 ## [Unreleased]
+* **WARNING:** this release breaks compatibility with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
 * **WARNING:** this release breaks the API of the `graph_algorithm` plugin
 * refactored module widget
   * added option to show gate content for each module

   * changed the API and made everything accessible via Python
   * graph corresponding to a netlist is now encapsulated within an `NetlistGraph` object that allows easy interaction with the graph
   * added new functions for computing neighborhoods, shortest paths, subgraphs, and (strongly) connected components
+* added `hawkeye` plugin for the detection of symmetric cryptographic implementations in gate-level netlists
+  * see publication `HAWKEYE - Recovering Symmetric Cryptography From Hardware Circuits` at CRYPTO'24 for details
+* added `NetlistTraversalDecorator` to ease exploration of a netlist
+  * added `get_next_matching_gates` to get successor/predecessor gates matching a certain condition
+  * added `get_next_matching_gates_until` to get successor/predecessor gates until a certain condition is fulfilled
+  * added `get_next_matching_gates_until_depth` to get successor/predecessor gates up to a certain depth
+  * added `get_next_sequential_gates` and `get_next_sequential_gates_map` to get the next layer of sequental successors/predecessors
+  * added `get_next_combinational_gates` to get all combinational gates until the next non-combinational gates are reached
 * module pins
   * added qualifier for `pin_changed` core events telling receiver details about the recent modification
   * added event scope and stacking classes so that `pin_changed` events can be collected and prioritized
   * added specific GUI handler for every `pin_changed` event thus replacing the reload-entire-pingroup-tree policy
   * added class `ActionPingroup` so that UNDO function works for all pin / pin group actions issued from GUI
 * miscellaneous
+  * added support for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
   * added INIT field declaration to FF-gate-types in example library
   * added drag'n drop feature allowing to move several nodes in graph view at same time
   * added functions to Python GUI API to create, modifiy and delete views

   * added extended gate library picker when importing a netlist
   * added keyboard shortcut for delete-item action from toolbar
   * added parameter `force_name` to enforce pin (group) renaming to `Module::set_pin_name`, `Module::set_pin_group_name`, `Module::create_pin`, and `Module::create_pin_group`
+  * added gate type properties `fifo` and `shift_register`
+  * added pin types `status`, `error`, `error_detection`, `done`, and `control`
+  * added optional filter to `Net::get_num_of_sources` and `Net::get_num_of_destinations`
+  * added function `unify_ff_outputs` to netlist preprocessing plugin
   * changed supported input file formats for import from hard coded list to list provided by loadable parser plugins
   * changed behavior of import netlist dialog, suggest only non-existing directory names and loop until an acceptable name was entered
   * changed appearance and behavior of import project dialog, make sure existing hal projects don't get overwritten
   * changed installation script policy to install Python packages (omit 'pip install' which would need virtual environment)
+  * deprecated many functions in `netlist_utils` as they have been moved somewhere else
 * bugfixes
   * fixed colors in Python Console when switching between color schemes
   * fixed pybind of `Module::get_gates`
