November 2024
- Revision 16163 (Modified on 2024-11-19): Several issues discovered with non-core TK and MDR regarding signalr - stuff that we already knew but had forgotten about : SignalR for ASP.NET is NOT compatible with SignalR for ASP.NET.Core - this takes us on a long journey that results in us not being able to use mdriven.net.http.netstandard in non core builds but instead mdriven.net.http , this is a bummer for many reasons and probably something that will make us deprecate the None core builds soon

August 2024
- Revision 15891 (Modified on 2024-08-28): Checksum change - when we read model from code we did not account for constructors, since they were not included in the introspection call - this would give a constant diff between code with model introduced constructors and the model read from ModelLayer. The 2 are now synced to ignore constructors for checksum.

- Revision 15877 (Modified on 2024-08-22): WPF issue that showed as some DataGrids did not show more than 2 rows - scrolling in a visible area much smaller that the grid itself.
