+## v0.11.2 (Aug 10, 2025)
+
+- Faster stack push for `Variadic<T>`
+- Fix handling Windows paths with drive letter in Luau require (#623)
+- Make Luau registered aliases ascii case-insensitive (#620)
+- Fix deserializing negative zeros `-0.0` (#618)
+
+## v0.11.1 (Jul 15, 2025)
+
+- Fixed bug exhausting Lua auxiliary stack and leaving it without reserve (#615)
+- `Lua::push_c_function` now correctly handles OOM for Lua 5.1 and Luau
+
+## v0.11.0 (Jul 14, 2025)
+
+Changes since v0.11.0-beta.3
+
+- Allow linking external Lua libraries in a build script (e.g. pluto) using `external` mlua-sys feature flag
+- `Lua::inspect_stack` takes a callback with `&Debug` argument, instead of returning `Debug` directly
+- Added `Debug::function` method to get function running at a given level
+- `Debug::curr_line` is deprecated in favour of `Debug::current_line` that returns `Option<usize>`
+- Added `Lua::set_globals` method to replace global environment
+- `Table::set_metatable` now returns `Result<()>` (this operation can fail in sandboxed Luau mode)
+- `impl ToString` replaced with `Into<StdString>`  in `UserData` registration
+- `Value::as_str` and `Value::as_string_lossy` methods are deprecated (as they are non-idiomatic)
+- Bugfixes and improvements
+
+## v0.11.0-beta.3 (Jun 23, 2025)
+
+- Luau in sandboxed mode has reduced options in `collectgarbage` function (to follow the official doc)
+- `Function::deep_clone` now returns `Result<Function>` as this operation can trigger memory errors
+- Luau "Require" resolves included Lua files relative to the current directory (#605)
+- Fixed bug when finalizing `AsyncThread` on drop (`call_async` methods family)
+
+## v0.11.0-beta.2 (Jun 12, 2025)
+
+- Lua 5.4 updated to 5.4.8
+- Terminate Rust `Future` when `AsyncThread` is dropped (without relying on Lua GC)
+- Added `loadstring` function to Luau
+- Make `AsChunk` trait dyn-friendly
+- Luau `Require` trait synced with Luau 0.674
+- Luau `Require` trait methods now can return `Error` variant (in `NavigateError` enum)
+- Added `__type` to `Error`'s userdata metatable (for `typeof` function)
+- `parking_log/send_guard` is moved to `userdata-wrappers` feature flag
+- New `serde` feature flag to replace `serialize` (the old one is still available)
+
+## v0.11.0-beta.1 (May 7th, 2025)
+
+- New "require-by-string" for Luau (with `Require` trait and async support)
+- Added `Thread::resume_error` support for Luau
+- 52 bit integers support for Luau (this is a breaking change)
+- New features for Luau compiler (constants, disabled builtins, known members)
+- `AsyncThread<A, R>` changed to `AsyncThread<R>` (`A` pushed to stack immediately)
+- Lifetime `'a` moved from `AsChunk<'a>` to `AsChunk::source where Self: 'a`
+- `Lua::scope` pass `&Scope` instead of `&mut Scope` to closure
+- Added global hooks support (Lua 5.1+)
+- Added per-thread hooks support (Lua 5.1+)
+- `Lua::init_from_ptr` renamed to `Lua::get_or_init_from_ptr` and returns `&Lua`
+- `Lua:load_from_function` is deprecated (this is `register_module` now)
+- Added `Lua::register_module` and `Lua::preload_module`
+
+## v0.10.4 (May 5th, 2025)
+
+- Luau updated to 0.672
+- New serde option `encode_empty_tables_as_array` to serialize empty tables as arrays
+- Added `WeakLua` and `Lua::weak()` to create weak references to Lua state
+- Trigger abort when Luau userdata destructors are panic (Luau GC does not support it)
+- Added `AnyUserData::type_id()` method to get the type id of the userdata
+- Added `Chunk::name()`, `Chunk::environment()` and `Chunk::mode()` functions
+- Support borrowing underlying wrapped types for `UserDataRef` and `UserDataRefMut` (under `userdata-wrappers` feature)
+- Added large (52bit) integers support for Luau
+- Enable `serde` for `bstr` if `serialize` feature flag is enabled
+- Recursive warnings (Lua 5.4) are no longer allowed
+- Implemented `IntoLua`/`FromLua` for `BorrowedString` and `BorrowedBytes`
+- Implemented `IntoLua`/`FromLua` for `char`
+- Enable `Thread::reset()` for all Lua versions (limited support for 5.1-5.3)
+- Bugfixes and improvements

+With the `serde` feature flag enabled, `mlua` allows you to serialize/deserialize any type that implements [`serde::Serialize`] and [`serde::Deserialize`] into/from [`mlua::Value`]. In addition, `mlua` provides the [`serde::Serialize`] trait implementation for `mlua::Value` (including `UserData` support).

