 - `nixos-option` has been rewritten to a Nix expression called by a simple bash script. This lowers our maintenance threshold, makes eval errors less verbose, adds support for flake-based configurations, descending into `attrsOf` and `listOf` submodule options, and `--show-trace`.
 
+- The `intel` video driver for X.org (from the xf86-video-intel package) which was previously removed because it was non-functional has been fixed and the driver has been re-introduced.

 - The Mattermost module ({option}`services.mattermost`) and packages (`mattermost` and `mmctl`) have been substantially updated:
   - {option}`services.mattermost.preferNixConfig` now defaults to true if you advance {option}`system.stateVersion` to 25.05. This means that if you have {option}`services.mattermost.mutableConfig` set, NixOS will override your settings to those that you define in the module. It is recommended to leave this at the default, even if you used a mutable config before, because it will ensure that your Mattermost data directories are correct. If you moved your data directories, you may want to review the module changes before upgrading.
   - Mattermost telemetry reporting is now disabled by default, though security update notifications are enabled. Look at {option}`services.mattermost.telemetry` for options to control this behavior.
