| 29 | + |
| 30 | +## Highlights |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +* (Python) Add YAML Editor and Visualization Panel ([#35772](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/35772)). |
| 33 | +* (Java) Java 25 Support ([#35772](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/35627)). |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +### I/Os |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +* Upgraded Iceberg dependency to 1.10.0 ([#36123](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36123)). |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +### New Features / Improvements |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +* Enhance JAXBCoder with XMLInputFactory support (Java) ([#36446](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36446)). |
| 42 | +* Python examples added for CloudSQL enrichment handler on [Beam website](https://beam.apache.org/documentation/transforms/python/elementwise/enrichment-cloudsql/) (Python) ([#35473](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36095)). |
| 43 | +* Support for batch mode execution in WriteToPubSub transform added (Python) ([#35990](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/35990)). |
| 44 | +* Added official support for Python 3.13 ([#34869](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/34869)). |
| 45 | +* Added an optional output_schema verification to all YAML transforms ([#35952](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/35952)). |
| 46 | +* Support for encryption when using GroupByKey added, along with `--gbek` pipeline option to automatically replace all GroupByKey transforms (Java/Python) ([#36214](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36214)). |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +### Breaking Changes |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +* (Python) Fixed transform naming conflict when executing DataTransform on a dictionary of PColls ([#30445](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/30445)). |
| 51 | + This may break update compatibility if you don't provide a `--transform_name_mapping`. |
| 52 | +* Removed deprecated Hadoop versions (2.10.2 and 3.2.4) that are no longer supported for [Iceberg](https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/10940) from IcebergIO ([#36282](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36282)). |
| 53 | +* (Go) Coder construction on SDK side is more faithful to the specs from runners without stripping length-prefix. This may break streaming pipeline update as the underlying coder could be changed ([#36387](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36387)). |
| 54 | +* Minimum Go version for Beam Go updated to 1.25.2 ([#36461](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36461)). |
| 55 | +* (Java) DoFn OutputReceiver now requires implementing a builder method as part of extended metadata support for elements ([#34902](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/34902)). |
| 56 | +* (Java) Removed ProcessContext outputWindowedValue introduced in 2.68 that allowed setting offset and record Id. Use OutputReceiver's builder to set those field ([#36523]https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/36523). |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +### Bugfixes |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +* Fixed passing of pipeline options to x-lang transforms when called from the Java SDK (Java) ([#36443](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36443)). |
| 61 | +* PulsarIO has now changed support status from incomplete to experimental. Both read and writes should now minimally |
| 62 | + function (un-partitioned topics, without schema support, timestamp ordered messages for read) (Java) |
| 63 | + ([#36141](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36141)). |
| 64 | +* Fixed Spanner Change Stream reading stuck issue due to watermark of partition moving backwards ([#36470](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36470)). |
