It should be backward compatible, but many hooks now receive a +single object with many fields allowing us flexibility to update the API later. + + +Packaging changes +----------------- + +Thanks to `@mkoppe `__, we are slowly getting rid of +setup.py finally migrating to ``pyproject.toml``. There is still quite a bit of +work, and please open an issue if you encounter any problem. + + +Deprecation +----------- + +A number of unused functions have been marked deprecated or pending deprecation. +Please let us know if you encounter any of those deprecation messages for us to +adjust the removal timeline. + + +Thanks +------ + +Many thanks to `@mkoppe `__ and `@krassowski +`__ for their multiple contributions and codebase +cleanup. + +As usual you can find the full list of PRs on GitHub under `the 8.22 +`__ milestone. + +Thanks to the `D.
