@@ -16,6 +16,7 @@ New features
 * Each `Dynamic` value can now contain arbitrary data (type `i16`) in the form of a _tag_. This is to use up otherwise wasted space in the `Dynamic` type.
 * A new internal feature `no_smartstring` to turn off `SmartString` for those rare cases that it is needed.
 * `DynamicReadLock` and `DynamicWriteLoc` are exposed under `internals`.
+* `From<Shared<Locked<Dynamic>>>` is added for `Dynamic` mapping directly to a shared value, together with support for `Dynamic::from`.
