Comment below if there's a change in anaconda, initial-setup, blivet, or any other installer-related components in F31 that we should document in the relnotes.
Fedora Silverblue installer now supports pre-installed flatpaks.
The flatpaks will part of the installer installation image and will be always installed.
Network configuration module has been adapted to the changes caused by using NetworkManager for network configuration in initramfs, fixing several use cases broken by the change.
I am not sure if it is worth considering in relnotes though.
Storage DBus module The support for the Storage module is almost complete. However, Anaconda still uses its local storage object in Fedora 31. The storage-related code was cleaned-up.
Move all spokes to the Summary hub Spokes from the User Settings category were moved to the Summary hub. https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/2044
Hide spokes with the Anaconda configuration file The installer hides spokes specified in the hidden_spokes option of the Anaconda configuration file. The user interaction config file is no longer used for hiding spokes. https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/1981
Add the apply-updates script Run /usr/libexec/anaconda/apply-updates to download and extract the given updates image. Anaconda will use the updated files during the next run. https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/2010
Increase EFI System Partition (ESP) size to 200-600 MiB See the description at: https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/2124
Verify existing unlocked LUKS devices without keys (#1624617) An existing unlocked LUKS device cannot be used for the installation without an encryption key. The installer will show a warning and ask a user to rescan the storage.
Fall back to a boot drive with a valid stage1 device (#1168118) When the boot drive is not specified, try to find a disk with a valid stage1 device. Don't look for a disk with a /boot partition, because the partition doesn't have to be a valid stage1 device.
Switch between layouts without confirmation (#1333984) User should be able to switch between chosen layouts without accessing the keyboard spoke to approve the changed layout.
Parse the output of df correctly (#1708701) The installer failed to parse output of the df command if there was a device mounted at a path that contained white spaces.
Skip scaling if there is no primary monitor (#1592014) The installer shouldn't fail if no primary monitor is configured by the user.
Improved displaying of multiple IP addresses in Network GUI spoke (fixed issues in case of multiple IPv6 addresses). (#1593561) https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/2127

Minor changes in payload logic which is start of migration to Anaconda payload module.
-- if you think it should be part of the release notes too
Fix noverifyssl when downloading .treeinfo file (#1723811) Fix ssl error when downloading .treeinfo. The ssl error happens because the ssl check is not disabled even when inst.noverifyssl is used.
