 This release includes new features, improvements, and bug fixes. Among these are the new elements. First is the `ImageStack` element allows you to easily visualize a 3D array, while the `VLines`, `HLines`, `VSpans`, and `HSpans` elements allow you to visualize vertical and horizontal lines and spans easily. In addition, this release includes support for subcoordinate systems in the y-axis and various other enhancements and bug fixes. This release adds support for the newest Python 3.12 and Bokeh 3.3 and drops support for Python 3.8 and Bokeh 2.

Datashaders `where` and `summary` aggregators are now supported, and `rasterize` now has a `selector` option, making it easy to get extra information about your rasterized data.

 Major new features:
 
--   Data API: The new data API brings an extensible system of to add new
-    data interfaces to column based Element types. These interfaces
-    allow applying powerful operations on the data independently of the
-    data format. The currently supported datatypes include NumPy, pandas
-    dataframes and a simple dictionary format. ([PR
-    \#284](https://github.com/pyviz/holoviews/pull/284))
--   Backend API: In this release we completely refactored the rendering,
-    plotting and IPython display system to make it easy to add new
-    plotting backends. Data may be styled and pickled for each backend
-    independently and renderers now support exporting all plotting data
-    including widgets as standalone HTML files or with separate
-    JSON data.
--   Bokeh backend: The first new plotting backend added via the new
-    backend API. Bokeh plots allow for much faster plotting and
-    greater interactivity. Supports most Element types and layouts and
-    provides facilities for sharing axes across plots and linked
-    brushing across plots. ([PR
-    \#250](https://github.com/pyviz/holoviews/pull/250))
--   DynamicMap: The new DynamicMap class allows HoloMap data to be
-    generated on-the-fly while running a Jupyter IPython
-    notebook kernel. Allows visualization of unbounded data streams and
-    smooth exploration of large continuous parameter spaces. ([PR
