- Feature: Add support for `CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED` in _CMakeToolchain_. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9144)
- Feature: Add ``context`` information to ``conan info`` output both to stdout and json outputs. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9137). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2142)
- Feature: Improved the new `AutotoolsToolchain`, `AutotoolsDeps` and `Autotools` build helper. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9131). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2135)
- Feature: Initial cross-build support in ``CMakeToolchain`` with definition of ``CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME``, ``CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR`` and ``CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION``, deduced from ``self.settings_build`` (only using the 2 profiles) and from new ``[conf]`` items. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9115). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2140)
- Feature: Easier access to modify or update context values in ``CMakeToolchain`` blocks. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9109). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2140)
- Feature: Provide `[conf]` command line support. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9103). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2124)

(https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9099). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2125)
- Feature: Support for `CMakeDeps` generator of a new property `"skip_deps_file"` to be declared in the `cpp_info` of a package to skip creating `xxx-config.cmake` files for it, allowing to create "system wrapper" recipes easily. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9087). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2121)
- Feature: New ``conanfile.dependencies`` model, using a dict {requirement: ConanFileInterface} to prepare for Conan 2.0. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9062). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2134)
- Feature: Allow a explicit ``requires = "pkg..recipe_revision"`` to update cache revision without ``--update``. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9058). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2143)
- Feature: New ``cmake_layout()`` layout helper to define a multi-platform CMake layout that will work for different generators (ninja, xcode, visual, unix), and is multi-config. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9057). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2141)
- Feature: The `conan_toolchain.cmake` now includes `xxx_DIR` variables for the dependencies to ease the `find_package` mechanism to locate them. The declaration of these directories is a must when cross-building in OSX where CMake ignores `CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH` and `CMAKE_MODULE_PATH` to look only at the system framework directories. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9032). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2108)
- Feature: Provide access in the recipes to the environment declared with the [new environment system](https://docs.conan.io/en/latest/reference/conanfile/tools/env.html). (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9030). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2136)
- Fix: Fix Bazel build string defines. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9139)
- Fix: Fixed behavior in the `self.folders` feature whereby the sources saved or downloaded inside the `source(self)` were saved at the `self.folders.source` folder. But `self.folders.source` is intended to describe where the sources are instead of forcing where the sources are saved. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9124). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2127)
- Fix: Properly generate qbs profile for msvc. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9122)
- Fix: Configuration general.user_home_short works with "None" value. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9118)
- Fix: Avoid ``CMakeToolchain`` to generate OSX and Apple config for non Apple builds. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9107)
- Fix: The new `MesonToolchain` now takes the declared environment variables (`CC`, `CXX`...) from build-requires and profiles to set the variables `c`, `cpp`, `c_ld`, `cpp_ld` etc, into the `conan_meson_native.ini` (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/8353). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2139)
- Fix: Added new `preprocessor_definitions` to new Meson build helper. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/8353). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2139)
- Fix: The new `MesonToolchain` now allows adjusting any variable before generating the `conan_meson_native.ini` file. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/8353). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2139)
- Bugfix: Disabled remotes shouldn't fail if not used at all (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9184)
- BugFix: ``ConanFileDependencies.build["dep"]`` was retrieving the ``host`` dependency if existing, or failing otherwise, because the default requires was hardcoded to fetch the host (build=False) dependency. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9148). Docs: [:page_with_curl:](https://github.com/conan-io/docs/pull/2134)
- Bugfix: Now, `conan profile {show, update, get, remove}` is working fine with new experimental `[conf]` section. (https://github.com/conan-io/conan/pull/9114)
