagnostic.toString() instead. A new Diagnostic.getModeName() function
+  is added to return just the mode (Schema Definition Warning, Parse
+  Error, etc).
+
+* {% jira 2980 %} MSI files are not reproducible
+
+  The windows installer has switched from an MSI to an EXE. Installing the
+  new version will not uninstall the previous version. Previously
+  installed Daffodil MSIs should be uninstalled prior to installing new
+  EXEs.
+
+* {% jira 2152 %} Add support for Scala 2.13
+
+  Note that some changes in 2.13 may affect the order of prefixes with the same
+  namespace and may also cause them to appear uniformly but interchangeably.
+  Ex: `xmlns="urn:bin" xmlns:b="urn:bin" <element/>` may become
+  `xmlns:b="urn:bin" xmlns="urn:bin" <b:element/>` and vice versa.
