Also IMO we don't need so much detail on what the patched vulnerabilities are; this table is to highlight major changes, bugfix details. If the vulnerabilities were significant enough to get independent WP:RS coverage we should include them, but I don't think that's the case. undo Tag: Visual edit

I added mention of Tree-sitter support, and removed ahead-of-time native compilation. IMO this change is not as important - the release notes indicate that this feature was already supported, but not as easily. To be clear - just-in-time native compilation support was added in 28.1, this change simply makes it easier to request ahead-of-time compilation. undo Tag: Visual edit
