+## [0.7.0] - 2026-03-10
+
+### Breaking
+
+- Complete rework of patch-based smoothers. Since PR[#94](https://github.com/gridap/GridapSolvers.jl/pull/94/files). List of breaking changes:
+  - All the patch machinery has been removed (`PatchDecomposition`, `PatchFESpace`, `PatchTriangulation`, etc...) in favour of the new Gridap patch machinery (since Gridap v0.19).
+  - The old `PatchBasedLinearSolver` has been renamed to `PatchSolver` and now uses the new patch machinery. The constructors are similar but should be simpler and more flexible/robust. This still integrates the blocks on demand.
+  - The old `VankaSolver` has been renamed to `BlockJacobiSolver` and has been extended to distributed. It it now an alternative to `PatchSolver` where the local problems are extracted directly from the matrix instead of re-computing the local problems (and are equivalent if the patched weakform coincides with the original problem).
+  - `PatchProlongationOperator` now uses the new `PatchSolver` machinery. A new operator `BlockJacobiProlongationOperator` has been added, which is equivalent but uses the `BlockJacobiSolver` machinery.
+
+### Added
+
+- `GMGLinearSolver` now supports F- and W-cycles on top of the existing V-cycle. The iteration type can be now chosen through the `cycle_type` kwarg. Since PR[#94](https://github.com/gridap/GridapSolvers.jl/pull/94/files).
+- Non-preconditioned CG solver is now also available. Added Lanczos eigenvalue add-on for CG solvers to compute approximations of the . Since PR[#94](https://github.com/gridap/GridapSolvers.jl/pull/94/files).

+### Breaking

+- Removed the `ModelHierarchy` from the `GMGLinearSolver` constructors. This should allow more flexibility for the GMG solver (for instance, to create a P-GMG). Since PR[#92](https://github.com/gridap/GridapSolvers.jl/pull/92).
