+
+Minor Changes
+-------------
+
+- cobbler inventory plugin - add ``include_profiles`` option (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4068).
+- gitlab_project_variable - new ``variables`` parameter (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4038).

+- lxc_container - added ``wait_for_container`` parameter. If ``true`` the module will wait until the running task reports success as the status (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4039).
+- mail callback plugin - add ``Message-ID`` and ``Date`` headers (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4055, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4056).
+- mail callback plugin - properly use Ansible's option handling to split lists (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4140).
+- nmcli - adds ``routes6`` and ``route_metric6`` parameters for supporting IPv6 routes (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4059).
+- opennebula - add the release action for VMs in the ``HOLD`` state (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4036).
+- opentelemetry_plugin - enrich service when using the ``docker_login`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4104).
+- proxmox modules - move ``HAS_PROXMOXER`` check into ``module_utils`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4030).

+- snap - add option ``options`` permitting to set options using the ``snap set`` command (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3943).
+
+Deprecated Features
+-------------------
+
+- mail callback plugin - not specifying ``sender`` is deprecated and will be disallowed in community.general 6.0.0 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4140).
+
+Bugfixes
+--------
+
+- cargo - fix detection of outdated packages when ``state=latest`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4052).
+- cargo - fix incorrectly reported changed status for packages with a name containing a hyphen (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4044, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4052).
+- gitlab_project_variable - add missing documentation about GitLab versions that support ``environment_scope`` and ``variable_type`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4038).
+- gitlab_project_variable - allow to set same variable name under different environment scopes. Due this change, the return value ``project_variable`` differs from previous version in check mode. It was counting ``updated`` values, because it was accidentally overwriting environment scopes (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4038).
+- gitlab_project_variable - fix idempotent change behaviour for float and integer variables (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4038).
+- gitlab_runner - use correct API endpoint to create and retrieve project level runners when using ``project`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/3965).
+- listen_ports_facts - local port regex was not handling well IPv6 only binding. Fixes the regex for ``ss`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4092).
+- mail callback plugin - fix crash on Python 3 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4025, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4026).
+- opentelemetry - fix generating a trace with a task containing ``no_log: true`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4043).
+- python_requirements_info - store ``mismatched`` return values per package as documented in the module (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4078).
+- yarn - fix incorrect handling of ``yarn list`` and ``yarn global list`` output that could result in fatal error (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4050).
+- yarn - fix incorrectly reported status when installing a package globally (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4045, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4050).
+- yarn - fix missing ``~`` expansion in yarn global install folder which resulted in incorrect task status (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/4045, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/4048).
