 - Feature: enum members are now extracted as nodes with `case_of` edges in four more languages — **Rust** enum variants (#3938), **Zig** enum members (#3940), **C++** `enum`/`enum class` enumerators including nested enums (#3939), and **Scala 3** enum cases plus their methods (#3937) — all thanks @rajatnagda45.
 - Fix: Java calls to inherited methods and `super.method()` now resolve to the declaring ancestor (walking the `inherits` chain, nearest declaration wins), instead of dangling; an unknown/external or ambiguous ancestor fails closed (#3932, thanks @janwaleed09).
 - Fix: semantic extraction warns once when a file exceeds the 20,000-character cap and is truncated, instead of silently dropping the tail (#3923, #3773, thanks @AK-Lmn).
+- Feature: Solidity file-level free functions (Solidity 0.7+, declared outside any contract) and their calls are now extracted (#3906, thanks @rajatnagda45).
+- Fix: VB.NET type/module-qualified calls (`MyModule.DoThing()`, `MyClass.SharedMethod()`) resolve to the target method; value-receiver and `MyBase.` calls fail closed (#3909, thanks @rajatnagda45).
+- Fix: Astro files are parsed correctly — only the frontmatter and `<script>` blocks are fed to the AST pass (the HTML template no longer produces parse errors), with line numbers preserved (#3902, thanks @Bosken85).
+- Fix: the "surprising connections" cross-repo/directory bonus now matches the reason it prints — two files at the scan root no longer falsely score as crossing repos (#3934, thanks @neo1777).
+- Fix: under `--exclude-hubs`, a node whose only neighbours are excluded hubs is kept with its hub's community instead of being severed into a singleton; the default path is unchanged (#3933, thanks @neo1777).
+- Perf: the Neo4j/FalkorDB `--push` path creates a per-label id index before the node upsert loop, fixing the throughput collapse on large graphs (#3957, thanks @Yi-111-a).
+- Fix: community labeling keeps the labels it already named when a nested retry fails to parse, instead of discarding the whole batch (#3956, thanks @Vikram-Lex).
+- Fix: `graphify hook status` reports hooks written by an older release as out of date (run `graphify hook install` to refresh) (#3951, #3771, thanks @bercedev).
+- Fix: a Rust virtual-workspace-root `Cargo.toml` (only `[workspace]`, no `[package]`) is treated as skipped-by-design rather than warned as zero-node (#3930, #3910, thanks @Adityakk9031).
+- Fix: when the instructions file (`CLAUDE.md` etc.) is a symlink, install reports the real target it wrote to, and uninstall keeps the symlink (strips only the graphify section) instead of deleting the link (#3950, #3953, #3805, thanks @bercedev).
