-**Fixed bugs:**
+## Support modern session handling in OTEAPI Core
+
+From OTEAPI Core v0.7.0, sessions are handled differently in strategies, leading to signature changes in the strategy methods.
+This development release version matches the current development release version(s) of OTEAPI Core (and OTELib).
+
+### Single entity OPTIMADE Structure Resource
+
+A single entity has been added to parse an OPTIMADE Structure resource.
+The DLite parse strategy has been updated to support this new entity.
+
+Furthermore, utility/helper functions to parse the resulting `species` and `assemblies` data are available at `oteapi_optimade.parse_species()` and `oteapi_optimade.parse_assemblies()`, respectively.
+
+### DX updates
+
+The permanent dependencies branch has been removed in favor of using Dependabot's groups feature and merging everything directly into `main`.