+## mlua v0.10 release notes
+
+The v0.10 version of mlua has goal to improve the user experience while keeping the same performance and safety guarantees.
+This document highlights the most notable features. For a full list of changes, see the [CHANGELOG].
+
+[CHANGELOG]: https://github.com/mlua-rs/mlua/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md
+
+### New features
+
+#### `'static` Lua types
+
+In previous mlua versions, it was required to have a `'lua` lifetime attached to every Lua value. v0.9 introduced (experimental) owned types that are `'static` without a lifetime attached, but they kept strong references to the Lua instance.
+In v0.10 all Lua types are `'static` and have only weak reference to the Lua instance. It means they are more flexible and can be used in more places without worrying about memory leaks.
+
+#### Truly `send` feature
+
+In this version Lua is `Send + Sync` when the `send` feature flag is enabled (previously was only `Send`). It means Lua instance and their values can be safely shared between threads and used in multi threaded async contexts.
+
+```rust
+let lua = Lua::new();
+
+lua.globals().set("i", 0)?;
+let func = lua.load("i = i + ...").into_function()?;
+
+std::thread::scope(|s| {
+    s.spawn(|| {
+        for i in 0..5 {
+            func.call::<()>(i).unwrap();
+        }
+    });
+    s.spawn(|| {
+        for i in 0..5 {
+            func.call::<()>(i).unwrap();
+        }
+    });
+});
+
+assert_eq!(lua.globals().get::<i32>("i")?, 20);
+```
+
+Under the hood, to synchronize access to the Lua state, mlua uses [`ReentrantMutex`] which can be recursively locked by a single thread. Only one thread can execute Lua code at a time, but it's possible to share Lua values between threads.
+
+This has some performance penalties (about 10-20%) compared to the lock free mode. This flag is disabled by default and does not supported in module mode.
+
+[`ReentrantMutex`]: https://docs.rs/parking_lot/latest/parking_lot/type.ReentrantMutex.html
+
+#### Register Rust functions with variable number of arguments
+
+The new traits `LuaNativeFn`/`LuaNativeFnMut`/`LuaNativeAsyncFn` have been introduced to provide a way to register Rust functions with variable number of arguments in Lua, without needing to pass all arguments as a tuple.
+
+They are used by `Function::wrap`/`Function::wrap_mut`/`Function::wrap_async` methods:
+
+```rust
+let add = Function::wrap(|a: i64, b: i64| Ok(a + b));
+
+lua.globals().set("add", add).unwrap();
+
+// Prints 50
+lua.load(r#"print(add(5, 45))"#).exec().unwrap();
+```
+
+To wrap functions that return direct value (non-`Result`) you can use `Function::wrap_raw` method.
+
+#### Setting metatable for Lua builtin types
+
+For Lua builtin types (like `string`, `function`, `number`, etc.) that have a shared metatable for all instances, it's now possible to set a custom metatable for them.
