 ## Breaking changes
 
 (release-1.9.0-breaking)=
 ### Release 1.9.0
 
+* OSPF is no longer disabled in VRFs using EVPN symmetric IRB. That might break existing lab topologies using OSPF routers connected to EVPN-backed VLANs configured in IRB mode. If needed, disable OSPF in a VRF with **ospf: False**.
 * The [Graphite](tools-graphite) configuration file format has changed to adapt to the changes made to the [netreplica/graphite](https://github.com/netreplica/graphite) tool. If your browser fails to display the lab topology, reload the page or clear the browser cache.
 
 ## Bug Fixes

 ### Bug Fixes in Release 1.9.0
 
+* ebgp.multihop should use a dummy ifname for the pseudo-tunnel between EBGP endpoints
+* Make OSPF-over-VXLAN test more complex to require OSPF to work
+* Add Sphinx Dark Mode to dev requirements
+* Allow 'netlab connect' to pass a command to a tool
+* Improve the validation of 'validate' data structures, add hints and tests
+* Add 'links-as-a-dictionary' data structure
+* Make 'prefix_str' validator accept named prefixes
+* IS-IS needs IPv4 router-id for SR-MPLS to work
+* Do not use hostnames in Suzieq inventory (SuzieQ cannot use the host /etc/hosts file)
+* Use routing.policy.set device features to set BGP features in bgp.policy plugin
+* Need to wait a bit longer for OSPF convergence in VRF Lite test
+* Increase EBGP session setup wait timer in bgp.policy integration tests
 * Static VLAN VNI was rejected when a VLAN was used in a group
 * Use **netlab_show_config** Ansible variable to control the display of device configs during **netlab initial** process
