+Key Updates
+===========
+
+* Improvements to CLAMP Automation Composition Management (ACM)
+
+  CLAMP ACM is improved with various new capabilities in newdelhi release. ACM supports tracing feature with the integration of openTelemetry for http and kafka tracing.
+  This provides a more efficient way of diagnosing bottlenecks and performance issues in the system.
+  Participant's outProperties are now retained during the restart and redeployment scenario that can be consumed by the participants.
+  New Regression test suite has been added to test the ACM workflow with various combinations of ACM-R and participant versions.
+  ACM element versions can now be upgraded during Migration.
+
+  See:
+   - `POLICY-4865 <https://jira.onap.org/browse/POLICY-4865>`_ - R14: Improvements specific to clamp
+
+* Backward compatibility support in ACM
+
+  From Newdelhi release, Users can deploy a newer version of ACM-R against an older participant version maintaining the backward compatibility.
+  Participant intermediary provides flexibility for the users to maintain the older version participant when ACM-R is upgraded.
+
+  See:
+   - `POLICY-4952 <https://jira.onap.org/browse/POLICY-4952>`_ - R14: Backward compatibility between ACM-R and participants
+
+* Oparent dependency removed
+
+  From newdelhi onwards, Policy framework can be installed without oparent maven dependency. policy-parent provides all the required dependencies and design rule configurations
+  for the policy components.
+
+  See:
+   - `POLICY-4960 <https://jira.onap.org/browse/POLICY-4960>`_ - R14: Remove oparent dependency from PF
+
+* Tracing support in clamp
+
+  Distributed tracing of messages between acm, participants, databases, rest is available in policy clamp that helps to diagnose the bottlenecks and performance issues in the system.
+  A combination of OpenTelemetry and Micrometer is used to achieve this.
+
+  See:
+   - `POLICY-4875 <https://jira.onap.org/browse/POLICY-4875>`_ - R14: Add support for Open Telemetry in ACM.