+
+```rust
+let mt = lua.create_table()?;
+mt.set("__tostring", lua.create_function(|_, b: bool| Ok(if b { "2" } else { "0" }))?)?;
+lua.set_type_metatable::<bool>(Some(mt));
+lua.load("assert(tostring(true) == '2')").exec().unwrap();
+```
+
+### Improvements
+
+#### New `ObjectLike` trait
+
+The `ObjectLike` trait is a combination of the `AnyUserDataExt` and `TableExt` traits used in previous versions. It provides a unified interface for working with Lua tables and userdata.
+
+#### `Either<L, R>` enum
+
+The `Either<L, R>` enum is a simple enum that can hold either `L` or `R` value. It's useful when you need to return or receive one of two types in a function.
+This type implements `IntoLua` and `FromLua` traits and can generate a meaningful error message when conversion fails.
+
+```rust
+let func = Function::wrap(|x: Either<i32, String>| Ok(format!("received: {x}")));
+
+lua.globals().set("func", func).unwrap();
+
+// Prints: received: 123
+lua.load(r#"print(func(123))"#).exec().unwrap();
+
+// Prints: bad argument #1: error converting Lua table to Either<i32, String>
+lua.load(r#"print(pcall(func, {}))"#).exec().unwrap();
+```
+
+#### `Lua::exec_raw` helper to execute low-level Lua C API code
+
+For advanced users, it's now possible to execute low-level Lua C API code using the `Lua::exec_raw` method.
+
+```rust
+let t = lua.create_sequence_from([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])?;
+let sum: i64 = unsafe {
+    lua.exec_raw(&t, |state| {
+        // top of the stack: table `t`
+        let mut sum = 0;
+        // push nil as the first key
+        mlua::ffi::lua_pushnil(state);
+        while mlua::ffi::lua_next(state, -2) != 0 {
+            sum += mlua::ffi::lua_tointeger(state, -1);
+            // Remove the value, keep the key for the next iteration
+            mlua::ffi::lua_pop(state, 1);
+        }
+        mlua::ffi::lua_pop(state, 1);
+        mlua::ffi::lua_pushinteger(state, sum);
+        // top of the stack: sum
+    })
+}?;
+assert_eq!(sum, 15);
+```
+
+The `exec_raw` method is longjmp-safe. It's not recommended to move `Drop` types into the closure to avoid possible memory leaks.
+
+#### `anyhow` feature flag
+
+The new `anyhow` feature flag adds `IntoLua` and `Into<mlua::Error>` implementation for the `anyhow::Error` type.
+
+```rust
+let f = lua.create_function(|_, ()| {
+    Err(anyhow!("error message"))?;
+    Ok(())
+})?;
+```

+#### Scope changes
+
+The following `Scope` methods were changed:
+- Removed `Scope::create_any_userdata`
+- `Scope::create_nonstatic_userdata` is renamed to `Scope::create_userdata`
+
+Instead, scope has comprehensive support for borrowed userdata: `create_any_userdata_ref`, `create_any_userdata_ref_mut`, `create_userdata_ref`, `create_userdata_ref_mut`.
+
+`UserDataRef` and `UserDataRefMut` are no longer acceptable for scoped userdata access as they require owned underlying data.
+In mlua v0.9 this can cause read-after-free bug in some edge cases.
+
+To temporarily borrow underlying data, the `AnyUserData::borrow_scoped` and `AnyUserData::borrow_mut_scoped` methods were introduced:
+
+```rust
+let data = "hello".to_string();
+lua.scope(|scope| {
+    let ud = scope.create_any_userdata_ref(&data)?;
+
+    // We can only borrow scoped userdata using this method
+    ud.borrow_scoped::<String, ()>(|s| {
+        assert_eq!(s, "hello");
+    })?;
+
+    Ok(())
+})?;
+```
+
+Those methods work for scoped and regular userdata objects (but still require `T: 'static`).
