+
+The PostGIS development team is pleased to provide `postgis_tiger_geocoder` extension.
+This is the very first release since the break from the PostGIS core.
+This version requires PostgreSQL 16 and above and should work with any supported PostGIS version.
+
+PostGIS 3.6 series is the last series to include `postgis_tiger_geocoder`.
+PostGIS 3.7 will be shipped without `postgis_tiger_geocoder`.
+
+Moving forward `postgis_tiger_geocoder` has its own dedicated repo at [OSGeo Gitea postgis_tiger_geocoder](https://gitea.osgeo.org/postgis/postgis_tiger_geocoder)
+under the PostGIS org.
+
+The versioning model has also changed to be versioned based on the year of the [Census US Tiger dataset](https://www.census.gov/geographies/mapping-files/time-series/geo/tiger-line-file.html) that is current at time of it's release.

+ repository during the PostGIS 3.7 cycle (Paul Ramsey, Regina Obe)
+- quote_ident tiger loader schema and table names (Paul Ramsey)
+- No longer set search path of database to include tiger.
+ Users are expected to do this themselves.
+- Refer to [README](https://gitea.osgeo.org/postgis/postgis_tiger_geocoder#readme) for guidance (Regina Obe)
+
+## Security
+
+- [GT-26](https://gitea.osgeo.org/postgis/postgis_tiger_geocoder/pulls/26), quote_ident tiger loader schema and table names (Paul Ramsey)
+- [GT-3](https://gitea.osgeo.org/postgis/postgis_tiger_geocoder/pulls/3), Prefix operators with system name space (Paul Ramsey)
+
+## Enhancements
+
+- [TR-6013](https://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/ticket/6013), update the geocoder to load TIGER 2025 data (Regina Obe)

+## Bug Fixes
+
+- [GT-2](https://gitea.osgeo.org/postgis/postgis_tiger_geocoder/issues/2), strip trailing country
+ names before built-in `normalize_address()` parsing
+- [GT-10](https://gitea.osgeo.org/postgis/postgis_tiger_geocoder/issues/10), support `SH` and compact
+ `SH121` input for state-highway geocoding
+- [GT-13](https://gitea.osgeo.org/postgis/postgis_tiger_geocoder/issues/13), generate SP-GiST indexes
+ for `missing_indexes_generate_script()` LIKE-search helpers
+- [GT-20](https://gitea.osgeo.org/postgis/postgis_tiger_geocoder/issues/20), escape user-provided address fragments before
+ interpolating them into `normalize_address()` regular expressions
+- [GT-24](https://gitea.osgeo.org/postgis/postgis_tiger_geocoder/pulls/24), create `tiger_data` schema from shell tiger loader scripts
+ (Darafei Praliaskouski)
+- [TR-1599](https://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/ticket/1599), [73892dce](https://gitea.osgeo.org/postgis/postgis_tiger_geocoder/commit/73892dce), improve country-aware address normalization in `normalize_address()`
+ and related wrapper paths (Darafei Praliaskouski)
+- [TR-2459](https://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/ticket/2459), [73892dce](https://gitea.osgeo.org/postgis/postgis_tiger_geocoder/commit/73892dce), speed up `pagc_normalize_address()` by avoiding redundant wrapper
