+      The annotation system has been extended with a new feature: project-specific annotations.
+      Extensions and other code that is not aware of this may experience strange behaviour
+      where annotation values may not change as expected or may change in unexpected ways.
+      For example, trying to change the default value of a project-specific annotation when
+      a project is active causes a new annotation to be created in the background instead
+      of changing the current one. Note that this feature is disabled by default and 
+      must be enabled per annotation type. Updating an existing server should be safe
+      and will not affect existing annotations or annotation types.
