 * Drop support for .NET 6 as this target is no longer supported.
   ([#2117](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet-contrib/pull/2117))
 
-* Added support for exporting metrics via
-  [user_events](https://docs.kernel.org/trace/user_events.html) on Linux when
-  OTLP protobuf encoding is enabled via the
-  `PrivatePreviewEnableOtlpProtobufEncoding=true` connection string switch. With
-  this, `PrivatePreviewEnableOtlpProtobufEncoding=true` is now supported on both
-  Widows and Linux. Windows uses ETW as transport, while Linux uses user_events
-  as transport.
