+## Upgrade Notes
+
+OliveTin `3000.16.2` is a bugfix release focused on Windows packaging and
+upstream unit test stability. Upstream reports no upgrade warnings or breaking
+changes between `3000.16.1` and `3000.16.2`; keep the chart-managed config and
+persistent data paths unchanged when rolling production deployments.
