+    *** Release 10.0.0 ***
+
+    Noteworthy changes compared to the previous release, 9.6.7:
+
+    Breaking changes:
+        - GPT embedding is no longer supported as a deployment method for
+          GPT-with-BIOS configurations. The rationale for this being that it is
+          far too fragile, especially with regards to growing or shrinking disk
+          images, and it may cause certain machines to refuse to boot such
+          setups as they are technically in violation of the GPT specification.
+        - The default baud rate for serial I/O on BIOS systems is now 115200,
+          instead of 9600.
+        - BIOS (chainloading) boot menu entries are now hidden when booting in
+          UEFI mode, and EFI (chainloading) entries are hidden when booting in
+          BIOS mode.
+        - For the Limine boot protocol, for relocatable executables, KASLR now
+          defaults to being disabled. The rationale for this being that KASLR
+          is a somewhat niche and fairly bypassable security technique, which
+          can cause headaches for kernels not wanting to support it, and make
+          troubleshooting harder.
+        - For the Limine boot protocol, for PE format kernels, do not discard
+          discardable sections, as code put to a discardable section like INIT
+          might be intended to only be discarded after early kernel init, not
+          before the kernel is even loaded.
