 ## I/Os
 
-* gcs-connector config options can be set via GcsOptions (Java) ([#32769](https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/32769)).
 * Support for X source added (Java/Python) ([#X](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/X)).
-* [Managed Iceberg] Support partitioning by time (year, month, day, hour) for types `date`, `time`, `timestamp`, and `timestamp(tz)` ([#32939](https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/32939))
-* Upgraded the default version of Hadoop dependencies to 3.4.1. Hadoop 2.10.2 is still supported (Java) ([#33011](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/33011)).
-* [BigQueryIO] Create managed BigLake tables dynamically ([#33125](https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/33125))
 
 ## New Features / Improvements
 
-* Added support for stateful processing in Spark Runner for streaming pipelines. Timer functionality is not yet supported and will be implemented in a future release ([#33237](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/33237)).
-* Improved batch performance of SparkRunner's GroupByKey ([#20943](https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/20943)).
-* Support OnWindowExpiration in Prism ([#32211](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/32211)).
-  * This enables initial Java GroupIntoBatches support.
-* Support OrderedListState in Prism ([#32929](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/32929)).
 * X feature added (Java/Python) ([#X](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/X)).
 
 ## Breaking Changes
 
-* Upgraded ZetaSQL to 2024.11.1 ([#32902](https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/32902)). Java11+ is now needed if Beam's ZetaSQL component is used.
 * X behavior was changed ([#X](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/X)).
