@@ -32,6 +32,7 @@ Bugfixes:
  * SMTChecker: SSA control-flow did not take into account state variables that were modified inside inlined functions that were called inside branches.
  * Type System: Use correct type name for contracts in event parameters when used in
    libraries. This affected code generation.
+ * Type System: Allow direct call to base class functions that have overloads.
  * Yul: Properly register functions and disallow shadowing between function variables and variables in the outside scope.
  * Code Generator: Fix initialization routine of uninitialized internal function pointers in constructor context.
