-* [Client] Added support for custom CA chain validation (#1851, thanks to @rido-min).
-* [Client] Added support for custom CA chain validation (#1851, thanks to @rido-min).
-* [Client] Fixed handling of unobserved tasks exceptions (#1871).
-* [Client] Fixed not specified ReasonCode when using _SendExtendedAuthenticationExchangeDataAsync_ (#1882, thanks to @rido-min).
-* [Server] Fixed not working _UpdateRetainedMessageAsync_ public api (#1858, thanks to @kimdiego2098).
-* [Server] Added support for custom DISCONNECT packets when stopping the server or disconnect a client (BREAKING CHANGE!, #1846).
-* [Server] Added new property to stop the server from accepting new connections even if it is running (#1846).
+* [Client] Exposed the _EndPoint_ type to support other endpoint types (like Unix Domain Sockets) in client options (#1919).
+* [ManagedClient] Added support for intercepting (and cancelling) publish messages (#1915, thanks to @hannasm).
+* [Server] Added new events for delivered and dropped messages (#1866, thanks to @kallayj).
+* [Server] The server will no longer treat a client which is receiving a large payload as alive. The packet must be received completely within the keep alive boundaries (BREAKING CHANGE!, #1883).
+* [Server] Fixed "service not registered" exception in ASP.NET integration (#1889).
