 Changes made since CMake 3.23 include the following.
 
-* The ADSP compiler (SHARC and Blackfin) now supports
-  both CCES and VDSP++ installations,
-  with required configuration now done in the compiler module itself
-  rather than the Generic-ADSP platform module.
+New Features
+============
 
-* A dedicated ``ADSP`` platform has been added
-  to replace the existing ``Generic-ADSP`` implementation.
-  This features automatic detection of the latest CCES/VDSP++ install
-  and compiler selection (``cc21k`` vs. ``ccblkfn``)
-  based off of the :variable:`CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR` variable.
+Presets
+-------
 
-* The :genex:`LINK_LIBRARY` generator expression gained the ability to link
-  frameworks in various ways when targeting ``Apple`` platforms. The following
-  new features were added:
+* :manual:`cmake-presets(7)` files now support schema version ``5``.
 
-  * ``FRAMEWORK``
-  * ``NEEDED_FRAMEWORK``
-  * ``REEXPORT_FRAMEWORK``
-  * ``WEAK_FRAMEWORK``
+* :manual:`cmake-presets(7)` files now support a ``${pathListSep}`` macro,
+  which expands to ``:`` or ``;`` based on the platform.
 
-* The :genex:`LINK_LIBRARY` generator expression gained the ability to link
-  libraries in various ways when targeting ``Apple`` platforms. The following
-  new features were added:
+* :manual:`cmake-presets(7)` files gained support for specifying a
+  ``testOutputTruncation`` field in test presets, which specifies the
+  truncation mode once the maximum test output size has been reached.
 
-  * ``NEEDED_LIBRARY``

+Generators
+----------

-  to keep the current local timestamp instead of extracting file timestamps
-  from the archive.
+* The :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` now support ``SYSTEM`` headers.
+
+Command-Line
+------------
