 # Release Notes
 
+## 1.6.3
+### Features
+- Handling of the `libpod.conf` configuration file has seen major changes. Most significantly, rootless users will no longer automatically receive a complete configuration file when they first use Podman, and will instead only receive differences from the global configuration.
+- Initial support for the CNI DNS plugin, which allows containers to resolve the IPs of other containers via DNS name, has been added
+- Podman now supports anonymous named volumes, created by specifying only a destination to the `-v` flag to the `podman create` and `podman run` commands
+- Named volumes now support `uid` and `gid` options in `--opt o=...` to set UID and GID of the created volume
+
+### Bugfixes
+- Fixed a bug where the `podman start` command would print container ID, instead of name, when starting containers given their name
+- Fixed a bug where named volumes with options did not properly detect issues with mounting the volume, leading to an inconsistent state ([#4303](https://github.com/containers/libpod/issues/4303))
+- Fixed a bug where incorrect Seccomp profiles were used in containers generated by `podman play kube`
+- Fixed a bug where processes started by `podman exec` would have the wrong SELinux label in some circumstances ([#4361](https://github.com/containers/libpod/issues/4361))
+- Fixed a bug where error messages from `slirp4netns` would be lost
+- Fixed a bug where `podman run --network=$NAME` would not throw an error in rootless Podman, where CNI networks are not supported
+- Fixed a bug where `podman network create` would throw confusing errors when trying to create a volume with a name that already exists
+- Fixed a bug where Podman would not error if the `systemd` CGroup manager was specified, but systemd could not be contacted over DBus
+- Fixed a bug where image volumes were mounted `noexec` ([#4318](https://github.com/containers/libpod/issues/4318))
+- Fixed a bug where the `podman stats` command required the name of a container to be given, instead of showing all containers when no container was specified ([#4274](https://github.com/containers/libpod/issues/4274))
+- Fixed a bug where the `podman volume inspect` command would not show the options that named volumes were created with
+- Fixed a bug where custom storage configuration was not written to `storage.conf` at time of first creation for rootless Podman ([#2659](https://github.com/containers/libpod/issues/2659))
+- Fixed a bug where remote Podman did not support shell redirection of container output
+
+### Misc
+- Updated vendored containers/image library to v5.0
+- Initial support for images using manifest lists has been added, though commands for directly interacting with manifests are still missing
+- Support for pushing to and pulling from OSTree has been removed due to deprecation in the containers/image library
+- Rootless Podman no longer enables linger on systems with systemd as init by default. As such, containers will now be killed when the user who ran them logs out, unless linger is explicitly enabled using [loginctl](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/loginctl.html)
+- Podman will now check the version of `conmon` that is in use to ensure it is sufficient
+
 ## 1.6.2
 ### Features
 - Added a `--runtime` flag to `podman system migrate` to allow the OCI runtime for all containers to be reset, to ease transition to the `crun` runtime on CGroups V2 systems until `runc` gains full support
