Silly.

Silencing some maybe-uninitialized warning under GCC (warning appears in the standard library).
Making the Python amalgamation script a bit more Windows friendly.

 **Describe the bug**
-A clear and concise description of what the bug is. A bug is a failure to build with normal compiler settings or a misbehaviour: when running the code, you get a result that differs from the expected result from our documentation.
+A clear and concise description of what the bug is.
 
-A compiler or static-analyzer warning is not a bug. It is possible with tools such as Visual Studio to require that rarely enabled warnings are considered errors. Do not report such cases as bugs. We do accept pull requests if you want to silence warnings issued by code analyzers, however.
+A compiler or static-analyzer warning is not a bug.
 
 We are committed to providing good documentation. We accept the lack of documentation or a misleading documentation as a bug (a 'documentation bug').
 
-An unexpected poor software performance can be accepted as a bug (a 'performance bug').
-
 We accept the identification of an issue by a sanitizer or some checker tool (e.g., valgrind) as a bug, but you must first ensure that it is not a false positive.
 
-We recommend that you run your tests using different optimization levels. In particular, we recommend your run tests with the simdjson library and you code compiled in debug mode. The simdjson then sets the SIMDJSON_DEVELOPMENT_CHECKS macro to 1, and this triggers additional checks on your code and on the internals of the library. If possible, we recommend that you run tests with sanitizers (e.g., see [No more leaks with sanitize flags in gcc and clang](https://lemire.me/blog/2016/04/20/no-more-leaks-with-sanitize-flags-in-gcc-and-clang/)).  You can compile the library with sanitizers for debugging purposes (e.g., set SIMDJSON_SANITIZE to ON using CMake), but you should also turn on sanitizers on your own code. You may also use tools like valgrind or the commercial equivalent.
-
-Mixing debug and release simdjson code is unsafe: you either build all your code using simdjson in
-release mode or all of it in debug mode.
+We recommend that you run your tests using different optimization levels.
 
 Before reporting a bug, please ensure that you have read our documentation.
 
 **To Reproduce**
-Steps to reproduce the behaviour: provide a code sample if possible. Please provide a complete test with data. Remember that a bug is either a failure to build or an unexpected result when running the code.
+Steps to reproduce the behaviour: provide a code sample if possible.
 
 If we cannot reproduce the issue, then we cannot address it. Note that a stack trace from your own program is not enough. A sample of your source code is insufficient: please provide a complete test for us to reproduce the issue. Please reduce the issue: use as small and as simple an example of the bug as possible.
 
 It should be possible to trigger the bug by using solely simdjson with our default build setup. If you can only observe the bug within some specific context, with some other software, please reduce the issue first.

-# AI Usage Policy
-
-Contributors can use whatever tools they would like to
-craft their contributions, but there must be a **human in the loop**.
-**Contributors must read and review all LLM-generated code or text before they
-ask other project members to review it.** The contributor is always the author
-and is fully accountable for their contributions. Contributors should be
-sufficiently confident that the contribution is high enough quality that asking
-for a review is a good use of scarce maintainer time, and they should be **able
-to answer questions about their work** during review.
-
-We expect that new contributors will be less confident in their contributions,
-and our guidance to them is to **start with small contributions** that they can
-fully understand to build confidence. We aspire to be a welcoming community
-that helps new contributors grow their expertise, but learning involves taking
-small steps, getting feedback, and iterating. Passing maintainer feedback to an
-LLM doesn't help anyone grow, and does not sustain our community.
-
-This policy includes, but is not limited to, the following kinds of
-contributions:
-
-- Code, usually in the form of a pull request
-- Issues or security vulnerabilities
-- Comments and feedback on pull requests
-
-## Extractive Contributions
-
-The reason for our "human-in-the-loop" contribution policy is that processing
-patches, PRs, RFCs, and comments is not free -- it takes a lot of
-maintainer time and energy to review those contributions! Sending the
-unreviewed output of an LLM to open source project maintainers *extracts* work
-from them in the form of design and code review, so we call this kind of
-contribution an "extractive contribution".
-
-## Transparency
-
-For contributions involving significant AI assistance, we encourage you to disclose
-its use and explain your process. If a submission appears to rely heavily on AI
-without disclosure, we may doubt that the **human-in-the-loop** requirement has
-been met. Please show awareness of your use of AI.
-
-## Copyright
-
-Artificial intelligence systems raise many questions around copyright that have
-yet to be answered. Our policy on AI tools is similar to our copyright policy:
-Contributors are responsible for ensuring that they have the right to
-contribute code under the terms of our license, typically meaning that either
-they, their employer, or their collaborators hold the copyright. Using AI tools
-to regenerate copyrighted material does not remove the copyright, and
-contributors are responsible for ensuring that such material does not appear in
-their contributions. Contributions found to violate this policy will be removed
-just like any other offending contribution.

