+### Changed
+
+- BREAKING: `stackable_versioned::ChangedValue`'s `value` field type is now `serde_json::Value` instead
+  of `yaml_serde::Value` ([#1307]).
+
 ### Fixed
 
+- Fix how the generated code (de)serializes enums in the tracking status ([#1307]).
 - Correctly handle tracked per-version changes across multiple containers ([#1306]).
