**cpuminer-opt-23.14 is released**
**cpuminer-opt-23.15 is released**
Highlights of this release: Groestl AES is working and enabled for x16*, minotaurx, hmq1725, allium and others.
ARM support is now feature complete, on par with SSE4.2 & AES_NI.
Development environment:
* Orange Pi 5 Plus 16 GB, Rockchip 8 core CPU with AES & SHA2

* Verthash algo is not working.
* MacOS is not working natively, workaround with linux VM.
* CPU and feature detection and reporting is incomplete.
* Fugue: multiple issues not AES related, using unoptimized.
* Some algorithms too difficult to test with a CPU are not optimized for NEON.
Short term plan:
* Figure out what's going on with verthash.
* Fugue AES.
* Migrate NEON to more algos.
Medium term:
* Detection of ARM CPU model and architecture minor version.
* Find NEON optimization opportunities that exploit it's architecture and instruction set.
* Apply lessons learned to x86_64.
* SHA512, x86_64 & AArch64.
Long term:
* SHA512, x86_64 & AArch64.
* ARM SVE
* x86_64 AVX10
* RISC-V
