+## [0.4.0] — 2026-09-30
+
+### ⚠️ Operational migrations
+
+- **NATS durable consumer names are now sanitized.** `EventBus` used to build
+  consumer names as `{subscriber}-{subject with '.'→'-'}`; subjects also
+  contain `*` and `>`, which JetStream rejects outright (`error 10103`). The
+  name is now built by collapsing every character outside `[a-zA-Z0-9_-]` to
+  `-`. **Deployed consumers subscribed under the old naming will see new,
+  empty consumers on upgrade** — either drain/retire old subscriptions before
+  upgrading, or accept a one-time redelivery from the deliver policy's start.
+- **NATS `history()` now scans forward from the start of the retained
+  stream** (`DeliverPolicy::All`) instead of `Last`, which returned at most
+  one message. Read-side behavior change: `list_events`/`counts` now actually
+  return history.
+
+### Added
+
+- **Apache Iggy provider** (`iggy` feature, SDK `iggy` 0.11 / server 0.9):
+  stream→topic mapping where each subject category is one topic (full subject
+  preserved in payload + `a3s-subject` user header; subscription filters
+  narrowed client-side), durable subscriptions as consumer groups with
+  explicitly stored offsets (at-least-once, last-consumed convention),
+  ephemeral subscriptions, subscribe-time head probing for `New`/`Last`
+  positioning, bounded connect timeout owned by the provider, PAT or
+  username/password login. Fail-closed where the broker cannot honor the
+  contract: `expected_sequence`, `DeliverPolicy::LastPerSubject`. Accepted
+  but ignored (per the trait contract): `max_deliver`, `backoff_secs`,
+  `max_ack_pending`, `ack_wait_secs`. Single-partition topics only
+  (`IggyPartitioning::Balanced` is a documented no-op in this version).
+- `EventBus::from_provider(Arc<dyn EventProvider>)` — share one provider
+  handle between the bus and its owner.
+- `EventBus::set_schema_registry` — setter symmetry with the other optional
+  capabilities (`with_schema_registry` was previously the only path).
+- **Broker routing failures now reach the DLQ.** `EventBus`'s documented
+  "routes failed events to a DlqHandler" contract is actually implemented:
+  failed sink deliveries produce a `DeadLetterEvent` (reason
+  `broker routing: n of m sink deliveries failed`) and advance the
+  `dlq_count` metric.
+- Deep end-to-end test assets: a cross-provider conformance suite (tier 0 on
+  every provider × 7 scenarios; tier 1 on persistent providers × 5), feature
+  e2e suites (pipeline, routing/bridge, cron source, crypto, CloudEvents,
+  messaging, DLQ/schema/sinks completion, chaos), and opt-in chaos tests
+  (broker restart mid-stream, PAT login) driven by environment variables.
+
+### Known issues (upstream)
+
+- **Iggy server 0.9.0 has an intermittent restart-path panic**: boot replay can
+  hit `client_id 0 is reserved for internal use` (`core/consensus/src/client_table.rs`)
+  when the persisted client table contains certain sessions, killing the shard
+  and the server. Discovered by this crate's opt-in chaos suite (broker restart
+  mid-stream). Repro: connect clients, publish, `docker restart` the container;
+  sometimes the server exits (1) during boot. A fresh container (recreate, not
+  restart) boots clean. Until fixed upstream, Iggy restarts in production need
+  a supervisor plus a readiness gate — and this is a reason the `iggy` feature
+  should not be considered GA-hardened even when this crate is.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- `InMemoryMessaging::send` prefixed targeted patterns with `session.`,
+  producing `session.session.<id>` — no documented filter could ever match a
+  targeted send (and `test_subscribe_and_send_to_specific_session` hung
+  every full `cargo test` run). Patterns are now the target id itself.
+- `matches_pattern` checked wildcards on the pattern side only, so
+  subscriber filters like `session.*` never matched targeted messages;
+  wildcards are now honored symmetrically.
+- Iggy `DeliverPolicy::ByStartTime` positioning was consumed on the first
+  poll even when it returned nothing, falling back to `offset(0)` and
+  delivering pre-cutoff events; a timestamp position now sticks until a poll
+  actually returns messages.
+- Several `clippy -D warnings` violations across the crate.