+
+#### String changes
+
+Since `mlua::String` holds a weak reference to Lua without any guarantees about the lifetime of the underlying data, getting a `&str` or `&[u8]` from it is no longer safe.
+Lua instance can be destroyed while reference to the data is still alive:
+
+```rust
+let lua = Lua::new();
+let s: mlua::String = lua.create_string("hello, world")?; // only weak reference to Lua!
+let s_ref: &str = s.to_str()?; // this is not safe!
+drop(lua);
+println!("{s_ref}"); // use after free!
+```
+
+To solve this issue, return types of `mlua::String::to_str` and `mlua::String::as_bytes` methods changed to `BorrowedStr` and `BorrowedBytes` respectively.
+
+These new types hold a strong reference to the Lua instance and can be safely converted to `&str` or `&[u8]`:
+
+```rust
+let lua = Lua::new();
+let s: mlua::String = lua.create_string("hello, world")?;
+let s_ref: mlua::BorrowedStr = s.to_str()?; // The strong reference to Lua is held here
+drop(lua);
+println!("{s_ref}"); // ok
+```
+
+The good news is that `BorrowedStr` implements `Deref<Target = str>`/`AsRef<str>` as well as `Display`, `Debug`, `Eq`, `PartialEq` and other traits for easy usage.
+The same applies to `BorrowedBytes`.
+
+Unfortunately, `mlua::String::to_string_lossy` cannot return `Cow<'a, str>` anymore, because it requires a strong reference to Lua. It now returns Rust `String` instead.

+## mlua v0.9 release notes
+
+The v0.9 version of mlua is a major release that includes a number of API changes and improvements. This release is a stepping stone towards the v1.0.
+This document highlights the most important changes. For a full list of changes, see the [CHANGELOG].
+
+[CHANGELOG]: https://github.com/mlua-rs/mlua/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md
+
+### New features
+
+#### 1. New Any UserData API
+
+This is a long awaited feature that allows to register in Lua foreign types that cannot implement `UserData` trait because of the Rust orphan rules.
+
+Now you can register any type that implements [`Any`] trait as a userdata type.
+
+Consider the following example:
+
+```rust
+lua.register_userdata_type::<std::string::String>(|reg| {
+    reg.add_method("len", |_, this, ()| Ok(this.len()));
+
+    reg.add_method_mut("push", |_, this, s: String| {
+        this.push_str(&s);
+        Ok(())
+    });
+
+    reg.add_meta_method(MetaMethod::ToString, |lua, this, ()| lua.create_string(this));
+})?;
+
+let s = lua.create_any_userdata("hello".to_string())?;
+lua.load(chunk! {
+    print("s:len() is " .. $s:len())
+    $s:push(" world")
+    // Prints: hello, world
+    print($s)
+})
+.exec()?;
+```
+
+In this example we registered [`std::string::String`] as a userdata type with a set of methods and then created an instance of this type in Lua.
+
+It's _not_ required to register a type before using the `Lua::create_any_userdata()` method, instead an empty metatable will be created for you.
+You can also register the same type multiple times with different methods. Any previously created instances will share the old metatable, while new instances will have the new one.
+
+The new set of API is called `any_userdata` because it allows to register types that implements [`Any`] trait.
+
+[`std::string::String`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/string/struct.String.html
+[`Any`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/any/trait.Any.html
+
+#### 2. Scope support for the new any userdata types
+
+When you need to create non-static userdata instances in Lua, the usual way is use `Lua::scope()` helper to make them scoped. When out of scope, any scoped objects will be automatically
+dropped. The only downside of this approach is that every new instance will have a new metatable. This is not very fast if you need to create a lot of instances.
+
+With the new Any UserData API, you can place non-static references `&T` where `T: 'static` into a scope and they will share a single static metatable.
