Hi developers,

in order to support you with a smooth transition to upcoming DM 4.8 this posting lists the most significant breaking changes. Please test/adapt your plugins with current 4.8-SNAPSHOT. In case problems/bugs are revealed I still have the chance to fix them in the final release. DM 4.8 will be released at Apr 15.

Generally look for "BREAKING CHANGE" in the ticket comments.

- - Core model objects can't be instantiated with "new" operator anymore. Use the new model factory instead:
