+## v1.11.6 {date="2024-08-02"}
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+- Prevent retention service from hanging, which could lead to a failure to remove old shards.
+- Fix shard precreation service to pre-create shards for more than the first database.
+- Fix issues with remote iterators caused by floating point literals being rounded in a way that causes precision loss and can drastically change the result.
+  This impacts InfluxQL statements that require creating remote iterators.
+  Clusters with replication across all data nodes are unlikely to see this issue.
+  The additional visible changes of this fix include:
+  - Changes precision of floating point numbers in error messages related to InfluxQL.
+  - Changes precision of floating point numbers in "EXPLAIN" and "EXPLAIN ANALYZE" output.
+  - Changes precision of floating point numbers from InfluxQL expressions included in tracing spans.
+- Fix panic when empty tags are queried.
+- Fix `influx_inspect` error when deleting last measurement.
+- Improve TSM error handling.
+
+### Other
+
+- Upgrade Flux to v0.194.5.
+- Upgrade Go to 1.21.10.
+- Upgrade `protobuf` library.
