 * Two properties have been replaced by methods that require a type as parameter.
     * `Dispatcher.lifecycle_events` has been replaced by the method `Dispatcher.new_lifecycle_events_receiver(self, dispatch_type: str)`.
     * `Dispatcher.running_status_change` has been replaced by the method `Dispatcher.new_running_state_event_receiver(self, dispatch_type: str, unify_running_intervals: bool)`.
+* The managing actor constructor no longer requires the `dispatch_type` parameter. Instead you're expected to pass the type to the new-receiver function.
 
 ## New Features
