July 2025: Focused on modernizing the build system and stabilizing cross-platform packaging. Key outcomes include migrating from autotools to Meson/Ninja, enforcing a GCC toolchain on all platforms, and standardizing the flex compiler usage via flex_jll. Updated DynarePreprocessor to 7.0.0 (commit 0614acebb79e75a89e6973d1f86a95310597c789). These changes improve build reliability, speed, and reproducibility across CI and developer environments.
