CHANGELOG.md

## 3.8 - 2025-01-27
The focus of this release has been to facilitate benchmarking in SLEEF.
It does so by providing a benchmarking tool and a plotting tool to postprocess
the results.
AArch64 self-hosted runners have been added to CI. Following this, the Linux and
compiler version have been updated.
Fix inaccuracy issues in a few functions, failures with cpp checks and a few
bugs.
Finally, the project has been extended with a blog section and its first blog
[post](https://sleef.org/2024/10/02/new-pulse.html).

### Added

- Use Arm-hosted runners by @blapie in #581
- Add blog section and first post. by @blapie in #582

### Changed
- Update GH runners to Ubuntu 24.04 and GCC14 by @blapie in #598, #599 and #601

## 3.7 - 2024-09-17

The focus of this release has been to meet open-source community standards.  It
does so by providing Contributing Guidelines, Issues and Pull-Requests
templates. Additionally, the documentation has been reworked to improve
navigation (via search bar, side menu/panel, eased navigation on GitHub, ...)
and maintainability (reduced line count, mostly markdown sources, ...). The
website rendering is now delegated to a template customisable theme. See the
new website at [sleef.org](https://sleef.org/), and [docs/](./docs) for the
GitHub-rendered documentation. The release also provides various bug fixes on
several targets, for CPU detection and in the benchmark infrastructure.