+
+```rust
+lua.register_userdata_type::<std::string::String>(|reg| {
+    reg.add_method_mut("replace", |_, this, (pat, to): (String, String)| {
+        *this = this.replace(&pat, &to);
+        Ok(())
+    });
+
+    reg.add_meta_method(MetaMethod::ToString, |lua, this, ()| lua.create_string(this));
+})?;
+
+let mut s = "hello, world".to_string();
+
+lua.scope(|scope| {
+    // This userdata instance holds only a mutable reference to our string
+    let ud = scope.create_any_userdata_ref_mut(&mut s)?;
+    lua.load(chunk! {
+        $ud:replace("world", "user")
+    })
+    .exec()
+})?;
+
+// Prints: hello, user!
+println!("{s}!");
+```
+
+#### 3. Owned types (`unstable`)
+
+One of the common questions was how to embed a Lua type into Rust struct to use it later. It was non-trivial to do because of the `'lua` lifetime attached to every Lua value.
+
+In v0.9 mlua introduces "owned" types `OwnedTable`/`OwnedFunction`/`OwnedString`/`OwnedAnyUserData`/ `OwnedThread`that are `'static` (no lifetime attached).
+
+```rust
+let lua = Lua::new();
+
+struct MyStruct {
+    table: OwnedTable,
+    func: OwnedFunction,
+}
+
+let my_struct = MyStruct {
+    table: lua.globals().into_owned(),
+    func: lua
+        .create_function(|_, t: Table| Ok(format!("{t:#?}")))?
+        .into_owned(),
+};
+
+// It's safe to drop Lua!
+drop(lua);
+
+let result = my_struct.func.call::<_, String>(my_struct.table)?;
+println!("{result}");
+```
+
+Prior to v0.9, it was possible to do by creating a reference to the Lua value in registry using `Lua::create_registry_value()`
+and retrieving value later using `Lua::registry_value()` method.
+
+All owned handles hold a *strong* reference to the current Lua instance.
+Be warned, if you place them into a Lua type (eg. `UserData` or a Rust callback), it is *very easy*
+to accidentally cause reference cycles that would prevent destroying Lua instance.
+
+Please note this functionality is available under the `unstable` feature flag and not available when the `send` feature is enabled.
+
+#### New ffi module
+
+In v0.9 release the internal `ffi` module has been moved into the new [`mlua-sys`] crate and became available for public use.
+This crate provides unified Lua FFI API (targeting Lua 5.4) using a (limited) compatibility layer for older versions.
+
+mlua re-exports the `ffi` module aliasing the `mlua-sys` crate and provides (unsafe) functionality to work with raw Lua state:
+
+```rust
+unsafe {
+    unsafe extern "C-unwind" fn lua_add(state: *mut mlua::lua_State) -> i32 {
+        let a = mlua::ffi::luaL_checkinteger(state, 1);
+        let b = mlua::ffi::luaL_checkinteger(state, 2);
+        mlua::ffi::lua_pushinteger(state, a + b);
+        1
+    }
+
+    let add = lua.create_c_function(lua_add)?;
+    assert_eq!(add.call::<_, i32>((2, 3))?, 5);
+}
+```
+
+[`mlua-sys`]: https://crates.io/crates/mlua-sys
+
+#### Luau JIT support
+
+mlua brings support for the new [Luau] JIT backend under the `luau-jit` feature flag.
+
+It will automatically trigger JIT compilation for new Lua chunks. To disable it, just call `lua.enable_jit(false)` before loading Lua code
+(but any previously compiled chunks will remain JIT-compiled).
+
+[Luau]: https://luau-lang.org
+
+### Improvements
+
+#### 1. Better error reporting
+
+When calling a Rust function from Lua and passing wrong arguments, previous mlua versions reported a error message without any context or reference to the particular argument.
