Thanks for doing this. If you have time, can you make a short summary of the main features we want to deliver in `2.26.0`? If I remember correctly, there was a bunch of changes related to throwable formatting and we certainly want to change the defaults for TLS verification. Anything else? A partial migration to NIO has been started and I think we are only one PR short of delivering it (I must have a local branch for that). > Since `2.25.4` PRs (IMO, unfortunately) targeted the branch `2.25.x` > instead of first targeting `2.x` and then getting cherry-picked from `2.x` > to `2.25.x`, those changes don't appear on the `2.26.0` milestone.

I will land a > PR copying `src/changelog/2.25.4` contents to `src/changelog/.2.x.x`. Why would you want to duplicate the changes in `2.25.4`? They were delivered before the first 2.26.x version was released, so normally you assume they must be there. Piotr
