+* Ensure duration parsing is consistent across DST changes
+
+ Previously `ActiveSupport::Duration.parse` used `Time.current` and
+ `Time#advance` to calculate the number of seconds in the duration
+ from an arbitrary collection of parts. However as `advance` tries to
+ be consistent across DST boundaries this meant that either the
+ duration was shorter or longer depending on the time of year.
+
+ This was fixed by using an absolute reference point in UTC which
+ isn't subject to DST transitions. An arbitrary date of Jan 1st, 2000
+ was chosen for no other reason that it seemed appropriate.
+
+ Additionally, duration parsing should now be marginally faster as we
+ are no longer creating instances of `ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone`
+ every time we parse a duration string.
+
+ Fixes #26941.
+
+ *Andrew White*
+
+* Use `Hash#compact` and `Hash#compact!` from Ruby 2.4. Old Ruby versions
+ will continue to get these methods from Active Support as before.
+
+ *Prathamesh Sonpatki*
+
+* Fix `ActiveSupport::TimeZone#strptime`.
+ Support for timestamps in format of seconds (%s) and milliseconds (%Q).
+
+ Fixes #26840.
+
+ *Lev Denisov*
+
+* Fix `DateAndTime::Calculations#copy_time_to`. Copy `nsec` instead of `usec`.
+
+ Jumping forward or backward between weeks now preserves nanosecond digits.
+
+ *Josua Schmid*
+
* Fix `ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone#in` across DST boundaries.
Previously calls to `in` were being sent to the non-DST aware
