+
+### Notable Changes
+
+#### Corepack
+
+Node.js now includes Corepack, a script that acts as a bridge between Node.js projects and the package managers they are intended to be used with during development.
+In practical terms, **Corepack will let you use Yarn and pnpm without having to install them** - just like what currently happens with npm, which is shipped in Node.js by default.
+Please head over to the [Corepack documentation page](https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v16.x/docs/api/corepack.html) for more information on how to use it.
+
+Contributed by Maël Nison - [#39608](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/39608)
+
+#### V8 9.3
+
+V8 is updated to version [9.3](https://v8.dev/blog/v8-release-93), which includes performance improvements and new JavaScript features.
+
+#### [`Object.hasOwn`](https://v8.dev/features/object-has-own)
+
+`Object.hasOwn` is a static alias for `Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call`:
+
+```js
+Object.hasOwn({ value: 42 }, 'value'); // Returns `true`.
+```
+
+#### [Error cause](https://v8.dev/features/error-cause)
+
+Errors can now be optionally constructed with a `cause` option, pointing to another error.
+This adds a `cause` property on the new error:
+
+```js
+const error1 = new Error('Error one');
+const error2 = new Error('Error two', { cause: error1 });
+// error2.cause === error1
+```
