  Two published streams. The narrative release notes at docs.lakekeeper.io/about/release-notes/ (open source) and
  /about/enterprise-release-notes/ (Lakekeeper+) are hand-written highlights; CHANGELOG.md in the repo is generated
  from Conventional Commits and grouped into BREAKING CHANGES / Features / Bug Fixes. GitHub Releases carry the
  same content per tag and are available as an Atom feed.

  breaking_changes:
  - >-
    Default storage layout for new namespaces changed from <base>/<parent-namespace-uuid>/<tabular-uuid> to
    <base>/<tabular-uuid>. Not retroactive.
  - >-
    authz: CatalogRoleAction gains a non-unit variant and RoleAction is no longer Copy; downstream authorizers must
    handle UpdateSourceSystem.
  - >-
    authz: Authorizer::are_allowed_*_actions_impl now returns Result<Vec<AuthorizationDecision>, _> instead of
    Result<Vec<bool>, _>.
  - 'events: NATS and Kafka backends split into separate crates (lakekeeper-events-nats, lakekeeper-events-kafka).'
  - 'storage: lakekeeper-storage-postgres split into a separate crate.'
  highlights:
  - Generic Table API with Lance — non-Iceberg formats as first-class catalog objects with credential vending.
  - Pluggable post-authentication admission gates, which can contribute resolved roles and see the caller's token.
  - Multiple OIDC providers at once via LAKEKEEPER__OPENID_PROVIDERS.
  - Role-in-role membership with bounded nesting depth, plus an authorizer-independent role-membership API.
  - Customer-managed KMS encryption — warehouses with aws-kms-key-arn advertise s3.sse.type=kms.
  - Microsoft OneLake / Fabric storage profiles including workspace private-link endpoints.
  - Per-warehouse table format-version policy.
  - 'Downgrade protection: serve refuses to start against a database migrated by a newer binary.'
  - /health now returns 503 rather than 200 when unhealthy.

  - Customizable storage layouts using {uuid} / {name} placeholders on S3/GCS/ADLS.

  - 'Request size/time limits: LAKEKEEPER__MAX_REQUEST_BODY_SIZE (2 MB) and LAKEKEEPER__MAX_REQUEST_TIME (30s).'
  - Instance Admins — a server-wide admin role independent of project membership.
  - '`referenced-by` lookup to discover views referencing a table or view.'
