 * (light-clients/06-solomachine, light-clients/07-tendermint) [\#6891](https://github.com/cosmos/ibc-go/pull/6891) The `VerifyMembership` and `VerifyNonMembership` functions of solomachine's `ClientState` have been made private. The `VerifyMembership`, `VerifyNonMembership`, `GetTimestampAtHeight`, `Status` and `Initialize` functions of tendermint's `ClientState` have been made private.

 ```
 
+- The keeper handlers `RecvPacket`, `AcknowledgePacket`, `TimeoutPacket` and `TimeoutOnClose` now return the channel version, which the message server passes to the packet lifecycle application callbacks (`OnRecvPacket`, `OnAcknowledgementPacket` and `OnTimeoutPacket`). The channel version is useful when adding backwards compatible features to an existing application implementation (for example: in the context of ICS20 v2, middleware and the transfer application may use the channel version to unmarshal the packet differently depending on the channel version).

 ### 05-port
 
 - The signature of the `UnmarshalPacketData` function of the `PacketDataUnmarshaler` interface takes now extra arguments for the context and the port and channel identifiers. These parameters have been added so that implementations of the interface function can retrieve the channel version, which allows the provided packet data to be unmarshaled based on the channel version:
