+# v00-99
+
+* 2024-02-06 tmadlener ([PR#554](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/554))
+  - Bring back `vector<Data>` and `vector<Component>` into the dictionaries to allow for better interoperability with RNTuple. 
+    - See [#464](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/issues/464) for some related discussion.
+
+* 2024-02-06 tmadlener ([PR#552](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/552))
+  - Introduce an `operator<` to the interface types to make it possible to use them in STL containers that require that (e.g. `std::map` and `std::set`).
+
+* 2024-02-06 tmadlener ([PR#549](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/549))
+  - Rename `{ROOT,SIO}Frame{Reader,Writer}` to `{ROOT,SIO}{Reader,Writer}` since these names are now no longer taken by the deprecated `EventStore` based ones and Frame based I/O is the default now.
+    - Keep the old names around as deprecated aliases to not break everything immediately. But **plan to remove the aliases for v1.0**.
+
+* 2024-02-02 Mateusz Jakub Fila ([PR#550](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/550))
+  - Fixed typos in tests and interface template
+
+* 2024-01-30 tmadlener ([PR#548](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/548))
+  - Remove an unnecessary usage of the `TClass` machinery inside the `RNTupleReader` as all the necessary information is also available from metadata that we carry around in any case.
+
+* 2024-01-30 Graeme A Stewart ([PR#544](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/544))
+  Add CMake targets for running  black and flake8 on Python source files
+
+* 2024-01-30 tmadlener ([PR#528](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/528))
+  - Use `black` to format all python source files
+  - Add a pre-commit hook for running black in CI
+
+* 2024-01-25 jmcarcell ([PR#541](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/541))
+  - Add tool to transform between TTrees and RNTuples
+
+* 2024-01-24 jmcarcell ([PR#543](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/543))

+
+* 2024-01-22 tmadlener ([PR#516](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/516))
+  - Add a new category of types that can be generated by podio: `interfaces`. These can be used to provide a type that can be initialized from several other datatypes and offers some common functionality. These interface types can be used in `OneToOneRelation`s and in `OneToManyRelation`s.
+    - `interfaces` need to provide a list of types which they interface. Other types cannot be used with them.
+
+* 2024-01-18 Mateusz Jakub Fila ([PR#542](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/542))

+
+* 2024-01-16 jmcarcell ([PR#539](https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/539))

+
