 ### Features
 
-* Support conditional mapping for source parameters (#2610, #3459, #3270)
-* Add `@SourcePropertyName` to handle a property name of the source object (#3323) - Currently only applicable for `@Condition` methods
-
 ### Enhancements

 ### Bugs
 
-* `@Condition` cannot be used only with `@Context` parameters (#3561)
-* `@Condition` treated as ambiguous mapping for methods returning Boolean/boolean (#3565)
-* Subclass mapping warns about unmapped property that is mapped in referenced mapper (#3360)
-* Interface inherited build method is not found (#3463)
-* Bean with getter returning Stream is treating the Stream as an alternative setter (#3462)
-* Using `Mapping#expression` and `Mapping#conditionalQualifiedBy(Name)` should lead to compile error (#3413)
-* Defined mappings for subclass mappings with runtime exception subclass exhaustive strategy not working if result type is abstract class (#3331)
-