+
+In v0.9 it reports a error message with the argument index and expected type:
+
+```rust
+let func = lua.create_function(|_, _a: i32| Ok(()))?;
+lua.load(chunk! {
+    local ok, err = pcall($func, "not a number")
+    // Prints: bad argument #1: error converting Lua string to i32 (expected number or string coercible to number)
+    print(err)
+})
+.exec()?;
+```
+
+Similar changes have been made for userdata functions and methods:
+
+```rust
+lua.register_userdata_type::<&'static str>(|reg| {
+    reg.add_method("len", |_, this, ()| Ok(this.len()));
+})?;
+
+let s = lua.create_any_userdata("hello")?;
+lua.load(chunk! {
+    local ok, err = pcall($s.len, 123)
+    // Prints: bad argument `self` to `&str.len`: error converting Lua integer to userdata
+    print(err)
+})
+.exec()?;
+```
+
+#### 2. Error context
+
+Similar to the [`anyhow`] Error type, now it's possible to attach context to Lua errors:
+
+```rust
+let read = lua.create_function(|lua, path: String| {
+    let bytes = std::fs::read(&path)
+        .into_lua_err()
+        .context(format!("Failed to open `{path}`"))?;
+    Ok(lua.create_string(bytes))
+})?;
+
+lua.load(chunk! {
+    local ok, err = pcall($read, "/nonexistent")
+    /// Prints:
+    /// Failed to open /nonexistent
+    /// No such file or directory (os error 2)
+    /// stack traceback:
+    /// ...
+    print(err)
+})
+.exec()?;
+```
+
+[`anyhow`]: https://crates.io/crates/anyhow
+
+#### 4. New methods `Function::wrap`/`AnyUserData::wrap`
+
+Sometimes it's useful to have `IntoLua` trait implementation for a Rust function or type `T: Any` without needing to call `Lua::create_function()`/`Lua::create_any_userdata()` methods.
+Since v0.9 you can call the new methods `Function::wrap()`/`AnyUserData::wrap()` that allows to do this. They return an abstract type that `impl IntoLua`:
+
+```rust
+lua.globals().set("print_rust", Function::wrap(|_, s: String| Ok(println!("{}", s))))?;
+lua.globals().set("rust_ud", AnyUserData::wrap("hello"))?;
+```
+
+In addition there are also `Function::wrap_mut()`/`Function::wrap_async()` methods that allow to wrap mutable and async functions respectively.
+
+For a `T: 'UserData + 'static` the `IntoLua` trait is still always implemented.
+
+#### `UserDataRef` and `UserDataRefMut` type wrappers
+
+The new wrappers `UserDataRef` and `UserDataRefMut` are receivers for userdata type `T` and borrow underlying instance for the lifetime of the wrapper.
+
+```rust
+lua.globals()
+    .set("ud", AnyUserData::wrap("hello".to_string()))?;
+
+let mut ud_mut: UserDataRefMut<String> = lua.globals().get("ud")?;
+ud_mut.push_str(", Rust");
+drop(ud_mut);
+
+let ud_ref: UserDataRef<String> = lua.globals().get("ud")?;
+// Prints: hello, Rust
+println!("{}", *ud_ref);
+```
+
+In the previous mlua versions the same functionality can be achieved by receiving `AnyUserData` and calling `AnyUserData::borrow()`/`AnyUserData::borrow_mut()` methods.
+
+The new wrappers are identical to Rust [`Ref`]/[`RefMut`] types.
+
+[`Ref`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/cell/struct.Ref.html
+[`RefMut`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/cell/struct.RefMut.html
+
+#### New `AnyUserDataExt` trait
+
+Similar to the `TableExt` trait, the `AnyUserDataExt` provides a set of extra methods for the `AnyUserData` type.
+
+1) `AnyUserDataExt::get()/set()` to get/set a value by key from the userdata, assuming it has `__index` metamethod.
+
+2) `AnyUserDataExt::call()` to call the userdata as a function assuming it has `__call` metamethod.
+
+3) `AnyUserData::call_method(name, ...)` to call the userdata method, assuming it has `__index` metamethod and the associated function.
