+Key Updates
+===========
+
+* Improvements to CLAMP Automation Composition Management (ACM)
+
+ CLAMP ACM is improved with new features and Failure handling capabilities. ACM can handle a restarted participant and send updates to the participant with the runtime data.
+ In addition, the user can also update instance properties on the deployed instances without impacting the ACM system. From Montreal release, the ACM participants can handle
+ multiple messages from ACM simultaneously. ACM configuration now supports customizable element names in the compositions.
+
+ See:
+ - `POLICY-4505 <https://jira.onap.org/browse/POLICY-4505>`_ - R13: Improvements specific to clamp
+
+* Migration functionality in ACM
+
+ From Montreal release, Users can migrate the deployed AC instances to a different composition definition with updated configurations without impacting the running system.
+
+ See:
+ - `POLICY-4809 <https://jira.onap.org/browse/POLICY-4809>`_ - R13: Instance Migration/Upgrade in ACM
+
+* Java 17 Upgrade
+
+ All the components in the policy framework are upgraded to java 17 version. Spring version upgraded to spring 6 and spring boot 3. This improves the overall performance of the
+ applications along with the latest java capabilities. Also this upgrade is very significant in removing the critical security vulnerabilities.
+
+ See:
+ - `POLICY-4665 <https://jira.onap.org/browse/POLICY-4665>`_ - R13: Java 17 and associated dependency upgrade
+
+* Remove AAF from Policy Framework
+
+ AAF project is deprecated in ONAP. Policy Framework is refactored to remove unused functionalities and configurations related to AAF.
+
+ See:
+ - `POLICY-4592 <https://jira.onap.org/browse/POLICY-4592>`_ - R13: Remove AAF from Policy Framework
