+## <a name=2025> version 2025 ##
+
+Core and API changes:
+---------------------
+
+* Add wrappers to set/get body vector for all rigid 2/3D with one array
+* Add external timer for MUMPs use
+* Add parameter to save MUMPs matrix in a file
+* Only `pathlib.Path` object instead of `os.path` in macros
+* Fix `checkInteractiveCommand` to pass a file name to write last in hdf5 format
+* Fix API of `POLYR_GetWireframe` to have 2d coordinates array instead of a stupid 1d array
+* Include Demmefi's project material library
+* Fix in joint elements in 2D
+* Clean split of mechanical and thermal integrator schemes
+
+Pre changes:
+------------
+* Remove `pre.granuloMonodisperse` useless function
+* Modification of the `pre.depositIn*` functions to:
+    * no longer modify input `radii`
+    * but return the used list of `radii` as an output
+    * the `coor` returned value is now an `[nb_point,dim]` arrray
+    * use of single clean wrapper
+    * log are deactivated by default
+    * all deposit not as reference of lower, left, rear corner in 0.
+* Modification of the deposit on lattice functions of pre to:
+    * return a `coor` array of shape `[nb_point,dim]`
+    * remove the `nbPointsInTriangularLattice2D` intermediate function
+    * remove the `sizeBoundingBoxTriangularLattice2D` intermediate function
+* In `pre.avatar.imposeDrivenDof` now:
+    * no longer useless logs
+    * possibility to attempt to draw the driven dof over a time range
+* Add `hadGroup` method to `pre.mesh` class to check `physicalEntity`
+* Regarding `material` and `model` containers:
+    * if adding and object with a name already exisitng will raise a `KeyError`
+    * except if the `override` argument of the `addModel`/`addMaterial` is set to `True`
+
+Paraview changes:
+-----------------
+* Paraview macro now tries to apply on the active source
+* `chipy.OpenDisplayFiles` now also create a csv file to describe parameter mapping used in display files
+* New paraview macro to map `Shape`, `inter` and `status` field to strings
+* Fix 'mecafe' block of paraview files to always have 0 on the Z component of velocity in 2D
+* Fix 'rigid' block of paraview files to always have 0 on the Z component of reac in 2D
+* Fix `writeThisToVtk` to keep working as is
+
+Cmake changes:
+--------------
+* `WITH_HDF5` compil flag is now `True` by default
+* CMake now update the installation path if the `VENV_PATH` variable changes
+* Fix compil with numpy \>=2.0 installed in a virtualenv
+
+Examples changes:
+-----------------
+
+* Fix examples to use `reverse=True` instead of error inducing `'yes'`...
+* Remove useless `ref_radius` leftover in examples and tests
+* Fix examples to use `mecafe` and `ptc` when adding field to paraview files
+* Add missing link to basic visualization notebook for deformable in `Readme.ipynb`
+* Add a tutorial notebook to introduce `restart` and `last` concepts
