 ## Library Updates
 
+### [hecs]
+
+[hecs] is a fast, lightweight, and unopinionated archetypal ECS library.
+
+[Version 0.8][hecs-changelog] marks a breaking change to most methods that
+previously took a generic type parameter `T: Component`, replacing them with
+methods taking type parameters which must be *references to* component types
+instead. This resolves a long-standing footgun where users accustomed to writing
+`&T` in queries might write `world.get::<&T>`, interpreted by rustc as
+referencing the valid component type `&'static T`, resulting in code that
+compiles but fails to access the intended component.
