 #### Improvements in the language
-- Do not allow uninitialized function pointers
-- Fix compiling V programs with latest clang 16 on windows (clang 16 is stricter than clang 14) (#19095)
-ast, checker, cgen: implement enum static `from_string(name string)` (#19156)
 - Pure `array.sorted()` and `array.sorted_with_compare()` methods, that do not modify their receivers (#19251)
 - UB overflow has been removed
+- Implement `Enum.from_string(name string)` for converting strings to enum values (#19156)
 - Disallow casting string to enum, suggest using Enum.from_string() instead (#19260)

+- Do not allow uninitialized function pointers
+- Fix compiling V programs with latest clang 16 on windows (clang 16 is stricter than clang 14) (#19095)

-- log: improve the most common use case, it's no longer necessary to create a `Log` instance (#19242)
 - Allow using consts as enum values (#19193)
-- `@[attr]` syntax to replace `[attr]` (`[]` is used for too many things). Most likely to be replaced with `@attr()` in the futre.

-- parser: disallow having builtin type as type names for `enum`, `sum type` and `alias` (#19043)
