+## I have no idea where to start
+That's fine! Here's a rough outline where you could start, depending on your experience:
+
+### I'm a modeller (but not an experienced developer)
+You already know how to build Mesa models (if not skip below), and probably have found things Mesa can't do (elegantly). You want to improve that. Awesome!
+
+First step is to install some proper tools, if you haven't already.
+- A good IDE helps for code development, testing and formatting. [PyCharm](https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/) or [VSCode](https://code.visualstudio.com/) for example.
+- Dive into Git and GitHub. Watch some videos, this takes some time to click. [GitHub Desktop](https://desktop.github.com/) is great.
+- [`https://github.dev/projectmesa/mesa`](https://github.dev/projectmesa/mesa) is great for small changes (to docs).
+
+Learn the tools, talk to us about what you want to change, and open a small PR. Or update an [example model](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples) (check open [issues](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples/issues))!
+
+### I'm a developer (but not a modeller)
+Awesome! You have the basics of open-source software development (if not check above), but not much modelling experience.
+
+First step is to start thinking like a modeller. To understand the fine details about our library and contribute meaningfully, get some modelling experience:
+- Go though our [Introductory Tutorial](https://mesa.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/intro_tutorial.html) and [Visualization Tutorial](https://mesa.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/visualization_tutorial.html). While going through them, dive into the source code to really see what everything does.
+- Follow an ABM course (if possible). They might be a bit outdated programming language wise, but conceptual they're sound.
+  - This MOOC on ABM concepts: [Agent Based Modeling](https://ocw.tudelft.nl/course-lectures/agent-based-modeling/)
+  - This MOOC on practical ABM modelling: [Agent-Based Models with Python: An Introduction to Mesa](https://www.complexityexplorer.org/courses/172-agent-based-models-with-python-an-introduction-to-mesa)
+- Go though multiple of our [examples](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples). Play with them, modify things and get a feel for Mesa and ABMs.
+  - Check our open [issues](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples/issues) for the examples.
+  - If you see anything you want to improve, feel free to open a (small) PR!
+- If you have a feel for Mesa, check our [discussions](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/discussions) and [issues](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/issues).
+  - Also go thought our [release notes](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/releases) to see what we recently have been working on, and see some examples of successful PRs.
+- Once you found or thought of a nice idea, comment on the issue/discussion (or open a new one) and get to work!
+
+### I'm both
+That's great! You can just start working on things, reach out to us. Skim to the list above if you feel you're missing anything. Start small but don't be afraid to dream big!
+
+### I'm neither
+Start with creating your own models, for fun. Once you have some experience, move to the topics above.

 title: Release History
 ---
+# 3.0.0a3 (2024-08-30)
+## Highlights
+Developments toward Mesa 3.0 are steaming ahead, and our fourth alpha release is packed with features and updates - only 8 days after our third.
+
+Mesa 3.0.0a3 contains one breaking change: We now automatically increase the `steps` counter by one at the beginning of each `Model.steps()` call. That means increasing `steps` by hand isn't necessary anymore.
+
+The big new features is the experimental Voronoi grid that @vitorfrois implemented in #2084. It allows creating cells in a [Voronoi](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voronoi_diagram) layout as part of the experimental cell space. An example using it to model Cholera spread can be [found here](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples/pull/118).
+
+The AgentSet got a lot of love with two brand new methods: `.groupby()` to split in groups (#2220) and `.set()` to easily assign variables to all agents in that set (#2254). The `select()` method is improved by allowing to select at most a fraction of the agents (#2253), and we split the `do()` method in `do()` and `map()` to make a distinction between the return types (#2237).
+
+Furthermore, we improved the performance of accessing `Model.agents`, squashed a bug in SolaraViz, started testing on Python 3.13 and added a new benchmark model.
+
+Our example models also got more love: We removed the `RandomActivation` scheduler in 14 models and removed SimultaneousActivation in 3 models ([examples#183](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples/pull/183)). They now use the automatic step increase and AgentSet functionality. We started testing our GIS model in CI ([examples#171](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples/pull/171)) and resolved a lot of bugs in them ([examples#172](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples/issues/172), help appreciated!).
+
+Finally, we have two brand new examples: An Ant Colony Optimization model using an Ant System approach to the Traveling Salesman problem, a Mesa NetworkGrid, and a custom visualisation with SolaraViz ([examples#157](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples/pull/157) by @zjost). The first example using the `PropertyLayer` was added, a very fast implementation of Conway's Game of Life ([examples#182](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples/pull/182)).
+
+To help the transition to Mesa 3.0, we started writing a [migration guide](https://mesa.readthedocs.io/en/latest/migration_guide.html). Progress is tracked in #2233, feedback and help is appreciated! Finally, we also added a new section to our [contributor guide](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#i-have-no-idea-where-to-start) to get new contributors up to speed.
+
+This pre-release can be installed as always with `pip install --pre mesa`

