Dear HPX users,

The STE||AR Group is proud to announce the release of HPX 1.7.0!

This release continues the focus on C++20 conformance in our parallel 
algorithms, with many new algorithms becoming customization points and others 
receiving ranges versions. We've also added experimental support for GCC's SIMD 
implementation to go alongside the already existing Vc support. Vc support is 
deprecated and will be removed when more standard libraries support the new 
SIMD facilities. Finally, we've implemented a large subset of sender/receiver 
functionality based on current proposals (mainly P0443, P1897, and P2300). HPX 
futures fulfill the sender concept, and senders can explicitly be turned into 
futures, which means that codebases can gradually adopt senders where 
appropriate. The full list of improvements, fixes, and breaking changes can be 
found in the release 
notes<https://hpx-docs.stellar-group.org/tags/1.7.0/html/releases/whats_new_1_7_0.html>.
 Most notably, standalone Asio has been added as a new dependency, which may 
require changes to your builds or CI.

Thank you to everyone in the STE||AR Group and all the volunteers who have 
provided fixes, opened issues, and improved the documentation. In particular, 
thank you to our Google Summer of Code students Akhil Nair and Srinivas Yadav 
for their work on parallel algorithms and SIMD support for this release.