-------------------------------
-
-For non-Windows system,
-
-```bash
-cmake -B -D SIMDJSON_DEVELOPER_MODE=ON ..
-cmake --build build
-ctest --test-dir build
-```
-
-It is similar for Visual Studio users, please see the CMake or Visual Studio documentation.
-
-By default the library is built in Release mode.
-
-
-Assertions and development checks
-------------------------------
-
-We do not use conventional `assert` in simdjson. Instead we use the macro
-`SIMDJSON_ASSUME`:
-
-```cpp
-SIMDJSON_ASSUME(something_that_is_true());
-```
-
-Sometimes, you need to do a bit more work that a simple check.
-The `SIMDJSON_DEVELOPMENT_CHECKS` macro is true only in Debug mode unless manually set.
-It is acceptable to add checks that you would not do in Release mode as long as
-they are guarded:
-
-```cpp
-#if SIMDJSON_DEVELOPMENT_CHECKS
-// do sanity checks here
-```
-
-
-Working with sanitizers
-------------------------------
-
-The simdjson library must be memory-safe. We cannot allow buffer overruns.
-During development, if you system supports it, we recommend configuring
-the project with `-D SIMDJSON_SANITIZE=ON`.

 Directory Structure and Source
 ------------------------------
 
-Before diving into the directory structure, here are key concepts used in the codebase:
-
-- **Amalgamated File**: A file that is conditionally included in the amalgamation process. These are wrapped in `#ifndef SIMDJSON_CONDITIONAL_INCLUDE` blocks and are included based on the target implementation (e.g., ARM64, x86). They include implementation-specific files (e.g., `arm64.h`) and generic files (e.g., under `generic/`). Amalgamated files have associated dependency files (`dependencies.h`) to track includes.
-
-- **Amalgamator File**: A file that orchestrates the inclusion of amalgamated files. Examples: `arm64.h`, `arm64/implementation.h`, `generic/amalgamated.h`. These are not themselves amalgamated but control conditional inclusions.
-
-- **Free Dependency File**: A top-level header that is always included unconditionally. These do not have dependency files and represent the public API (e.g., main headers).
-
-- **Implementation-Specific File**: A file tied to a specific CPU architecture or instruction set (e.g., `arm64/`, `haswell/`). These must be amalgamated.
-
-- **Generic File**: A shared file (under `generic/` or `simdjson/generic/`) that contains common code included once per implementation.
-
-- **Builtin File**: Special files under `simdjson/builtin/` that handle the builtin implementation, a fallback/default implementation used when no optimized implementation is available.
-
-- **Conditional Include Block**: A section wrapped in `#ifndef SIMDJSON_CONDITIONAL_INCLUDE` for editor-only or implementation-specific content.
-
-The script `singleheader/amalgation_helper.py` will generate an HTML report which you can use to visualize the status of each file.

-  * simdjson/arm64|fallback|haswell|icelake|ppc64|westmere.h: `simdjson::<implementation>` namespace. Common implementation-specific tools like number and string parsing, as well as minification.
-    * simdjson/arm64|fallback|haswell|icelake|ppc64|westmere/*.h: implementation-specific functions such as , etc.
-    * simdjson/generic/*.h: the bulk of the actual code, written generically and compiled for each implementation, using functions defined in the implementation's .h files.
-      * simdjson/generic/dependencies.h: dependencies on common, non-implementation-specific simdjson classes. This will be included before including amalgamated.h.