+### Apache Iggy Provider
+
+Requires `iggy` feature. Rust-native message streaming (stream → topic → partition). Subjects map onto Iggy with one rule: the stream holds every topic, and each subject **category** becomes a topic; subscription filters narrow client-side via `subject_matches`. Durable subscriptions are consumer groups with explicitly stored offsets (at-least-once); ordering is total within a category.
+
+```rust
+use a3s_event::provider::iggy::{IggyConfig, IggyProvider};
+
+let provider = IggyProvider::connect(IggyConfig {
+    server_address: "127.0.0.1:5102".to_string(),
+    stream_name: "a3s_events".to_string(),
+    subject_prefix: "events".to_string(),
+    max_age_secs: 604_800, // 7 days
+    ..Default::default()
+}).await?;
+```
+
+Known limitations of the current version (fail-closed, not silently ignored): `expected_sequence` and `DeliverPolicy::LastPerSubject` are rejected; `max_deliver`/`backoff_secs`/`max_ack_pending`/`ack_wait_secs` are accepted and ignored (Iggy's low-level polling has no per-group redelivery controls); topics are single-partition so `IggyPartitioning::Balanced` currently behaves like `Single`.
+
+## Operations
+
+- **Resilience (verified by opt-in chaos tests)**: an Iggy broker restart mid-stream preserves stream/topic/consumer-offset state; consumers reconnecting under the same name resume from their committed offset without replaying acked events. Dead group members are evicted after the server's `consumer_group.rebalancing_timeout` (default 30s). Run the chaos suite locally with `A3S_EVENT_IGGY_RESTART="docker restart <container>" cargo test --test e2e_chaos_resilience`.
+- **Timestamp positioning** (`DeliverPolicy::ByStartTime`) compares against the broker's server-side receive stamps; allow for clock skew between publishers and the broker when choosing cutoffs.
+- **Coverage discipline**: unit coverage is measured with `cargo llvm-cov --lib` (~83% lines; broker provider bodies are exercised by the live-server e2e suites instead). `cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings` runs against both the default and the `nats,iggy` feature sets in CI; the minimal core cross-compiles cleanly for Linux x64/arm64 and Windows.
+- **Baseline performance** (memory provider, crate release profile `opt-level=z` + LTO, criterion, Apple Silicon): publish ~203 µs per 100-event batch (~2.0 µs/event) and ~1.70 ms per 1000-event batch (~1.7 µs/event); `history(limit 100)` ~12.4 µs unfiltered / ~20.8 µs subject-filtered. Broker-backed providers are dominated by network round-trips, not this crate's envelope handling; run `cargo bench --bench publish` for your own baseline.
+- **Migration notes live in [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md)** — the 0.4.0 release changes NATS durable consumer naming and NATS `history()` semantics.

+# a3s-event 0.4.0 — GA readiness audit
+
+Date: 2026-09-30 · Branch: `feat/iggy-provider-ga` (local, not pushed)
+
+This document is the auditable evidence trail for calling this release
+production-ready. It separates what is **verified** from what is **gated on
+external action**, and names every known limitation. It is intentionally not
+a marketing document.
+
+## 1. Verification evidence
+
+### 1.1 Test matrices (all green, re-verified on a live broker)
+
+| Matrix | Result |
+|---|---|
+| Default features (nats/encryption/cloudevents/routing) | **280 passed / 0 failed** |
+| `nats,iggy` (no default) | **246 passed / 0 failed** — against a live `apache/iggy:0.9.0` container |
+| Chaos (opt-in env vars) | iggy restart-resume **passed live**; nats restart-recovery **passed live**; both skip cleanly when unset |
+
+Caveat recorded in the chaos suite: **always check the broker is alive after
+running chaos** — suites skip-pass against a dead server (skip-if-unavailable
+is the harness contract). The upstream restart bug (§3.1) makes this a real
+operational footgun, not a theoretical one.
+
+### 1.2 Depth of coverage
+
+- **Cross-provider conformance** (`tests/conformance.rs`): tier-0 (every
+  provider: envelope fidelity across 3 categories × 4 versions, fan-out
+  isolation with a 3-subscriber overlap matrix, per-category total order,
+  8×10 concurrent publish no-loss/no-dup, tail filters, options plumbing,
+  counts/info/health) and tier-1 (persistent providers: unacked redelivery,
+  resume across a NEW connection, group-rebuild replay, late-subscriber
+  ordered replay, competing consumers exactly-once across connections).
