+NetworkManager-1.44
+Overview of changes since NetworkManager-1.42
+=============================================
 
-* Add build option to set the mobile-broadband-provider-info database
-  path.
-* Add new "ipv[46].replace-local-rule" setting to control whether to
-  remove the local route rule that is automatically generated.
-* Add the DHCPv6 IAID to the lease information exposed in /run and on
-  D-Bus.
-* Fix assuming team connections at boot.
-* Fix race condition when setting the MAC address of an OVS interface.
-* Fix constructing the IPv4 name servers variable passed to dispatcher
-  scripts.
-* Don't use tentative IPv6 address to resolve the system hostname via DNS.
-* Deprecate the "Master" property of the NMActiveConnection D-Bus object
-  in favor of the new "Controller" property.
+* Introduce a new "link" setting that holds properties related to the
+  kernel link such as "tx-queue-length", "gso-max-size",
+  "gso-max-segments", "gro-max-size".
+* Support sending a DHCPv6 prefix delegation hint via the
+  "ipv6.dhcp-pd-hint" connection property.
+* Support new bond options: "arp_missed_max", "lacp_active",
+  "ns_ip6_target".
+* Add new "initial-eps-bearer-configure" and "initial-eps-bearer-apn"
+  properties in the GSM setting.
+* Setting "connection.stable-id=default${CONNECTION}" changed behavior to
+  be identical to the built-in default value when the stable-id is not set.
+* Add a "[keyfile].rename" option to NetworkManager.conf to force renaming
+  profiles on disk when their name changes.
+* The ifcfg-rh plugin is deprecated; it will only receive bugfixes and
+  no new features. A warning is emitted the log when a connection in
+  ifcfg-rh format is found.
+* To automatically migrate existing ifcfg-rh connections to the
+  keyfile format, a new configuration option "main.migrate-ifcfg-rh"
+  is provided. Migration is disabled by default, but the default value
+  can be changed at build time via
+  "--with-config-migrate-ifcfg-rh-default=yes".
+* When configuring hostnames in non-public TLD (like "example.local"), use
+  the TLD as default search domain instead of the full hostname.
+* Always apply DNS options from the [global-dns] configuration section
+* The NetworkManager daemon now acquires the D-Bus name only after
+  populating the D-Bus tree. This can add a delay during startup but
+  it is required to avoid race conditions with other services
+  depending on NM.
+* Add a "version-id" argument to the Update2() D-Bus call to guard
+  against concurrent modifications of profiles.
+* Don't use tentative IPv6 addresses to resolve the system hostname
+  via DNS.
+* Track the number of autoconnect retries left for each device and
+  connection. Previously it was tracked only per connection and this
+  lead to unexpected behaviors in case of multiconnect profiles.
+* Set VLAN filtering options on bridge via netlink instead of sysfs.
+* nm-cloud-setup now supports IMDSv2 on Amazon EC2.
+* nmtui now allows to enable or disable Wi-Fi and WWAN radios.
+* Honor ignore-carrier=no for bond/bridge/team devices.
+* Add version mismatch warning when running nmcli commands.
+
+The following changes were backported to 1.42.x releases between 1.42.0
+and 1.42.8, and are also present in NetworkManager-1.44:
+
+- 1.42.8
+* Support compiling against pppd 2.5.0.
+* Support the "prio" option for bond ports.
+* Better handle non-full-membership PKEY_ID with new PKEY_ID_NM
+  variable in ifcfg-rh files.
+
+- 1.42.2
+* Add new "ipv[46].replace-local-rule" connection property that allows
+  users to remove the autogenerated local route rule. By default,
+  NetworkManager won't touch the local route rule.
+* Introduce a new D-Bus property "Controller" in the ActiveConnection
+  object, and deprecated the existing "Master" property.