+# 0.5
+
+## Highlights
+
+Performance
+* Faster and simpler UTF-8 validation with the lookup4 algorithm https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/993
+* We improved the performance of simdjson under Visual Studio by about 25%. Users will still get better performance with clang-cl (+30%) but the gap has been reduced. https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/1031
+
+Code usability
+* In `parse_many`, when parsing streams of JSON documetns, we give to the users runtime control as to whether threads are used (via the parser.threaded attribute). https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/issues/925
+* Prefixed public macros to avoid name clashes with other libraries. https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/issues/1035
+* Better documentation regarding package managers (brew, MSYS2, conan, apt, vcpkg, FreeBSD package manager, etc.).
+* Better documentation regarding  CMake usage.
+
+Standards
+* We improved standard compliance with respect to both the JSON RFC 8259 and JSON Pointer RFC 6901. We added the at_pointer method to nodes for standard-compliant JSON Pointer queries. The legacy `at(std::string_view)` method remains but is deprecated since it is not standard-compliant as per  RFC 6901.
+* We removed computed GOTOs without sacrificing performance thus improving the C++ standard compliance (since computed GOTOs are compiler-specific extensions).
+* Better support for C++20 https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/1050
+
+# 0.4
+
+## Highlights
+
+- Test coverage has been greatly improved and we have resolved many static-analysis warnings on different systems.
+- We added a fast (8GB/s) minifier that works directly on JSON strings.
+- We added fast (10GB/s) UTF-8 validator that works directly on strings (any strings, including non-JSON).
+- The array and object elements have a constant-time size() method.
+- Performance improvements to the API (type(), get<>()).
+- The parse_many function (ndjson) has been entirely reworked. It now uses a single secondary thread instead of several new threads.
+- We have introduced a faster UTF-8 validation algorithm (lookup3) for all kernels (ARM, x64 SSE, x64 AVX).
+- C++11 support for older compilers and systems.
+- FreeBSD support (and tests).
+- We support the clang front-end compiler (clangcl) under Visual Studio.
+- It is now possible to target ARM platforms under Visual Studio.
+- The simdjson library will never abort or print to standard output/error.
+
+# 0.3
+
+## Highlights
+
+- **Multi-Document Parsing:** Read a bundle of JSON documents (ndjson) 2-4x faster than doing it
+  individually. [API docs](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/blob/master/doc/basics.md#newline-delimited-json-ndjson-and-json-lines) / [Design Details](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/blob/master/doc/parse_many.md)
+- **Simplified API:** The API has been completely revamped for ease of use, including a new JSON
+  navigation API and fluent support for error code *and* exception styles of error handling with a
+  single API. [Docs](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/blob/master/doc/basics.md#the-basics-loading-and-parsing-json-documents)
+- **Exact Float Parsing:** Now simdjson parses floats flawlessly *without* any performance loss,
+  thanks to [great work by @michaeleisel and @lemire](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/558).
+  [Blog Post](https://lemire.me/blog/2020/03/10/fast-float-parsing-in-practice/)
+- **Even Faster:** The fastest parser got faster! With a [shiny new UTF-8 validator](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson/pull/387)
+  and meticulously refactored SIMD core, simdjson 0.3 is 15% faster than before, running at 2.5 GB/s
+  (where 0.2 ran at 2.2 GB/s).
+
+## Minor Highlights
+
+- Fallback implementation: simdjson now has a non-SIMD fallback implementation, and can run even on
+  very old 64-bit machines.
+- Automatic allocation: as part of API simplification, the parser no longer has to be preallocated--
+  it will adjust automatically when it encounters larger files.
+- Runtime selection API: We've exposed simdjson's runtime CPU detection and implementation selection
+  as an API, so you can tell what implementation we detected and test with other implementations.
+- Error handling your way: Whether you use exceptions or check error codes, simdjson lets you handle
+  errors in your style. APIs that can fail return simdjson_result<T>, letting you check the error
+  code before using the result. But if you are more comfortable with exceptions, skip the error code
+  and cast straight to T, and exceptions will be thrown automatically if an error happens. Use the
+  same API either way!
+- Error chaining: We also worked to keep non-exception error-handling short and sweet. Instead of
+  having to check the error code after every single operation, now you can *chain* JSON navigation
+  calls like looking up an object field or array element, or casting to a string, so that you only
+  have to check the error code once at the very end.

-# Accessor Performance Benchmarks (C++26)
-
-These benchmarks compare the performance of runtime vs compile-time JSON accessors.
-For the comparison to be meaningful, you must build simdjson with support for
-C++26 reflexion. See the `p2996` repository in the main project directory.
-
-## Files
-
-- `accessor_benchmark.h` - Common benchmark framework and test data
-- `runtime_accessors.h` - Runtime `at_path()` benchmarks
-- `compile_time_accessors.h` - Compile-time `at_path_compiled()` benchmarks (requires C++26 reflection)
-
-## Benchmarks
-
-Each benchmark measures parsing + single field access:
-
-1. **accessor_simple** - Simple field: `.name`
-2. **accessor_nested** - Nested field: `.address.city`
-3. **accessor_deep** - Deep nested field: `.address.coordinates.lat`
-
-## Building (Linux/macOS)
-
-```bash
-cmake -B build -D SIMDJSON_STATIC_REFLECTION=ON -DSIMDJSON_DEVELOPER_MODE=ON
-cmake --build build --target=bench_ondemand
-```
-
-The `SIMDJSON_STATIC_REFLECTION` will be made unnecessary once mainstream compilers
-begin supporting C++26 sufficiently well.
-
-## Running (Linux/macOS)
-
-
-```bash
-# Run all accessor benchmarks
-./build/bench_ondemand --benchmark_filter="accessor"
-```
-
-## Results
-
-We find that compile-time accessors show performance improvements that scale with path depth:
-- Simple fields: ~1.2x faster
-- Nested fields: ~1.5x faster
-- Deep nested fields: ~1.8x faster
-
-The speedup comes from eliminating runtime path parsing and conversion overhead.
