  Porsche maintains a dated, per-release changelog for the Porsche Design System — the one
  Porsche surface with a public release history. The partner-gated API surfaces have their
  own changelog at developerhub.porsche.io/docs/change-log, but that path redirects to the
  Entra ID / KUMS MFA sign-in, so its contents could not be read.