+- **Iggy contract matrix**: 32 rows, all implemented — including
+  poison-message tolerance (foreign non-JSON frame skipped without wedging)
+  and the two fail-closed surfaces (`expected_sequence`,
+  `LastPerSubject`).
+- **Feature e2e**: EventBus full pipeline (schema gate → encryption at rest
+  → broker routing → DLQ capture → state persistence across "restart" →
+  metrics audit), routing/bridge (filter matrix + cross-bus TopicSink),
+  CronSource lifecycle, crypto key-rotation/tamper, CloudEvents fidelity,
+  messaging isolation, DLQ capacity/predicate/SinkDlqHandler notification
+  contract, schema compatibility matrix (stepwise), error paths
+  (unwritable state store, always-failing provider).
+- **Bugs the depth bought** (all fixed, regression-covered): DLQ contract
+  unwired, wildcard matching dead code, NATS durable-name rejection,
+  NATS history policy, ByStartTime fallback-to-zero, messaging target
+  prefix, plus test-semantics fixes (clock-skew midpoint, per-connection
+  group identity, ack-wait redelivery windows).
+
+### 1.3 Static quality gates
+
+| Gate | Result |
+|---|---|
+| `cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings` | clean × 4 feature sets (default, nats, iggy, nats+iggy) |
+| `cargo fmt --check` | clean |
+| Unit coverage (`cargo llvm-cov --lib`) | **82.9% lines** (broker provider bodies exercised by live e2e, not counted) |
+| Cross-compile, minimal core | linux x64/arm64 + windows msvc clean (TLS deps need native or C cross-toolchain — CI runs native per-OS) |
+
+### 1.4 Performance baseline (criterion, crate release profile, Apple Silicon)
+
+Memory provider: publish ~203 µs/100-event batch (~2.0 µs/event), ~1.70 ms
+per 1000 (~1.7 µs/event); `history(100)` 12.4 µs / 20.8 µs filtered. Broker
+round-trips dominate all networked paths.
+
+### 1.5 Packaging
+
+`cargo publish --dry-run` verifies the packaged crate builds standalone and
+ships README/LICENSE/CHANGELOG/docs. The stray root-monorepo `.gitmodules`
+is excluded via `.gitignore` (never shipped).
+
+## 2. Known limitations (documented, not hidden)
+
+- iggy provider: no broker-side dedup (`msg_id` is header-only); redelivery
+  controls (`max_deliver`/`backoff`/`max_ack_pending`/`ack_wait`) accepted
+  and ignored; single-partition topics only (`Balanced` is a documented
+  no-op); group membership is per client connection.
+- History ordering across providers is not part of the contract (memory is
+  newest-first, brokers oldest-first).
+- TLS paths compile but have no e2e coverage.
+
+## 3. Gated on external action (the honest remainder)
+
+### 3.1 Upstream defect gating iggy-GA
+
+Iggy server 0.9.0 intermittently panics on restart boot replay
+(`client_id 0 is reserved for internal use`,
+`core/consensus/src/client_table.rs`), leaving the server unbootable with
+the same data directory. Observed twice locally. Issue draft:
+`docs/upstream-iggy-restart-panic.md` (not filed — needs authorization).
+**Until fixed upstream, the `iggy` feature must not be called
+GA-hardened**, regardless of this crate's own quality.
+
+### 3.2 Owner decisions
+
+- Push `feat/iggy-provider-ga`, wire CI to the remote, first remote run.
+- `cargo publish` for real (0.4.0; migration warnings in CHANGELOG §0.4.0).
+- How this crate rejoins the a3s monorepo (in-tree vs submodule re-pin) —
+  the root `.gitmodules` deletion is mid-conversion and is an owners' call.
+- Filing the upstream iggy issue.
+
+### 3.3 Time-gated
+
+- Production soak: weeks of real load. No substitute exists.
+
+## 4. Verdict
+
+For the **memory and nats** feature sets: engineering GA criteria are met
+(tests, gates, coverage, packaging, docs, migration notes) pending §3.2's
+publish/CI wiring. For the **iggy** feature set: same crate-level criteria
+are met, but the feature is explicitly **not GA** until §3.1 is resolved
+upstream — this is stated in the CHANGELOG and is not negotiable by test
+count.
