+======
+
+Release Summary
+---------------
+
+Regular bugfix and features release.
+
+Minor Changes
+-------------
+
+- Use offset-aware ``datetime.datetime`` objects (with timezone UTC) instead of offset-naive UTC timestamps, which are deprecated in Python 3.12 (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8222).
+- apt_rpm - add new states ``latest`` and ``present_not_latest``. The value ``latest`` is equivalent to the current behavior of ``present``, which will upgrade a package if a newer version exists. ``present_not_latest`` does what most users would expect ``present`` to do: it does not upgrade if the package is already installed. The current behavior of ``present`` will be deprecated in a later version, and eventually changed to that of ``present_not_latest`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8217, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8247).
+- bitwarden lookup plugin - add support to filter by organization ID (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8188).
+- filesystem - add bcachefs support (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8126).
+- ini_file - add an optional parameter ``section_has_values``. If the target ini file contains more than one ``section``, use ``section_has_values`` to specify which one should be updated (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/7505).
+- java_cert - add ``cert_content`` argument (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8153).
+- keycloak_client, keycloak_clientscope, keycloak_clienttemplate - added ``docker-v2`` protocol support, enhancing alignment with Keycloak's protocol options (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8215, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8216).
+- nmcli - adds OpenvSwitch support with new ``type`` values ``ovs-port``, ``ovs-interface``, and ``ovs-bridge``, and new ``slave_type`` value ``ovs-port`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8154).
+- osx_defaults - add option ``check_types`` to enable changing the type of existing defaults on the fly (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8173).
+- passwordstore lookup - add ``missing_subkey`` parameter defining the behavior of the lookup when a passwordstore subkey is missing (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8166).
+- portage - adds the possibility to explicitely tell portage to write packages to world file (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/6226, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8236).
+- redfish_command - add command ``ResetToDefaults`` to reset manager to default state (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8163).
+- redfish_info - add boolean return value ``MultipartHttpPush`` to ``GetFirmwareUpdateCapabilities`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8194, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8195).
+- ssh_config - allow ``accept-new`` as valid value for ``strict_host_key_checking`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8257).
+
+Deprecated Features
+-------------------
+
+- hipchat callback plugin - the hipchat service has been discontinued and the self-hosted variant has been End of Life since 2020. The callback plugin is therefore deprecated and will be removed from community.general 10.0.0 if nobody provides compelling reasons to still keep it (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8184, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8189).
+
+Bugfixes
+--------
+
+- aix_filesystem - fix ``_validate_vg`` not passing VG name to ``lsvg_cmd`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8151).
+- apt_rpm - when checking whether packages were installed after running ``apt-get -y install <packages>``, only the last package name was checked (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8263).
+- bitwarden_secrets_manager lookup plugin - implements retry with exponential backoff to avoid lookup errors when Bitwardn's API rate limiting is encountered (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8230, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8238).
+- from_ini filter plugin - disabling interpolation of ``ConfigParser`` to allow converting values with a ``%`` sign (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8183, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8185).
+- gitlab_issue, gitlab_label, gitlab_milestone - avoid crash during version comparison when the python-gitlab Python module is not installed (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8158).
+- haproxy - fix an issue where HAProxy could get stuck in DRAIN mode when the backend was unreachable (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8092).
+- inventory plugins - add unsafe wrapper to avoid marking strings that do not contain ``{`` or ``}`` as unsafe, to work around a bug in AWX ((https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8212, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8225).
+- ipa - fix get version regex in IPA module_utils (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8175).
+- keycloak_client - add sorted ``defaultClientScopes`` and ``optionalClientScopes`` to normalizations (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8223).
+- keycloak_realm - add normalizations for ``enabledEventTypes`` and ``supportedLocales`` (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8224).
+- puppet - add option ``environment_lang`` to set the environment language encoding. Defaults to lang ``C``. It is recommended to set it to ``C.UTF-8`` or ``en_US.UTF-8`` depending on what is available on your system. (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8000)
+- riak - support ``riak admin`` sub-command in newer Riak KV versions beside the legacy ``riak-admin`` main command (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8211).
+- to_ini filter plugin - disabling interpolation of ``ConfigParser`` to allow converting values with a ``%`` sign (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/issues/8183, https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8185).
+- xml - make module work with lxml 5.1.1, which removed some internals that the module was relying on (https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.general/pull/8169).
+
+New Modules
+-----------
+
+- keycloak_client_rolescope - Allows administration of Keycloak client roles scope to restrict the usage of certain roles to a other specific client applications.
