--->
+- Given the amount of warnings raised in the broader ecosystem, we've decided to only soft-deprecate the *hash* argument to `@define` / `@attr.s`.
+  Please don't use it in new code, but we don't intend to remove it anymore.
+  [#1330](https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/1330)
+
+
+### Changes
+
+- `attrs.converters.pipe()` (and its syntactic sugar of passing a list for `attrs.field()`'s / `attr.ib()`'s *converter* argument) works again when passing `attrs.setters.convert` to *on_setattr* (which is default for `attrs.define`).
+  [#1328](https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/issues/1328)
+- Restored support for PEP [649](https://peps.python.org/pep-0649/) / [749](https://peps.python.org/pep-0749/)-implementing Pythons -- currently 3.14-dev.
