 ### BUG FIXES
 
-- [Relayer Library](relayer)
-  - Allow relaying ICS-04 packets with non-UTF-8 payloads ([\#3770](https://github.com/informalsystems/hermes/issues/3770))
-    Hermes does not assume anymore that an ICS-04 packet data is valid UTF-8,
-    by using the `packet_data_hex` attribute when assembling a packet from events, instead of the deprecated `packet_data` attribute.
-    Relying on the `packet_data` attribute enforces a UTF-8 encoded payload (eg. JSON), disallowing eg. Protobuf-encoded payloads.
-    The `packet_data` attribute [has been deprecated][0] in favor of `packet_data_hex` since IBC-Go v1.0.0.
-    [0]: https://github.com/cosmos/ibc-go/blob/fadf8f2b0ab184798d021d220d877e00c7634e26/CHANGELOG.md?plain=1#L1417

 ### FEATURES
 
-- [Relayer Library](relayer)
-  - Add a per-chain configuration `excluded_sequences` allowing
-    users to specify a list of packet sequences which will not be
-    cleared.
-    This configuration has no impact on standard packet relaying.
-    ([\#3754](https://github.com/informalsystems/hermes/issues/3754))
-  - Add a per-chain configuration `memo_overwrite` allowing users
-    to overwrite the relayer memo used for each transaction
-    ([\#3811](https://github.com/informalsystems/hermes/issues/3811))
-- [Telemetry & Metrics](telemetry)
-  - Added a new Prometheus metric `simulate_errors` for tracking when a transaction simulation fails, with the following labels:

 ### IMPROVEMENTS
 
-- General
-  - Use the consensus state at client latest height in status CLI ([#3814])
-    [#3814]: https://github.com/informalsystems/ibc-rs/issues/3814
-  - Add syncing check for gRPC node ([#3814])
-    [#3814]: https://github.com/informalsystems/ibc-rs/issues/3814
-- [Relayer Library](relayer)
-  - Improve the log diagnostic when an out of gas error is thrown.
-    And a new entry related to gas error has been added to the Hermes
-    guide.
-    ([\#3530](https://github.com/informalsystems/hermes/issues/3530))
-  - Improve resilience when relaying on ordered channels.
-    When relaying packets on an ordered channel, Hermes will now attempt
-    to detect whether the next message to send has the sequence number
-    expected on that channel. If there is a mismatch, then Hermes will trigger a packet
-    clear on the channel to unblock it before resuming operations on that channel.
-    ([\#3540](https://github.com/informalsystems/hermes/issues/3540))
-  - Recover from gas simulation failures on legacy chains.
-    ([\#3792](https://github.com/informalsystems/hermes/issues/3792))