+
+#### Pretty formatting Lua values
+
+`mlua::Value` implements a new format `:#?` that allows to (recursively) pretty print Lua values:
+
+```rust
+println!("{:#?}", lua.globals());
+```
+
+Prints:
+```
+{
+  ["_G"] = table: 0x7fa2d0706260,
+  ["_VERSION"] = "Lua 5.4",
+  ["assert"] = function: 0x10451d11d,
+  ["collectgarbage"] = function: 0x10451d198,
+  ["coroutine"] = {
+    ["close"] = function: 0x10451e28f,
+    ...
+  },
+  ["dofile"] = function: 0x10451d37c,
+  ...
+}
+```
+
+In addition a new method `Value::to_string()` has been added to convert `Value` to a string (using `__tostring` metamethod if available).
+
+#### Environment for Lua functions
+
+Any Lua functions have an associated environment table that is used to resolve global variables. By default it sets to a Lua globals table.
+
+In the new release it's possible to get or update a function environment using `Function::environment()` or `Function::set_environment()` methods respectively.
+
+```rust
+let f = lua.load("return a").into_function()?;
+
+assert_eq!(f.environment(), Some(lua.globals()));
+
+lua.globals().set("a", 1)?;
+assert_eq!(f.call::<_, i32>(())?, 1);
+
+f.set_environment(lua.create_table_from([("a", "hello")])?)?;
+assert_eq!(f.call::<_, mlua::String>(())?, "hello");
+```
+
+#### Performance optimizations
+
+The new mlua version has a number of performance improvements. Please check the [benchmarks results] to see how mlua compares to rlua and rhai.
+
+[benchmarks results]: https://github.com/mlua-rs/script-bench-rs
+
+### Changes in `module` mode
+
+#### New attributes
+
+The `lua_module` macro now support the following attributes:
+
+- `name=...` - sets name of the module (defaults to the name of the function).
+
+Eg.:
+
+```rust
+#[mlua::lua_module(name = "alt_module")]
+fn my_module(lua: &Lua) -> LuaResult<LuaTable> {
+    lua.create_table()
+}
+```
+
+Under the hood a new function `luaopen_alt_module` will be created for the Lua module loader.
+
+- `skip_memory_check` - skip memory allocation checks for some operations.
+
+In module mode, mlua runs in unknown environment and cannot say are there any memory limits or not. As result, some operations that require memory allocation runs in
+protected mode. Setting this attribute will improve performance of such operations with risk of having uncaught exceptions and memory leaks.
+
+#### Improved Windows target
+
+In previous mlua versions, building a Lua module for Windows requires having Lua development libraries installed on the system.
+In contrast, on Linux and macOS, modules can be built without any external dependencies using the `-undefined=dynamic_lookup` linker flag.
+
+With Rust 1.71+ it's now possible to lift this restriction for Windows as well. You can build modules normally and they will be linked with
+`lua54.dll`/`lua53.dll`/`lua52.dll`/`lua51.dll` depending on the enabled Lua version.
+
+You still need to have the dll although, linked to application where the module will be loaded.
+
+### Breaking changes
+
+1) `ToLua`/`ToLuaMulti` traits have been renamed to `IntoLua`/`IntoLuaMulti` respectively (with the methods called `into_lua`/`into_lua_multi`).
+
+The main reason for this change is following the Rust self [convention](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#/wrong_self_convention).
+
+2) Removed `FromLua` implementation for `T: UserData + Clone`.
+
+During the usage of mlua, it was found that this implementation is not very useful and prevents custom `FromLua` implementations for `T: UserData`.
+It should be a developer decision to opt-in `FromLua` for their `T` if needed rather than having enabled it unconditionally.
+
+To opt-in `FromLua` for `T: Clone` you can use a simple `#[derive(FromLua)]` macro (requires `feature = "macros"`):
+
+```rust
+#[derive(Clone, Copy, mlua::FromLua)]
+struct MyUserData(i32);
+```
+
+`T` is not required to implement `UserData` because of the new relaxed restrictions on userdata types.
