## v0.93.0

### 🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

- `bug_fix`: Implement `encoding.BinaryMarshaler` interface to prevent `configopaque` -> `[]byte` -> `string` conversions from leaking the value (#9279)
- `configopaque`: configopaque.String implements `fmt.Stringer` and `fmt.GoStringer`, outputting [REDACTED] when formatted with the %s, %q or %#v verbs` (#9213)
  This may break applications that rely on the previous behavior of opaque strings with `fmt.Sprintf` to e.g. build URLs or headers.
  Explicitly cast the opaque string to a string before using it in `fmt.Sprintf` to restore the previous behavior.
  
- `all`: Remove obsolete "// +build" directives (#9304)
- `connectortest`: Remove deprecated connectortest router helpers. (#9278)

### 🚩 Deprecations 🚩

- `obsreporttest`: deprecate test funcs/structs (#8492)
  The following methods/structs have been moved from obsreporttest to componenttest:
  - obsreporttest.TestTelemetry -> componenttest.TestTelemetry
  - obsreporttest.SetupTelemetry -> componenttest.SetupTelemetry
  - obsreporttest.CheckScraperMetrics -> TestTelemetry.CheckScraperMetrics
  - obserporttest.TestTelemetry.TelemetrySettings -> componenttest.TestTelemetry.TelemetrySettings()
  
- `confignet`: Deprecates `DialContext` and `ListenContext` functions. Use `Dial` and `Listen` instead. (#9258)
  Unlike the previous `Dial` and `Listen` functions, the new `Dial` and `Listen` functions take a `context.Context` like `DialContext` and `ListenContext`.

### 🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

- `otelcol`: CollectorSettings.Factories now expects: `func() (Factories, error)` (#8478)
- `exporter/exporterhelper`: The experimental Request API is updated. (#7874)
  - `Request` interface now includes ItemsCount() method.
  - `RequestItemsCounter` is removed.
  - The following interfaces are added:
    - Added an optional interface for handling errors that occur during request processing `RequestErrorHandler`.
    - Added a function to unmarshal bytes into a Request `RequestUnmarshaler`.
    - Added a function to marshal a Request into bytes `RequestMarshaler`
  

### 🚩 Deprecations 🚩

- `featuregate`: Deprecate `featuregate.NewFlag` in favor of `featuregate.Registry`'s `RegisterFlags` method (#8727)

### 💡 Enhancements 💡

- `featuregate`: Add validation for feature gates ID, URL and versions. (#8766)
  Feature gates IDs are now explicitly restricted to ASCII alphanumerics and dots.
  

## v1.0.0-rcv0017/v0.88.0

### 💡 Enhancements 💡

- `pdata`: Add IsReadOnly() method to p[metrics|logs|traces].[Metrics|Logs|Spans] pdata structs allowing to check if the struct is read-only. (#6794)

## v1.0.0-rcv0016/v0.87.0

### 💡 Enhancements 💡

- `pdata`: Introduce API to control pdata mutability (#6794)
  This change introduces new API pdata methods to control the mutability:
  - p[metric|trace|log].[Metrics|Traces|Logs].MarkReadOnly() - marks the pdata as read-only. Any subsequent
    mutations will result in a panic.
  - p[metric|trace|log].[Metrics|Traces|Logs].IsReadOnly() - returns true if the pdata is marked as read-only.
  Currently, all the data is kept mutable. This API will be used by fanout consumer in the following releases. 

### 🛑 Breaking changes 🛑
