+  - otelcol_processor_outgoing_metric_points
+  - otelcol_processor_incoming_log_records
+  - otelcol_processor_outgoing_log_records

+
+### 🚩 Deprecations 🚩
+
+- `processorhelper`: deprecate accepted/refused/dropped metrics ([#11201](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/pull/11201))
+  The following metrics are being deprecated as they were only used in a single
+  processor:
+  - `otelcol_processor_accepted_log_records`
+  - `otelcol_processor_accepted_metric_points`
+  - `otelcol_processor_accepted_spans`
+  - `otelcol_processor_dropped_log_records`
+  - `otelcol_processor_dropped_metric_points`
+  - `otelcol_processor_dropped_spans`
+  - `otelcol_processor_refused_log_records`
+  - `otelcol_processor_refused_metric_points`
+  - `otelcol_processor_refused_spans`
+- `hostmetricsreceiver`: Set the receiver.hostmetrics.normalizeProcessCPUUtilization feature gate to stable. ([#34763](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/pull/34763))
+
+### 💡 Enhancements 💡
+
+- `mdatagen`: Add stability field to telemetry metrics, allowing the generated description to include a stability string. ([#11160](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/pull/11160))
+- `confmap/provider/envprovider`: Support default values when env var is empty ([#5228](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/pull/5228))
+- `service/telemetry`: Mark useOtelWithSDKConfigurationForInternalTelemetry as stable ([#7532](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/pull/7532))
+- `mdatagen`: mdatagen `validateMetrics()` support validate metrics in `telemetry.metric` ([#10925](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/pull/10925))
+- `mdatagen`: Use cobra for the command, add version flag ([#11196](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/pull/11196))
+- `processor/transform`: Add custom function to the transform processor to convert exponential histograms to explicit histograms. ([#33827](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/pull/33827))
+- `pkg/ottl`: Improved JSON unmarshaling performance by 10-20% by switching dependencies. ([#35130](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/pull/35130))
+- `pkg/ottl`: Added support for locale in the Time converter ([#32978](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/pull/32978))

+
+### 🧰 Bug fixes 🧰
+
+- `service`: Ensure process telemetry is registered when internal telemetry is configured with readers instead of an address. ([#11093](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/pull/11093))
+- `mdatagen`: Fix incorrect generation of metric tests with boolean attributes. ([#11169](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/pull/11169))
+- `otelcol`: Fix the Windows Event Log configuration when running the Collector as a Windows service. ([#5297](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/pull/5297), [#11051](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/pull/11051))
+- `confmap`: Fix loading config of a component from a different source. ([#11154](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/pull/11154))
+  This issue only affected loading the whole component config, loading parts of a component config from a different source was working correctly.
+- `pkg/stanza`: Do not get formatted message for Windows events without an event provider. ([#35135](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/pull/35135))