+
+# 3.0.0a2 (2024-08-21)
+## Highlights
+In Mesa 3.0 alpha 2 (`v3.0.0a2`) we've done more clean-up in preparation for Mesa 3.0. We now [require](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/pull/2218) `super().__init__()`  to run on initializing a Mesa model subclass, `Model.agents` is now fully reserved for the Model's internal AgentSet and we fixed a bug in our Solara space_drawer.
+
+A new feature was added in [#2219](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/pull/2219), which now also allows `AgentSet.do()` to take any callable function, instead of only a string referencing to an Agent method. The argument name was changed from `method_name` to `method`.
+
+The new Solara visualisation now allows portraying agents in different shapes, checkout some examples in [#2214](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/pull/2214).
+
+We're also working hard on our [example models](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples). All model warnings were [resolved](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples/pull/153) and we've [replaced](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples/pull/161) a lot of schedulers with simpler and more flexible AgentSet functionality. Checkout our [open issues](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples/issues) if you want to help improve our example models further!

+# Mesa Migration guide
+This guide contains breaking changes between major Mesa versions and how to resolve them.
+
+Non-breaking changes aren't included, for those see our [Release history](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/releases).
+
+## Mesa 3.0
+<!-- TODO small introduction-->
+
+_This guide is a work in progress. The development of it is tracked in [Issue #2233](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/issues/2233)._
+
+### Reserved and private variables
+<!-- TODO: Update this section based on https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/discussions/2230 -->
+
+#### Reserved variables
+Currently, we have reserved the following variables:
+  - Model: `agents`, `current_id`, `random`, `running`, `steps`, `time`.
+  - Agent: `unique_id`, `model`.
+
+You can use (read) any reserved variable, but Mesa may update them automatically and rely on them, so modify/update at your own risk.
+#### Private variables
+Any variables starting with an underscore (`_`) are considered private and for Mesa's internal use. We might use any of those. Modifying or overwriting any private variable is at your own risk.
+
+- Ref: [Discussion #2230](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/discussions/2230), [PR #2225](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/pull/2225)
+
+
+### Removal of `mesa.flat` namespace
+The `mesa.flat` namespace is removed. Use the full namespace for your imports.
+
+- Ref: [PR #2091](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/pull/2091)
+
+
+### Automatic assignment of `unique_id` to Agents
+<!-- TODO -->
+
+- Ref: [PR #2226](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/pull/2226)
+
+
+### AgentSet and `Model.agents`
+#### AgentSet
+<!-- TODO  -->
+
+#### `Model.agents`
+<!-- TODO  -->
+
+
+### Time and schedulers
+<!-- TODO general explanation-->
+
+#### Automatic increase of the `steps` counter
+The `steps` counter is now automatically increased. With each call to `Model.steps()` it's increased by 1, at the beginning of the step.
+
+You can access it by `Model.steps`, and it's internally in the datacollector, batchrunner and the visualisation.
+
+- Ref: [PR #2223](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa/pull/2223), Mesa-examples [PR #161](https://github.com/projectmesa/mesa-examples/pull/161)
+
+#### Removal of `Model._time` and rename `._steps`
+- `Model._time` is removed. You can define your own time variable if needed.
+- `Model._steps` steps is renamed to `Model.steps`.
+
+#### Removal of `Model._advance_time()`
+- The `Model._advance_time()` method is removed. This now happens automatically.
+
+<!-- TODO deprecate all schedulers? -->
+
+
+### Visualisation
+<!-- TODO -->
