+## [8.41.0] - 2021-07-21
+### New Features
+* Feature [#580](https://github.com/newrelic/newrelic-dotnet-agent/issues/580): Send initial app name and source in environment data. ([#653](https://github.com/newrelic/newrelic-dotnet-agent/pull/653))
+* Adds support for capturing stack traces for each instrumented method in a Transaction Trace.
+  * This feature is disabled by default.
+  * You can enable the capture of stack traces by setting either maxStackTrace to any value greater than 1.  This value will only be used to determine if stack traces are captured or not despite the name.
+  * The following are the default settings for stack traces. These can be changed using the newrelic.config:
+    * A maximum 80 stack frames are reported per stack trace.
+
+### Fixes
+* Fixes issue [#639](https://github.com/newrelic/newrelic-dotnet-agent/issues/639): RabbitMQ instrumentation can delete user headers from messages. Thank you @witoldsz for finding and reporting this bug. ([#648](https://github.com/newrelic/newrelic-dotnet-agent/pull/648))
