 =========
 
+0.8.0
+-----
+
+**Date:** 2024-12-18
+
+Key highlights for this release are a new atomic physics model FLYonPIC 2.0, the shadowgraphy plugin as advanced synthetic diagnostic of laser plasma interactions, 
+a new laser profile FromOpenPMDPulse allowing to load electric fields in transverse space and time domain into the simulation via incidentField,
+enhanced OpenPMD functionality, and support for the RISC-V ecosystem.
