 ## Unreleased
 
- - Add `memory::memcpy_dtoh` to allow copying from device to host.
- - Add support in `memory` for pitched malloc and 2D memcpy between device and host.
- - `Stream::add_callback` now internally uses `cuStreamAddCallback` again, since there are no current plans to remove it (https://stackoverflow.com/a/58173486). As a result, the function again takes a device status as a parameter and *does* execute on context error.
+- Add `memory::memcpy_dtoh` to allow copying from device to host.
+- `DeviceSlice` is represented as a slice again, but as `[()]` instead of `[T]`.
+- Reimplemented `Index` and `IndexMut` for `DeviceSlice` and removed `DeviceSlice::index`.
+- Methods that returned `DeviceSlice` by value now return references:
+    - `DeviceSlice::from_raw_parts`
+    - `DeviceSlice::from_raw_parts_mut`
+    - `DeviceSliceIndex::index`
+    - `DeviceSliceIndex::get_unchecked`
+- Added `DeviceSliceIndex::index_mut` and `DeviceSliceIndex::get_unchecked_mut`.
+- Add support in `memory` for pitched malloc and 2D memcpy between device and host.
