+\begin{frame}[fragile]{Breaking Changes}
+ \begin{itemize}
+   \item Kokkos now detects and reports an error if an execution space is outside its valid lifetime scope, i.e., before \texttt{initialize()} or after \texttt{finalize()}.
+     \begin{itemize}
+      \item An example has been added to show users how to migrate from static execution spaces to comply with the new lifetime scope enforcement.
+     \end{itemize}
+   \item \texttt{Kokkos::TeamPolicy} now validates the \texttt{vector\_length} argument at construction time and aborts with a descriptive error if it is out of range, making misconfiguration bugs easier to catch.
+     \begin{itemize}
+       \item \texttt{Kokkos::TeamPolicy} now requires \texttt{vector\_length} to be a power of two.
+     \end{itemize}
+   \item \texttt{ScatterView} is no longer move constructible or move assignable.
+ \end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+
+\begin{frame}[fragile]{Breaking Changes on OpenMP and OpenMPTarget}
+ \begin{itemize}
+   \item Kokkos now warns when an OpenMP execution space instance is created inside an active OpenMP parallel region.

+  The atomics for integers were not restricted on the sizes for which they are \texttt{lock-free} (except with \texttt{MSVC}).
+ \begin{itemize}
+   \item If you used 128bit atomics on integers the linker needed to link \texttt{latomic}.
+   \item \textbf{Problem}: Linking \texttt{latomic} by anyone outside of Kokkos' own build system results in \textbf{unsafe} atomic operations.
+   \item Kokkos' atomics on integers with 128 bit or more use our internal lock-tables. Linking \texttt{libatomic} is \textbf{neither} necessary \textbf{nor} recommended.

+  \begin{itemize}
+    \item Allows us to get the \texttt{ROCm} version independently of the compiler version.

+%==========================================================================
+
+\begin{frame}[fragile]{Array Update}
+
+  Relaxed constraints on \texttt{Kokkos::Array} subscript operator
+
+  \vspace{1em}
+
+  \begin{itemize}
+    \item Previously, the indexer type was constrained so that the following holds:
+    \begin{code}
+      std::is_integral_v<IndexType> || std::is_enum_v<IndexType>
+    \end{code}

+  \end{itemize}

+    \item Fix performance discrepancies between iterate Left and Right
