 ## [unreleased]
 
+The most noteworthy additions in this release are:
+
+1. Titlebar window icons and layout configuration
+2. Support for the cosmic-workspace protocol and the openbox inspired
+   client-list-combined-menu for a better user experience with workspaces.
+
+Notes to package maintainers:
+
+- The SSD titlebar window icon support requires libsfdo to be added as a
+  dependency or statically linked. If this is not wanted, add -Dicon=disabled to
+  the `meson setup` command in the build script for the next release.
+- PRs #1716 and #2205 add labwc xdg-portal configuration, modify `labwc.desktop`
+  and amend `XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP` which should enable better out-of-the-box
+  support for xdg-desktop-portal, but if you already ship a custom setup for
+  this you or have different requirements, please review this change.

+  2. `client-send-to` shows all workspaces that the current window can be sent

 ### Changed
 
+- Theme options `padding.height` and `titlebar.height` have been removed to

+  the titlebar height may change by a small number of pixels (#2189)
 - Move input config `<scrollFactor>` to `<libinput>` section to allow
   per-device configuration of scroll factor (e.g. setting different scroll
   factors for mice and touchpads). (#2057)
