+#### 6.52.0
+
+##### PMD CLI
+
+* PMD now supports a new `--use-version` flag, which receives a language-version pair (such as `java-8` or `apex-54`).
+  This supersedes the usage of `-language` / `-l` and `-version` / `-v`, allowing for multiple versions to be set in a single run.
+  PMD 7 will completely remove support for `-language` and `-version` in favor of this new flag.
+
+* Support for `-V` is being deprecated in favor of `--verbose` in preparation for PMD 7.
+  In PMD 7, `-v` will enable verbose mode and `-V` will show the PMD version for consistency with most Unix/Linux tools.
+
+* Support for `-min` is being deprecated in favor of `--minimum-priority` for consistency with most Unix/Linux tools, where `-min` would be equivalent to `-m -i -n`.
+
+##### CPD CLI
+
+* CPD now supports using `-d` or `--dir` as an alias to `--files`, in favor of consistency with PMD.
+  PMD 7 will remove support for `--files` in favor of these new flags.
+
+##### Linux run.sh parameters
+
+* Using `run.sh cpdgui` will now warn about it being deprecated. Use `run.sh cpd-gui` instead.
+
+* The old designer (`run.sh designerold`) is completely deprecated and will be removed in PMD 7. Switch to the new JavaFX designer: `run.sh designer`.
+
+* The old visual AST viewer (`run.sh bgastviewer`) is completely deprecated and will be removed in PMD 7. Switch to the new JavaFX designer: `run.sh designer` for a visual tool, or use `run.sh ast-dump` for a text-based alternative.
+
+##### Deprecated API
+
+* The following core APIs have been marked as deprecated for removal in PMD 7:
+    - {% jdoc core::PMD %} and {% jdoc core::PMD.StatusCode %} - PMD 7 will ship with a revamped CLI split from pmd-core. To programmatically launch analysis you can use {% jdoc core::PmdAnalysis %}.
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#getAllInputPaths() %} - It is now superseded by {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#getInputPathList() %}
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#setInputPaths(List) %} - It is now superseded by {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#setInputPathList(List) %}
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#addInputPath(String) %} - It is now superseded by {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#addInputPath(Path) %}
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#getInputFilePath() %} - It is now superseded by {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#getInputFile() %}
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#getIgnoreFilePath() %} - It is now superseded by {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#getIgnoreFile() %}
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#setInputFilePath(String) %} - It is now superseded by {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#setInputFilePath(Path) %}
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#setIgnoreFilePath(String) %} - It is now superseded by {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#setIgnoreFilePath(Path) %}
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#getInputUri() %} - It is now superseded by {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#getUri() %}
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#setInputUri(String) %} - It is now superseded by {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#setInputUri(URI) %}
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#getReportFile() %} - It is now superseded by {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#getReportFilePath() %}
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#setReportFile(String) %} - It is now superseded by {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#setReportFile(Path) %}
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#isStressTest() %} and {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#setStressTest(boolean) %} - Will be removed with no replacement.
+    - {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#isBenchmark() %} and {% jdoc !!core::PMDConfiguration#setBenchmark(boolean) %} - Will be removed with no replacement, the CLI will still support it.
+    - {% jdoc core::cpd.CPD %} and {% jdoc core::cpd.CPD.StatusCode %} - PMD 7 will ship with a revamped CLI split from pmd-core. An alterative to programatically launch CPD analysis will be added in due time.
+
+* In order to reduce the dependency on Apex Jorje classes, the method {% jdoc !!visualforce::lang.vf.DataType#fromBasicType(apex.jorje.semantic.symbol.type.BasicType) %}
+  has been deprecated. The equivalent method {% jdoc visualforce::lang.vf.DataType#fromTypeName(java.lang.String) %} should be used instead.
