+This is a minor version release where we have aimed to tidy up the code and extend functionality:
 
-✅ Bumped to numexpr 2.13.1 to incorporate new maximum/minimum NaN handling and "+"/"*" for booleans
-which matches NumPy behaviour.
-✅ Refactoring in order to ensure Blosc2 functions with NumPy 1.26.
-✅ Streamlined documentation by introducing Array Protocol
+✅ Improved documentation on thread management
+✅ Enabled direct ingestion of Zarr arrays, and added examples for xarray ingestion
+✅ Extended string-based lazy expression computation to support expressions like "matmul(a, b) + c"
+✅ Streamlined inheritance from ``Operand`` for all computable objects (``NDArray``, ``LazyExpr``, ``LazyArray`` etc.).
 
 You can think of Python-Blosc2 3.x as an extension of NumPy/numexpr that:

+* Enabled direct ingestion of Zarr arrays, and added examples for xarray ingestion
+* Extended string-based lazy expression computation using a shape parser and modified lazy expression machinery so that expressions like "matmul(a, b) + c" can now be handled (PR #496).
+* Streamlined inheritance from ``Operand`` to ensure access to basic methods like ``__add__`` for all computable objects (``NDArray``, ``LazyExpr``, ``LazyArray`` etc.) (PR ##500).
