 ### Changed
 
+- `esp-radio` no longer (directly) requires unstable `esp-hal` features (#4601)
 - `phy_calibration_data` and `set_phy_calibration_data` are now marked as `unstable`. (#4463)
 - The `InitializationError::General` is replaced by `InitializationError::Internal` (#4467)
 - The `WifiError::InternalError` is removed and `InternalWifiError` was folded into `WifiError`, some variants renamed for clarity (#4467)
